    I’ve been doing mobile device management at my last company and we handed out whatever the latest a series was, to our coworkers, for especially the cost and security factor.

    And with the A52 I think, they have become really really decent phones in my opinion, I really don’t know what the hell the writer is fumbling about.

    I mean personally it’s not my favorite UI and I would take my pixel any day over it, but it worked so well and was so fluid, for a simple midrange phone. Again, not my cup of tea, but for someone like my mom or whoever just needs a phone for basic social media, calls, texts, decent camera and the web… This is perfectly fine. Now I’d still get her a pixel a series over it because the cam is just perfect imo, but if someone prefers Samsung UI, the a series is incredible.

    Plus idk what their current state is but Dex might already be there? Or is coming soon? Judging by the latest Xcover that got it, which also just sports a midrange processor.

      Dex isn’t available on the A/M series phones, I think. The A90 supposedly has it, though? I think it depends more on I/O capabilities (Dex on a phone is pretty useless without USB 3.0/DisplayPort) than on CPU speed.
