Hey bro, good to see you on the LYN forum! I've followed some of your video reviews on YouTube and must say you do a great job overall - but I do notice you get a little excited every now and then and you speak really fast at times! Still, it's refreshing to see quality English-speaking tech reviews from our local guys. Do keep up the good work!
I've tried plenty of phones over the years, and when it comes to a Samsung phone with Exynos chips, a couple of aspects often get overlooked by reviewers, both local and foreign - the signal strength and the standby battery drain. These are vastly inferior to Snapdragon-powered Samsung phones based on my experience. I cringe when YouTubers test battery life by looping a video or playing games continuously for hours and hours and then summarize the phone's battery life to be good or bad based on that - that's just not how we use our phones in real life. Also, I don't see many reviewers addressing signal strength and/or GPS accuracy which matters more to a non-gamer like me rather than raw power and performance - most modern chipsets have more than sufficient juice under the hood these days. So maybe that's something you can look at in your future in-depth reviews!
Oh, and someone needs to talk about all the bloatware in One UI

Anyways, I had the A52S and agree with you - it was one of the best midrange phones released last year and it was value-for-money too, especially since I bought it for just slightly over RM1.5k. Won't go anywhere near these new A and M series phones now that they are using Exynos after my experience with them, haha! Maybe we're seeing a shift in strategy for Samsung in Malaysia - use Snapdragon for flagship phones and Exynos for midrange instead of the other way around for years now...
Haha interesting

Hey man! Thanks for the feedback and yeah I do get excited very easily when I see phones!
Yo man we should meet up for coffee sometime if you're in Klang Valley. Would love to hear your thoughts more on the Exynos. And perhaps maybe I can pinjam u my A33 or A53 for a few days to test out yourself
There's always 2 sides to the coin and I'd love to hear more!
Good luck on the road to 100,000 subs
Getting silver button has always been local youtube aspirations

My favorite local still is Kummar Family 100,000 in just 365 days hahahaha
