To keep things simple, I got the Galaxy A15 after my Galaxy S20 got destroyed by my lawnmower. I only got it because I had a work phone at the time but no longer work at that company, so I am stuck with the A15. It's miserable and after looking at some of the prices for the newer Galaxy models, I'm floored that the minimum asking price is $800 for the S25.

Galaxy S24 FE has a deal for $500 at BestBuy for their 126 GB phone. I'd rather the 256 GB or higher for photo and video storage of the upcoming Baby BTB #2, but I can just swap those over to my laptop/SSD if I need to create space. Does anyone have a quick rundown on if the FE is worth it?

The FE is solid for the money yeah, much better than an A series for sure.

$490 S24 - swappa.com

That's unlocked and mint condition. You can find cheaper with carrier specific or good condition.

I very recently picked up an s24 to replace my old pixel3. They're hardware wise very similar to the s25 and are discounted by about about $250 at best buy. The SE is the more budget version but if the specs on it suit you well enough then go for it.

Once my little foray into trying an apple phone every 10 models is up, I’m going back to whatever iteration of the S# ultra is current. Had a 21 ultra and every other year release Galaxy S since S3 except for IPhone X and my current 15 pro max. I didn’t think cameras would be a big deal but the quality of the ultra line vs Pro Max is so stark that I’ll probably never repeat this experiment again. Viva the S ultra line
