This focus on speed in processors and phones, I think, is silly. They need to have good speed and great build. Having the absolute-latest tech, I just don't see it as essential.

I strongly disagree with this argument. Yes, you don't need the absolute latest stuff, but selling stuff that's 3 years out of date, in this field specifically, is a scam. Whether you want it or not, the tech behind your apps moves on, and buying something old today moves you that much closer to inevitable deprication of your device

And even then, the exynos version in Europe still is weaker....

I mean, sure, but that's what the FE series has usually been. The current flagship processor with some strategic corners cut to give you a better price.

I'm sure this is going to be a fine phone, but it doesn't feel like an FE. Why not just buy a Galaxy S22?
