Battery stinks, wifi doesnt send texts when connected. Contacted samsung and they wouldnt let me return. Wish i could go back to my S21. Unplugged phone at 100% went back to sleep for an hour and a half (obviously not being used during thag time) on battery save mode and was down to 71%.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your S23 FE, Kristy. We aim to provide the best service and devices. Let's work together to troubleshoot what you are experiencing. Regarding you trying to send text messages over Wi-Fi, you may not have Wi-Fi Calling enabled on your device.

Love the phone. Just should have researched a little more. This phone does not take a SD micro card for more storage. Other than that it's a good phone.
