According to me it is a best phone because it has 720p display which enough for human eyes and do not feel any difference until you place it next to 1080. a slight difference is not a big problem but it a lot favor while playing heavy games as 720p screen always puts lesser load than that of 1080p screen.
Samsung always uses high quality hardware which promises long life which also adds value to my money.
so far I did so many thing including video editing for you tube channel and playing as well as recording screen at time. yet no lag was experienced.
as this pones lacks led notification light and finger print scanner can be compensated with it’s highest level of performance.
I will say it is a amazing phone. I have been listen that the audio quality is very low. but I personally tested it out and felt that it above average which fair enough to fulfill all your needs and audio on the head phones is also out standing and no other can compete with Samsung’s display and audio via headphones.
