    Has anyone experienced IC failing- my A33 5G after 2 years of usage- my phone keeps switching off & restarting and shows green line display and then permanently going off

    I am told my IC has packed up & need to be replaced as phone is no longer switching on

    It's very frustrating after only 2 years and IC is malfunctioning which i suspect due to overheating

    Anyone faced similar/ same issues

        It's a good for a mid ranged phone. I've used it for about two years now.
        Issues i had with the phone, the vibration store working after a year. Then the phone lags soo bad when using WhatsApp. Just WhatsApp because all other apps work fine. I didn't try to reinstall the WhatsApp to see if the issue will be resolved ttho. The is good enough, but terrible in low light situations.
        It seems most talk about the auto zoom being broken as well, not show it's broken it just needs some extra work.
        My favorite features are the food lens, and the macro lens, they really do image capturing justice.
        To those that care about status, it looks and feels nice and identical to the flagship phones as well.
        The battery life dwindled after the first year too. I just turn of my connection when I don't need.

                        The phone is pretty good but at times after upgrading it begins to slow down and the cameras are great

                                Over all the phone is good,but the battery life is altogether disappointing.Never seen such a phone at this prise range having this kind of worst battery.I have to charge it more often.Let alone the day it doesnt has a half day battery backip.

                                    hi. i got my A33 5g just this March (2023). i generally love it - the screen is bright, the display colors and smoothness is great, the camera is also great (tho i still have to get used to how to manage the focus lol)
                                    i guess i just don't like that it didn't come shipped with a charger, esp. since it only includes a type-c to type-c cable (i thought it would be usb to type-c, could've used my old samsung charger). the AOD is also missed.
                                    but i wanna know if others have the same exp: i got a Baseus charging cable that's usb to type-c, thinking i could charge via my old chargers and my PC. but on the PC, while charging and storage access are recognized, it seems like it's still not enough to power to actually charge. so my batt% still goes down, never up. is this normal?

                                      1) Virtual proximity sensor issue. Screen never off unless you literally touch the phone to ear or skin.
                                      2) In night time when you are outside and call comes and the phone is in pocket. Then if you want to pick the phone, the screen never allow you it pick the call. It detects as accidental touch.
                                      3) With mobile data phone gets hot during day time.
                                      4) Due to lack of AOD, screen will not lit on notification arrival. This is major drawback of this phone. Even low budget phone of 6k mobile also has this feature. Due to this you have to tap the phone two times and un-lock the phone to see the notification details.
