    This phone is pretty good even with the recent release of the S22. The performance is very nice with a 120hz screen and brought data from my iPad in good transition. Photo taking and video recording with the camera also gives great quality imagery.

    Purchased it for parent. Functions very similar to older model samsung phone. My parent has had easy time using it. However, it easily overheats. Which is a concern for my parent.

    Upgraded from S20FE for a very less price and a good upgrade. Don't compare with flagships if you are looking to buy this. But for this price, it is a good buy.
