The screen is not responsive when trying to open. The facial recognition is slowwwww. The phone comes on in my pocket. I don't recommend it.

Gsmarena should have a way to verify the comments people make on this otherwise great website.

Fingerprint sensor very bad! very slow and often it doesn't work. Sound is also bad! overall camera is fine but not excellent!
My suggestion is not to buy this phone. Huawei P10 was much better according to my experience.

I bought this phone in the last week of July 2021. The phone has a good battery size, display and speed is amazing. I loved the looks of the phone but it keeps freezing from time to time and the mic + speakers used to stop working so I had to restart the phone every time.

Super long standby time. At least future proof for 5G. Don't be fooled by the "HD Only" display. It's barely noticeable and is a vwry good tradeoff with the long standby time. Great phone indeed.

It is not fast charging. It takes 2hours to fully charge. I expect more for the camera but it is not good enough. This is not what I expect for Samsung. Buying Samsung, you are just paying for the name not the quality. Not pleased with this.

amoled plus 128 GB and 5g at a sales price under 300, from Samsung taking the leap. Presently using moto power but after a year the battery is starting to run out fast.

I bought the A42 5G about 3 weeks ago. Absolutely love it! The display is great, the overall performance is also great as is the battery life. It also came with Android 11. The fingerprint scanner also works great. And it has 128GB of memory. I use AT&T prepaid ($30/month plan) and never plan to use 5G. Also, I don't use my phone a lot, mainly for phone calls, so I don't take pictures or videos with it, use it to play games, etc. If I want to do those things I use a "real" camera or my 12" tablet which has a much larger screen. But just in case I need to take a picture, or check my email or get/send a text, I have the phone. This model replaces my 4 year old ZTE Blade Spark that had only 16GB of memory. I can now load a few more apps because of the 128GB of main memory. If you're the type of person that "lives" with your phone, this model may not be for you, but for me it is just great!

720p on 6.6in display w/60hz refresh rate = great battery life. 750G SoC = great performance.
