Samsung Galaxy M31s - user opinions and reviews

I bought this phone a couple of moths ago.
It's been 4 years since I bought my last phone, so obviously Samsung M31s felt like a huge upgrade.
What I like:
Screen looks great, vivid colors and deep AMOLED blacks, camera cutout is tolerable.
Good battery life, phone survives 2 days even with prolonged gaming and watching youtube.
Camera quality is OK, haven't tested it a lot, though.
Performance is snappy enough, however, I'm comparing it with my previous 4 year old phone (Redmi 4 Prime), so my perceived speedy performance is a given.
What I don't like:
Side of the phone is an awkward placement for a fingerprint reader. Since phones are slim, side mounted fingerprint readers have less contact area so you have to place your finger at a correct angle for the reader to work. My previous phone with fingerprint reader on the back had way less failed finger reads due to finger being rotated in an angle.
Phone has no notification light, so you can't look at it and see if you have any missed calls or messages without unlocking it.
Bane of all today's phones - it is too large to comfortably operate with one hand.
Samsung Knox software occasionally pops up, asking to agree with their terms without option to safely disable it.
Audio jack is placed on the bottom edge of the phone - worst possible placement imo. Best placement would be left side of the top edge.
Overall, I'm happy with this phone. In 2 months since I bought it, I had no restarts, crashes or similar problems. I don't regret buying it.

This phone is just great, it has a reasonable price and amazing features. The quality and capacity of the battery are mindblowing. The quality of the screen too is really good. Overall an amazing phone.

The don't provide the 25W charger in every region where the phone is available
In Germany they only give you a 15W charger in the box
and you have to buy the bigger charger additionally yourself

I actually have got a phone. I bought it because I want android 10 phone and good camera phone. I have 3 problem with that phone.
Firstly when I download something from Google play is doesn't matter what kind of app is very slow to intall in the phone.
Secondly I put my nano sims and memory cards in and is stuck inside my phone nano sim tray. I can not open. I asked Samsung to solve it out because have 2 years warranty have a look. This is Samsung new nano sim tray technology which is series M31s have. I checked other type of phone which is Samsung I can not find this nano sim card tray.
Thirdly I bought in 31st of December that phone and already turned off once. I did not download any games on the phone just usual apps like bank etc.
(I changed my asus zenfone m1 because have the same problem.)
However I bought that phone because is Samsung and battery is big which I like it. But Is it really worth 279 pounds?
