Like others reported here, I observe the same problem (slowness) with my Samsung Galaxy A5 and ubuntu-18.04.

I tried Android File Transfer as suggested in comment #10, and it's indeed way faster. That being said, I had to switch my phone to using the "Image transfer protocol" (MTP (or PTP?), not sure what's the actual name in english), and it seems this also sped up access via Thunar.
Switching back to "File transfer protocol", the access is again very slow under Thunar.

As other complained, this was reported 1 year ago, and apparently no progress? (No even a "OK I could reproduce the problem...)
