Phone gurus in the house, i just sold my tanssion phone, so i want to upgrade to a better phone with a good chipset.
I have a budget of 170- 180k, I'm considering buying galaxy a52 or a72

Please someone should advise me.

Get A52, if you need bigger screen then get A72. The 2 are good samsung phones, you won't regret getting any of the 2.

It's not new. It's very well refurbished though. And is most likely US used. Big difference between the UK variant and the US variants

I guess we are on the same page.

After intensive findings, comparisons and my budget. I ended up with Samsung A52s and A72.

But will have to consider Samsung A52s over A72 . Because of its OS and 5G network.

So what's the difference between two of them except the 5g network, and do you know the recent price.
I want to buy any of them by the end of the month.

Look for a better way of spending the 170k to give you ROI to secure your future.

You know he can sell the phone in 2 years for more than 100k if all goes well. So which one is securing his future with the 170k. He kukuma didn't say he is emptying his savings to buy the phone. Abi which wahala is this.

I don't know why I'm so pissed by this

but which can you use for 6 years with constant update and same stable firmware as it was when you bought it? This is why I use and recommend iPhones , not cos of performance , customization and effizy.

then good luck with 4hours battery life, plus low screen resolution and limited apps plus the enomous amount spent to buy the phone, money u could use to get a good android and invest the rest or maybe the hardship of the country is far from you. I sit at the pos and iphone 12 users coming to withdraw 1k when me can't remember when I withdraw 5k last bit maybe coz I have expenses anyway but if u are rich enough for iphone u shouldn't be using public transportation then. If I didn't own an iphone that's different but bro my iphone is to make calls only but for everything I do online I rely on my Android. Iphone updates comes with bugs to kill older iphones or haven't u heard they even got sued for it but still didn't stop.
Imagine having that s21 ultra, imagine what I can accomplish online.

you practically stated your issue was PRICE , yet you mention s21 ultra, forgetting the s21 ultra cost more than the 13 pro max with the best battery on a smartphone today? Are you personally choosing to just make a moot argument or you personally makes posts without facts?

That's the American variant for the S10+. While a lot.of people say the Snapdragon processor in these are the best, I don't like them because the bootloaders on these are permanently locked without hope of being unlocked. So when Samsung stops sending updates you are basically stuck.

My point exactly, and someone is attacking me, samsungs fancy screens require very careful usage, not for just anyone.

I use iphone 11 the screen damage,I resale and add money and get 11 pro and the glass back damage

So I decided to go back to Samsung S10 plus and I have been super careful with it,I carry around like it's my heart,it fall ,I die lol �
