My Experience Using The Samsung Galaxy A03s by Sijiade77(m): 8:15am On May 03, 2022
Months ago, I remember opening a thread on this platform, seeking for advice on if I should buy the tecno spark go 2021 or the Samsung A02 & almost all the advice I got pointed me towards getting the Tecno spark go & I was given reasons why I shouldn't even thing of buying the Samsung A02.
So, I made further research & then i found the Samsung galaxy A03s grin it was above my budget but I really wanted to buy it cuz it fit all I needed in a smartphone & I wanted to experience the pride in being recognised as a Samsung User. cool
I bought the phone (3GB variant) price being btw 69 to 75 thousand Naira, depending on memory option.
My first Month of using the Samsung a03s was surprisingly wonderful. Performing day to day tasks was a breeze I rarely experienced any lags & even on few occasions that I did, it didn't last longer than 1.5 to 2 seconds. I know some may say it's because I'm not a heavy gamer but even with light gaming, such as PUBG lite, Angry Birds 2 & even Asphalt 9, the Galaxy A03s really did well & I enjoyed its smooth performance. From my own experience, Multi tasking btw social media apps doesn't even put any form of strain on the A03s processor, even while they're still running in the background. Though the A03s gets alittle bit warm when used for long, it doesn't in anyway affect its performance.
Moving to the battery life of the phone. The 5000mah battery really held its own. I was able to get a full day battery life on the phone with about 18% left to spare tongue & i usually have a 12 to 13 hour screen on time, Average being 9 hours sometimes.
As for the Camera, I discovered it didn't do too well taking pictures in dark places & they were really low quality but that all changed if those pictures were taken in a well lit environment. The pictures turned out to be really really great & I even tried comparing picture quality btw the A03s & an Iphone X & it really really did well, way beyond my expectations. But it is important to note that the iPhone X took better low light shots. To make up for that, I guess Samsung Further added a pro mode which allows you to really tweak the camera & make images appear even more realistic & as vibrant as you want. So I've been able to take Amazing pictures with the device under good lighting. This applies to both the front & back Camera.
And finally, as for the Software update so far, I've only already received the April Security update & Samsung has promised that the A03s will receive the android 12, plus OneUI 4.1 update by June or July. So fingers crossed they'll hopefully keep to their word.

In conclusion, will I recommend the Samsung galaxy A03s to anyone with a budget of 69 to 80 thousand Naira, to buy? My answer is yes. Cuz it's a really good value for the money. And with that, you'll enjoy full Customisation experience on the phone, good battery life, smooth lag free experience (depending on the the kind of user) and a decent photography experience...

Nice read ..

I have been skeptical, jus a little bit at buying a Samsung mobile.

Okay the this is this, I have a budget of 80-85k for a Samsung Mobile. I taught of the s9 or the A12 ..

Your detailing about the Ao3s sound like a hype can you post the photo here and what other Samsung product can I get for that price ?..

the S9 has a very solid build quality I like but I think Samsung has stopped all updates for that phone, your best bet will be the S10 but at almost double the price.

Op: I saw the A03 yesterday for 69k and it surprisingly has a better build quality than higher spec phones like the A22 and A23. It looks like really solid, I like it. Keep us updated on your experiences though

I tried uploading some pictures but it isn't working out.
And if you feel my review of the A03s is a hype then you can ask any other user of the same phone. I'm certain they'll have mostly positive things to say about the device cheesy
You can also watch YouTube videos to guide your buying decision & get a device that best suits you.

As for other Samsung phones within that price range, I'd say the older Galaxy A12 it comes with a way better camera & figuration & also more storage options. Also we have the Galaxy a02s, and the newly launched Galaxy A13. Its more expensive than the rest sha wink

The Galaxy A03 is different from the Galaxy A03s & it is also different than the Galaxy A03core.

Even though the first & last devices are supposed to be the lower version of the A03s, the Galaxy A03 surprisingly has the better processor & better Camera amongst the 3 devices.
Though the A03s offers more on the table like the Type C charging port, side mounted fingerprint, a macro camera & to me, better design & general look & feel. But all these are absent on the A03 & A03core...

Okay thanks, your review on the Ao3s tickles my fancy a bit seems unusual.

I taught of A12 or 13 too but I will figure it out soon because I won't want to go beyond my budgeted amount, however I can also add the Ao3s to my review list.
