Currently using a54 and camera is pretty impressive and no lags at all and coming from s10 plus i can say that this is a huge upgrade

[@vlejdoesthis]

hi Denzel. Im about to switch from the s10 to the a54,but im a little bit concerned what if the camera is worse than it is on the s10. What do you think?

[@briellasanluis6863]

I upgraded from a 4 year old A51 to A54 just last week and I've waited for GSM Arenas review of the phone. Its a pretty good upgrade from my previous phone. Gaming on it is smoother despite the exynos chipset even with high graphics. Camera details are also pretty awesome since Iike taking pictures outdoors. Battery life hangs on for a long time even if im on my phone almost for the whole day. Sad about the headphone jack removal since I prefer wired earphones more than the bluetooth ones that I have to remember to charge. I just bought a type c to 3.5mm headphone jack adaptor to solve that small issue for me and music qual is still great. Would definitely recommend it for anyone who wants to upgrade from a 4 year old samsung like me lol loved the review ❤ Edit: if youre getting an a54 5g make sure you have a phone casing ready since samsung doesnt provide one for this in the box. Walking around with a flat slick phone without a casing is like playing with fire lmao

[@rini6847]

Same here i am using a51 planning to switch to a54. Confused between A54 or samsung s21 fe since my priority is camera. A54 images seems more vibrant, detailed and sharp where as S21 is slightly on the soft side. Totally confused!!

[@briellasanluis6863]

@@rini6847 yup some pics of the a54 are crispier than the s21 fe. The thing is about the s21 fe is that i know someone who owns the flagship phone and is already experiencing it slowing down after a year. I was considering getting the s21 fe instead of the a54 but i preferred how the a54 looks more than the s21 (the glass back looks so nice for me). But then again other than the camera, you are getting a flagship if u get the s21 fe. There are tons of comparison videos between the 2 phones that can help you choose which is the best for you!

To be honest Samsung really does a good job with these mid-phones. They always bring premium-like performance, decent resistances and textures and almost all flagship features. But they should release an A54s model with a spandragon chipset and better rsistance and features

[@zenx1999]

Yes but they are doing a mistake not putting snapdragon chipsets as they are better than their exynos chipsets

[@ObieForceGaming]

If you want the snapdragon you pay the extra for a flagship. There's a reason it has less powerful specs so they can offer it at such a cheap price.

I have an A51 phone, and it's unreliable. It freezes constantly and force restarts on its own. :/

[@Joker-yw9hl]

I'd been rocking an S7 Edge (a 2016 flagship) since January of 2018 but recently got the new A54 and I'm honestly blown away. It feels like people online get too numbers-obsessed when it comes to stuff like tech (and cars too, I've noticed, although it's probably just true with everything). In the real world, this phone is incredible. I struggle to comprehend that it's mid-range and not a flagship phone. People complain about the chip but it's literally fine, lol. Like I said, don't get too obsessed over tiny things that literally don't matter in the real world. *Do not* let internet deebs tell you otherwise.. "But muh Snapdragon" I'm glad I waited until now to buy new - I did consider the A53 but stuck with the S7 Edge until the screen broke last month and then recognized that now was the time to move on. If you have a phone like the A52 or an equivalent, then no I likely wouldn't upgrade. Phones these days should be upgraded every 4-5 years in my opinion, not every 1-2. What surprised me was how good the speakers are on this phone - so much better than what I'm used to. Cameras are great. Gotta say this video is a fair and balanced review of the phone

[@Blackfatrat]

I 100% agree with you. I am going from the s9+ to the a54 soon so I've had mine for 5 years. I can barely tell the difference between my s9 and any modern iphone or samsung. It's a phone, I'm not doing some major gaming on it, i'm using google, youtube, snapchat and spotify. I.e things a phone from 2012 can do.... Always went with flagship phones every 2 years before but then it felt like it kinda peaked more or less. or the once the screens got big enough and the edges went away. Never understood why people care so much about the processor etc as long as it can do all you want, who cares?

[@khizqialyasa]

internet dweeb here, numbers only matter if you're playing heavy games, other than that just don't get anything too low

[@jokast8861]

Why not get s23

[@Joker-yw9hl]

@@jokast8861 huge difference in price. The S23 is literally twice as expensive. £449 vs £899

[@pixels_per_inch]

The S7 is old, coupled with the Exynos chipset and OneUI makes it extremely slow. Any budget phone nowadays will outperform it. If you ever held a phone with a 8 Gen 2 or even a 870, you'll feel the difference, and it's big. Samsung could have given it a better chipset, especially a Qualcomm chipset, considering other Chinese manufacturers can do it. It'll not only age much better but will have better compatibility with apps. What's worse is that this is the only phone at this price range that doesn't support stabilization in 4K.

