I have decided to buy this vivo mobile phone because my Samsung Galaxy
A32 5G mobile phone SGD$338 has now become extremely slow in
performance and lags like hell.
Opening and using many apps is now a slow and painful experience. The
phone camera is even worse. Taking a photo or selfie takes 2-3
seconds. If you move the phone by a bit before the 3 seconds is up,
your photo or selfie will turn out very blur. So you need to set a
timer of 2 seconds when you take a selfie or photo. Taking videos with
the phone camera is also very laggy and choppy. The recorded video
will turn out to be choppy.

I had bought the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G mobile phone SGD$338 on 6 Oct
2021. I have used the Samsung mobile phone for 1 year 11 months 10
days [ALMOST 2 YEARS] (as of 16 Sep 2023 Sat) and it is getting slower
and slower by the day.

I need to ask manufacturer Samsung why my Samsung mobile phone is
getting so slow and laggy. Is it because it is too cheap and too low
end??

I certainly hope my vivo mobile phone is a good purchase and it will
last me for another 5-6 years without getting slow and laggy.

My bank balance as of 16 Sep 2023 Sat is SGD$3,483. I am 45 years old.
That is all and everything I have, besides a HDB 2-room RENTAL flat
under the Public Rental Housing Scheme meant for the EXTREMELY POOR in
Singapore.
