I'm trying to figure out which phone to buy to replace my old Samsung Galaxy A3 with. Android 8, woefully lacking in storage space, and falling apart. Yeah, definitely needs replacing.
So I've been looking around. Glanced at the S20 FE and A33, both suggested by people I know. Then glanced over at the A53, even debated A52, but either they're too pricy or there's something not quite right in the reviews I've read that makes me hesistant to throw a lot of money at it.
I am still of the opinion that phones shouldn't be expensive. 200-ish euro should be fine enough.
I'm so tempted to just go eff it and buy an A13 4G instead. 175 euro, seems still sane, and the phone is in every aspect an improvement on my old A3 that I've managed to use for almost 5 years now. :P
I really will need to make a decision by tomorrow when it's Cyber Frigging Monday. I am hugely disappointed at the 'discounts' given so far around here.

@trinsec don't if you are familiar, but you can expand your internal space with an SD card. The phone should have an initial setup option for the card. Recently did it with my phone and chose internal over external storage. So what you really need to check is what the largest supported SD card is.

@barefootstache Oh yeah, AND IT DOES NOT HELP*cough* sorry, for screaming. Lemme restart:
It doesn't help that apps like Whatsapp and Telegram won't save the images and videos to external. It's always internal. And my bro, and my deaf friends, they always send me videos...
Yeah, fun(!)

@barefootstache I delete data regularly too.
I just don't want to anymore!

@trinsec idk if you understood me correctly earlier when I mentioned that you can use the SD card as internal storage and thereby losing external storage altogether unless you manually exchange the cards or have another slot.

@barefootstache Aaaah! Well, there's still the problem of having an old Android version and that certain apps I want to be using don't work well on it anymore. :/
Stuff is getting slow too, because the apps all are getting updated and become bloatier.

@trinsec one thing I did a long time ago is deactivate automatic download for media. Plus I delete that data regularly.
If only those videos came with an alt tag...
