Spotted this yesterday
Samsung Galaxy A22 4GB
128GB Storage, AMOLED 90hz, Network Unlocked
for $289, usually around $350
An Alright budget phone for most people
Also Available at Bing Lee for the same price

CamelCamelCamel.
The A22 4G probably needs to be reduced now since the A22 5G now has the same RRP at Samsung ($349 for each)
They are actually different phones:
4G = AMOLED HD Screen, Better Cameras, Slower Processor
5G = LCD but FHD Screen, Not as good Cameras, Slightly Faster Processor
this looks like the successor to an old ozbb favourite the a20, a phone i absolutely hate even for the price

mtk shit all round and maybe it has nfc, roll the dice
The whole leaving NFC out was a sly move by Samsung when most folk would just by default assume its present. Saved on manufacturing a whole 25c probably.
Yep my A20 is awful! Its so slow to respond you press a second time causing whatever you originally tried to open to close again.
Nah. Save your money and wait for a mid-range phone to go on sale.
$289 is too much.
samsung tax bro
that $200 tcl 10 from jb blows this shit out of the water, too bad limited stock
samsung tax has 3 years OS + 4 years security , right ?
What u mean?
This is super cheap for a flag ship
Whats hundai?
Not even a flagship in Optus' prepaid range.
Before buying check if this has NFC or not. The version released here did not, but the reviews mainly from overseas wont mention it.
You wont be able to use Google Pay , Samsung Pay etc.
A downgrade from the A20 which had NFC.
it doesnt
if you google the model number multiple sites says it lacks nfc
i'm of the opinion samsung removes some vital options so you move up to an a52 or whatever
at this point you may as well get the cheapest S20 4/128 5G model and stuff this cheap nonsense… I mean if you must have samsung, i know a lot of people who are flat out Samsung whores, note quite as bad as apple whores but still up there
I know people who think the only phones are either apple or samsung..
I'm looking at a new phone for the misses
6.5" or lower and under 200gram
Decent battery
AMOLED screen
decent camera array with OIS
No gaming requirement, no 5g requirement, no NFC requirement
Sub $300
Been waiting for the Motorola G41 to be released, but no date yet. A22 "4G" seams to tick all the boxes? whats the issue with it? any other alternatives out there?
Currently has a Xiaomi Mi A3, but it dying on her, even after a full reset
