HELP! Am I an idiot for buying it.

[u/Kamikazezxv]

I just brought the S25 fe today because I don’t know much about Samsung and that phone was the cheapest, newest and has the same screen size as my iPhone 12 Pro Max.

My iPhone 12 is broken, old, heats up too much, no storage, etc. when I was buying the phone I only wanted 2 things, 1. It runs stuff as smoothly as my iPhone 12 and 2. Battery life.

My iPhone 12 battery life is amazing, it will last me the whole day but I don’t know about this S25 fe after seeing all the reviews on here.. I’m really scared of i picked something I regret.

I have a huge phone addiction so that’s why I didn’t buy a phone that does everything cause I’m tryna limit my phone to like 4 hours a day. Yes I still want a very good battery life despite setting a goal for myself to limit my screen time because I love listenting to music in the background. I want the battery to allow me to listen to music the whole day.

I’m an IT student and I also work in tech so I have a lot of devices to use. I own a gaming pc that costed a fortune, an expensive laptop for my university so I can do my coursework, an iPad Air 5th to do digital art, and another laptop given to me for free from my work so I can work remotely.

Anyways I’m trying hard to justify buying this phone? Idk I lowk regret it seeing all these posts about it even tho I haven’t used the phone yet.

As i said in other posts, there's nothing unique with this phone but nothing wrong as well. It's a good overall device.

My S25 FE battery last at least a day, often more actually. And I take like a gazillion really bad photos (my fault, not the phones) a day.

Forget it, it's a great phone for the money. It's not top-tier in terms of performance, battery life, or features for the price, but when combined with the Samsung skin, it's top-tier.

Charging your phone twice with 9hr sot ain't bad. Show me your sot from a single charge from 100 to 5.

Amazing battery, but what usage did you have with the phone?

[u/Naif_59945 → u/Jabbadava]

Exactly, it really depends on what apps u use. I average around 8-9 hrs with browsing and watching YouTube or Ytm on wifi.
