F41 for?Did you get any discount on your purchase?From where did you buy your phone from?
I purchased the Samsung Galaxy F41 for ₹15500.I got a discount of 1000 rupees for exchanging one of my old phones which was a Nokia 1.I bought the phone from Flipkart.

There are many reasons to choose the Samsung Galaxy F41.The Super AMOLED display on the phone is one of the primary reasons.The 6000 mAh battery also ensures my device never dies on me.The One UI software experience is also a reason I opted for this phone.

3)What phone were you using before this?

Prior to this phone,I was using the Redmi Note 8 as my daily driver.

4)How long do you intend to use this device?

I intend to use the Samsung Galaxy F41 as my daily driver for at least 2-3 years.

5)How is the battery life in the phone in your usage?
Honestly speaking,during this lockdown,my daily usage has gone up.Going by my requirements,I had needed to charge my phone at least 1.5 times a day to get a full day battery life.For normal usage,one charge can help you go through your day.

6)What are the things you think has room for improvement in the phone?

The phone definitely needs to consider a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor keeping in mind the price tag.The charger needs to be improved and should at least support 18 W output.The entire frame and the back is made up of polycarbonate.Though,it feels durable,the back feels cheap.

7)Will you recommend it to others?

 I would recommend the phone to anyone who doesn't put much stress on the chip.
Definitely,not made for gamers.However,it is okayish for video editing and rendering.

8)Do you regret your purchase by  means?

Considering the price bracket,I don't regret it.

9)How much you trust Samsung as a company?Also mention the reason why? Please give your answer on a scale of 1 to 5.

I would rate 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for Samsung.They are the only Android device maker who are really focused on privacy and optimisation.

10)This phone is powered by the Exynos 9611 chip.That chipset is based on the 10 nm fabrication process.Do you think it is powerful enough?

No,actually the chip is actually the weakest part of the phone.You cannot game on this and even normal users can experience certain frame drops in the UI,especially in the camera application.


11)Will you ever consider to go to the iOS system after this phone?

As per me,iPhones have never been stand alone device.It needs to be merged with an Android gadget or device at some point of time.However,I will consider iOS in the future.

The concept of cancel culture lacks a universally agreed-upon definition. Most definitions centre around themes of accountability but diverge regarding their impact. Cancel culture is a blend of fun and fury that exposes ...
