I actually did consider this phone because it's small and wireless charging. I also miss Samsung Pay. But I'm reluctant the same way I'm reluctant buying an Apple Watch Series 3. If I bought the watch, Apple will just force me to update the software. Then it gets laggy or the battery is shot. Then I have to go purchase a newer one. Their AirPods is the same way with their sealed batteries. Endless cycle.
I had an S7 edge and it always forced me to update to Samsung's software when I didn't want to. On my Pixel 3 and Essential Phone, I get a small notification window popping up telling me the software is out of date. I just press the home / pill button for it to go away and it won't bother me again until maybe another week. Not as obtrusive as iOS either.
Sometimes I feel software updates acts as a Trojan horse or malware to ruin your flawless phone experience in order to force you to buy the newer ones. If Samsung keeps forcing us to update to their software, then don't buy them. It's our property. We have the right to do what we want with it.

Got android 10 December security patch uk dec 3rd
jack, 19 Nov 2019that's samsung monopoly they will send u virus via update and no phone will last more than 2 years.Nonsense. I have a samsung j5 2017 and it works even better now then when i got it. The 2 android updates that i received so far were awesome, from android 7 to 9 :)
And it is not even a midrange anymore. The high end stuff like s10 should be much better.
All that i can complain about samsung phones is the battery life. This is the thing that becomes worse and worse :)
But performance is good