More than a year ago, I was between buying Xiaomi 11 lite 5G NE or the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G. I finally chose the Xiaomi, and indeed it is an amazing phone. But since then, Xiaomi removed micro SD slot from the "lite" series, while in the meanwhile Samsung is constantly improving their mid range phones. If I was buying now, I would choose Samsung Galaxy A54 instead of Xiaomi 13 lite. I believe Xiaomi was for a long time the king 👑 in the mid class price of smartphones, but now Samsung has taken it's throne.

The fact that Samsung want 10-30% more for this than its previous iteration, depending on region, is ludicrous. No doubt it will still fly off the shelves, due to brand recognition and there being so few alternatives offering the same set of features.

It improved it's camera and processor. So they want more for it. Also A series get price cut fast.

[@sbilalx]

What ticks me off that it doesnt not beat the a52s in performance and that is has a noticebaly wider chin and overall bezels. Its just a cash grab device from samsung this time around and tbh one would be better off with one of their other devices if not from its competitors.

[@rieqgreg2138]

​@@sbilalx tbf people buy Samsung because it's 5 years of update with 4 years of android which save a lot of money down the line. You can buy from Samsung's competitors but 4 years of security update and 2 years of android update is not good since after 5-6 years you have to buy new one while you can use Samsung up to 7 years and more without missing much. Their only good rival is Google pixel and they are also not as good other than their cameras.

[@rieqgreg2138]

​@@sbilalx plus Samsung targets for A series is the middle age people who doesn't really care about performance and just want a phone that last long and do well with cheaper price and ok camera. I only wish A70 series wasn't discontinued since that is the phone that people want when it comes to good performance, gaming, camera and etc.

[@fallenclara]

​@@rieqgreg2138the A70-73 lineup were mainly discontinued because it sold poorly in most markets. Plus, no one really wanted to pay £100-150 extra for a phone that was literally very similar with the A50-A53 lineups

Hi, I am considering buying this phone or Sony Xperia 10 V. I saw your videos about both. Thanks for them :) I have some doubts: 1. Are they dual sim? And, if so, can they be active at the same time? (For example, using internet with one sim and receiving sms with the other sim at the same time). 2. I am looking for a phone which takes photos very natural (accurate with what you see in real life in all, specially in the colors). You tested both. Which one do you think is better in this way? Thanks in advance :)

[@heartsbirkshire5131]

I "upgraded" to the A54 5g from an A52 since 4g no longer worked for me in the US with 3 different cell service companies. A52 is much more attractive. Smaller bezels, thinner, sleeker device. Even the less rounded corners of the device are more aesthetically pleasing. Matte plastic backing is better to deal with than A54's fingerprint magnet glass in my opinion. The A52 I have has call recording, which I love and miss!! But apparently that's an international phone feature. The battery life of the A52 was impressive as well. Onto the A54. After using it for a week, I've gotten used to the thick black all around the screen. All my other gripes above still stand. The battery runs down quicker and the back of the phone gets warm after prolonged usage. (Currently 88 degrees Fahrenheit) The only things I've found better with the A54 are the camera and video recorder. They are so much better than the A52's constant focus hunting when recording, grainy pictures in places like my living room, and when using in low light. I hope this helps someone.

I wish the bezels were smaller. They're so horrendous i had to get the white one because of the silver outline that makes it look smaller than the black version; even though i strictly buy black phones.

When people say "less than stellar" it could mean a number of things, but really you *should* mean "barely less than stellar" because otherwise you are not meaning much at all. To mean "average" by saying "less than the extremely bright" is kind of a zoomer (and quite stupid) thing.

Remember everybody You can buy an old flagship for less and get better specs for the price

[@svend.7324]

ok, and how many of those old "flagships" have a memory card slot, 5 years of updates, front & back gorilla glass, Samsung Dex, a licensed screen recorder and come with no bloatware? Correct: none.

[@lordlopes2424]

@@svend.7324 Let get this straight You saying the A54 has all this Lmfaooooooooo

[@lordlopes2424]

@@svend.7324 Ok now let me ask you something How many mid rangers has great cameras(all of then not just the main),can record in 8k and or in 4k 120fps,have better speakers,have better screens,better build quality,better chipsets,exclusive features. Let me remember you that the dex is only for the S line Front and back gorilla glass is normal for flagship but not for mid rangers And bloatware is common to on mid rangers just like A54 in this review

[@darrylwallace5007]

Thank you

[@notkray8468]

In our market this isn't really that popular because here we tend to value hardware over software. I was amazed to know that this his the same support as flagships.

I will buying Galaxy A54 to change my early 2019 Galaxy A50. Can't wait ❤❤❤

[@balongride3169]

It works with wireless charging?

[@alimraw2360]

It was very nice to see it

[@OneDollaBill]

Idk but these a5x phones seem to have gone downhill after a52s. Mediocre exynos chipset, no headphone jack and the charging is still slow compared to other brands. I wish they would just use the Snapdragon or even Dimensity chipsets on these.

