No mind am, the guy just dey argue anyhow since, instead make him research and learn.

The thing dey annoy me as I dey read am sef, but it's Nairaland and it is a free world. Everyone Is entitled to their opinion.

Lovepeacetrust:
Yes I opened a thread about it, because if we compare some midrangers to old flagships, old flagships are superior.
Okay I haven't used a good midranger from Samsung before, and correction I know what I'm talking about, you're actually the one talking based on feelings and you're not sounding like someone that knows how phones work at all.

The main issue here is even a note 10 plus vs a73.
And your points were android updates and battery over a note 10 plus, we still hear battery.
We are not in 2013, if your phone stops recieving andriod updates it's not the end of the world.
Note 10 plus is superior, who dey argue this kind thing sef, lmao.

Don't bring A51 and S9 plus, if you want to do that open a thread for it, this thread was for the note 10 plus and A73.

P.S I'm still dissapointed

Auskyd:
Have you used the A73?

Have you used the note 10 plus?

My guess is no.

So me wey don use both no sabi wetin I dey talk abi?

You guys think I'm saying the a73 is better. I'm not saying that. I'm saying if you were to choose one over the long term, the A73 is better. Shikena.

It's the smarter choice. If I put a casing on the A73 and didn't tell you the series, you'd think it's a flagship. That's how good that phone is. Enter any store and check. No be by blind argument.

Auskyd:
People wey dey use better devices dey talk, Transsion user sef dey chook mouth lmao. Abeg leave me this guy

Lovepeacetrust:
No I haven't, so if I have a decision to make, buying a note 10 plus vs A73 tomorrow, because i haven't used it I wouldn't know which one would be better?

Okay so you're not saying it's better? Lmao.
Just for longevity as per software updates abi?
So you'd ignore everything the note 10 plus has over it because of software updates?
How is it smart? You're not even getting better value for money on the A73 compared to a note 10 plus. So how is that a smart investment ?

Lovepeacetrust:
The fact say him dey use transsion device no mean say e no sabi better thing, if money dey and he buy s22 ultra tomorrow, you no go dey talk this kind thing

Effulgent:
You are obviously immature. Anyways, I guess ignorance is bliss.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Auskyd:
You're mentioning investments? Is it because you want to resell? Samsung as weak resell value over time. The moment you leave the shop, it loses 10% of it's value lol. Ask people on Nairaland who sell it. Na panic we take dey sell am because if you don't sell it as soon as you get it, you'd sell at a loss. And again, you're getting the very same thing you'd get on a note 10 plus and more.

Go and watch YouTube videos and see.

Gaming A+
Camera A
Battery A
SOT A

Updates. 4 android updates over just one for the note 10 ( and that's in mid 2023 that's right, it will not see android 13 before the A73 lmao)

Wireless charging? Yes.

So other than the s-pen and the glass back? What exactly is that thing the note does better than the A73?


Tell me.

Lovepeacetrust:
No I wasn't talking about resale value, I'm talking about the fact that you'd purchase something lesser and still get more from the price you're getting it.
Compare the Note 10 plus price now. What midranger can you get with that price that the Note 10 plus wouldn't demolish? The A73 is now even more expensive, and that's the reason I'd always use an old flagship instead of a mid ranger. It's more value for a lesser price. That's investment, you'd save money.

So Note 10 plus scores B minus for everything abi, every thing that you mentioned the Note 10 plus is better than the A73 at it except for the battery, the SOT and battery works hand in hand they can't be seperate categories.

Better Screen, forget the 120hz display on the A73 it's just to make animations look smoother, a wqhd over it anyday, it's even 1080p again, Better Cameras on the note 10 plus abeg, Better performance, the chipset on the Note 10 plus is superior, you already mentioned build quality, wireless charging, reverse wireless charging dey, wetin dey phone again wey you wan compare?
Which thing are you now getting on A73 and more, where's the more, the A73 falls slightly behind the note 10 plus on all these thing I've mentioned.

Oya bros wetin android updates wan do for you like this? Na why you kuku dey back A73.

Auskyd:
Hehehe bro have you used a 120htz screen before? Cos if you have, you wouldn't be saying this thing. Cameras, the A73 has a better front facing camera than the note 10. Go check am. For pictures, it takes really good pictures unless you are into photography.

Saying the A73 scores an A doesn't automatically means the note 10 plus scores a B in them. I wonder where you got that from (na Naija way of arguing, na so una dey do).

Android updates are crucial to a device. The best devices will lag and stutter one day because the OS on them is not agile enough to carry the weight of the apps that come with them. Do you think promising 4 updates was just a gimmick? Have you seen what lagging on a phone can do to you? Bro no dey talk this thing for outside. Updates is one of the top reasons people stick with a brand. Optimization is everything!
.all your tech YouTubers don't play with it.

The note 10 is a very very capable device. Very very good one. It will do the job just fine and you'll enjoy it like mad.

I'm just telling you that if you are going to pick one, pick the A73. Glass, glass, but when una buy phone, first thing is to put a case on it. So what's the difference, really?

Lovepeacetrust:
Boss I don operate phone with 90 hertz and 120 hertz abeg, I go still choose Samsung's flagship wqhd over it. If it's 1080p
So na front camera you use as rebound as per camera, you sef know say case no dey for that department, note 10 is better.

I meant that statement sarcastically, I didn't mean the note 10 plus scores a B, na you no understand sarcasm.

Yes updates are important but you're making sound like old flagships would be lagging like hell, chai, me wey I dey use s8+ snapdragon version, I don't see a single lag for basic activities, and that's a phone from 2017, I handled a pixel 2xl the other day, and I was like mehn, it was still smooth, no cap, but it was on android 11, and my time with it, I didn't see much difference between it and my s8+, and they're both 2017 flagships.
Not to talk of a 2019 flagships, 5 years from now, the lag on the note 10 plus would be minimal and you would only see it when playing latest games on high settings, not for normal use.

And glass glass wasn't the reason I was choosing it over A73 lol.

Auskyd:
Anyways, we can always agree to disagree. It's a free world like that Infinix guy said. No wham my guy.

Make we leave the matter. I'm sure OP has gotten enough insight to help her make a choice.

Onyeka90210:
If OP were concerned about software update he won't be putting up a three year old phone for comparison.
You really fall my hand boss, I think say you be android guy.
You'll pick 8gb ram, fhd, midrange processor, cheap build, no wireless charging or reverse wireless charging, plastic build over 12gb ram, wqhd, flagship processor, Gorilla glass 6, aluminum build, 4k 60fps, both cameras, 45w fast charge, wireless charging. Nawa oh.
Na your choice still
But op never mentioned anything about software update, the note 10 plus burns out the a73. It's a no brainer.
