This problem started after I installed their latest patch didn't have t... moreApparently this kind of issue is true with most of the midrangers out there regardless of brand. This is a hardware issue and is becoming mainstream due to the proliferation of BT headphones (WiFi 2.4GHz and BT naturally interferes with each other). The design is mainly motivated by cutting corners on the manufacturer's side by possibly using one antenna for both. What they can do is just to lessen the possible impact but the behaviour would still be the same (sharing would possibly halve the throughput of each when both were actively transferring data). IDK how you've done your testing but if one-antenna notion is true, try moving a file locally (LAN) via WiFi (BT off) and measure the speed. Then test again this time with BT ON, BT earphones connected and playing a music file then check your WiFi speed. Create a discussion in Samsung forum using the same procedure, share screenshots with each other because that's what a community forum is all about.

It makes the phone lighter anyway, and most people will be using a case. The charger is fine for me at 15W, I can charge from 0 to 100 in less than 2 hours.

Plastic body with plastic back. Only front panel not highly protected. Used just gorilla glass 3! I expected at least gorilla glass 5. Charger is only 15w, I expected at least 25W. So guys, wait for Poco 2 only 19k.

but I suppose to it is a software problem because during using Bluetooth, phone goes slow down and sometimes the screen is freeze.
In the 21st century, we couldn't use Bluetooth without WIFI because, nowadays many people using online music players like Spotify, etc.

Lol, I'm not even into Samsung phones I'm just an enthusiast in photography, photography does not limit itself with brand, photography rules/concepts are still true whichever phone brand you have. That's why I asked you if you're experienced in handling ultra wide cameras because you're comparing two different ultrawide angle cams with different specs and expect the identical result.

AnonD-913344, 29 Jan 2020I can confirm the Bluetooth issue. I have it too.Is your WiFi ON during your testing? If it is then try turning it OFF. If your BT transmission improves then you can safely conclude that the BT and WiFi module shares the same antenna. :)

I was a happy user of A50 for the last 6 months. I bought an A51 10 days before and this are my thoughts compared with my prewious A50:
Display- Amazing. It will look strange with its tall size the first days but u will love it after.
Primary Cam- a little bit better than A50 both day and night.
Ultra-Wide-Angle Cam- With 12 mp finally usable. With A50 a took a maximum of 2-3 photos because its poor quality.
Macro Cam- I dont use it, gimmick for me. I would be better a telephoto cam.
Selfie Cam- i opened both phones cameras parallelly and the result was terrible for my new A51. Color and detail way better in A50. 35 mp what?!! A51 selfie cam looks like a old 5mp cam 4-5 year ago. I dont understand this step back from Samsung.
Performance- a little bit smoother tha A50.
Speaker- a little bit louder than A50 and sound quality too.
Design- feels classy ang comfortable in hands. My friends thought that i bought the new S20 :)
Battery- the same managment as A50, so good.
Final thought: If it was not for the poor selfie cam A51 would be the top midrange phone of the year.
