I just wanted to show that there could be instances were quality sound could be important to the user.
For example:
From my screen shot, when James Young and Tommy Shaw break into the twin guitar solo during Come Sail Away, James is in the left channel, and when Tommy comes in, it's in the right channel..., it really fills the spectrum.
On the A17 it sounds like a sh*tty mono Bell telephone earpiece from the 1950's!!! :cool:

Oh I believe. I mean two times 17 is only 34. :D

They had to save money somewhere. :/

Hey..., buy another A17..., you might be on to something there... :unsure:

Out of interest, do you actively use your various Samsung phones?

I do have 3 phones (Samsung s22+, Iphone 14 Pro Max and Samsung S25 FE).

I rarely use S22 or Iphone. The iphone was bought as it was only iphones which bluetooth connected to my oticon hearing aids. However I ended up getting phonak aids which connect to any classic bluetooth transmitting device, so iphone is more or less retired from general use.

The s22+ is prinarily just a back up to S25 FE if it failed or got lost/stolen. The primary reason I keep it us it has ultra wide band bluetooth (UWB) which makes finding galaxy smart tags more precise so I can find tagged misplaced keys around the house.

Nice thing about S series phones and iphones are that they use esims and you can have multiple esims on phone albeit only two max are active at any one time.

Not entirely.
The A52 is obsolete, stuck on Android 14,
the A54 is up to date, I mainly use it as a testing device,
the A35 is my daily driver,
and, the A17 was intended to be my new backup..., I bought it on a whim cuz it was cheap, still supports a 1.5TB SD Card, and was promised 7 years of updates.

A longtime lurker here, so I think this is my first post. :-)
I had to purchase a like new S25+ which came with UI 8.0 to use with my new Jabra (ReSound ENZO IA) hearing aids as the phone supports LE Audio for hands free calling and the aids support Auracast. My last pair of hearing aids were Phonak which lasted me eleven years. My backup phone is a A53 5G which received it's last update to UI 8.0 .