[@brainiacbreakdown]

This phone would be my wet dream if it came with Snapdragon 7 Gen 2. 😢

[@Xevos701]

bro the charging is actually faster

[@Xevos701]

A54 charged in 1 hr to charge fully. A52s took 1 hr and 20 minutes.

[@Xevos701]

They certainly improved charging speed

[@CommandoMaster]

Is the A54 good at taking night time photos? It doesn't come out blurred? What about if there's movement while taking a photo, will the image come out clear>?

[@mubashirjavaid1454]

I buy tomorrow good review

How is 4k video not stabilized? Deal breaker for me

[@FredRoxstar]

I really like it, ticks all the boxes for me but my A51 is still running well

[@anzoanz1842]

I have an A51 as well, and it still runs well. A very good phone I must say.

[@xchionali2489]

[@user-iu2em3xo1u]

I got the S21 but just ordered one of these threw Verizon wireless.... hopefully it's nice as I'm expecting if so I'll sell my Galaxy as it's in flawless condition been in a case from day one... or just sell it and get a note 20 in great condition we'll see

[@dotman2481]

Did it come with ESim support?

[@0xfb]

For those who said that A52s is better. A54 have adaptive display refresh rate and 1000nits brightness. A54 have new Exynos 1380 5nm chip (which is new and still not optimized, that is the reason why performance are similar to SD 778G). A54 have UFS 3.1. A54 have new camera sensor which is better. A54 have a glass back instead of 'glasstic'.

[@Peter-nb7tk]

The processor for the price is not value for money, s21fe is better if you use it on 60hz And it has lpddr4x Ram at 40k and thick bezels 1380 should been on the a34

[@0xfb]

Exynos is worst😂, im coming from exynos 1280 and snapdragon 720 is smoother than 1280 lol .

[@frankreynolds9930]

@@Peter-nb7tk Slight better speed for huge battery loss. No thanks.

[@inabyss]

A54 doesn't have UFS 3.1 storage. There are many conflicting reports, but it is UFS 2.2/2.1 as the benchmark shows storage speeds to be very similar to those with UFS 2.1 or 2.2 and nowhere near the speed of UFS 3.1.

[@dynamicvibe4248]

It's better than the Galaxy A53 from last year. The main cam has a new sensor, while the chipset is energy sufficient, performance is just good but not amazing, as expected from Exynos and the design is good (similar to the Galaxy S23). But no charger in the box.

[@frankreynolds9930]

@Jeevanandham K a52s also doesnt have eis at 4k video.

[@benmummery1294]

@Jeevanandham K 4k video looks like shit on every phone anyways.

[@whoatemysandwich9476]

Awesome phone

[@omgmitzidis2]

Nice, I'm buying one

[@nyce860]

A good phone but not for a heavy phone user, some cons : it lags alot, overheats, Also when it's at a certain temperature it won't charge because it thinks there's water in the charger port (even though it's water resistant) also battery drains very fast if you're a heavy phone user, be prepared to constantly charge your phone , get an iPhone or a high end device and save yourself the troubles of this A54

[@fallenclara]

Love the review, just wished it wasn't so expensive here 😭

[@devanshudodiya]

The trick is to wait for the price drop.

[@fallenclara]

@@devanshudodiya doubt it, Samsung phones here mostly never drop in value. Only older models like the S9,10, and 20's get a significant drop here. While the newer models cost as much as a month's rent.

[@fallenclara]

Most people here just end up buying last year's phones like the A13 or just refurbished iphones instead.

whats your region? usually samsung devices depreciate quite fast.

I post comment on your website about A54, side is not plastic but Aluminum, i unintentionally was "test" this when it was fall on side and hit this so called plastic but i have just small dent, plastic will break or chip but this is dent, i checked on Samsung customer support and they confirm that side is Aluminum and both Gorilla Glass 5 front and back.

[@heartsbirkshire5131]

What do the others complain about?

[@DaronsDislikes]

I will not buy Samsung as long as they don't include chargers. I hate that they got rid of IR blasters, headphone jacks, and SD card readers, too. It's all for greed, plus they follow just about whatever their leader, Apple does. The environment shit is an excuse. You could argue that you can get by without headphone jacks, SD card readers, etc. But a charger is absolutely essential! Most do not have a type C, 25 watt charger laying around to fit the cable included in the box. Samsung knows this and makes lots of money, because most Samsung lovers will still buy Samsung devices, no matter how much Samsung screws them over. Just like Apple lovers overpay for iPhones, even if the new model iPhone is the same darn thing with a new name. Like the iPhone 14 is just a rebranded iPhone 13. I will NOT let them screw me over. I demand a charger in the box, and I don't mean a crappy 5 watt one either. If everyone would stop giving in and buying their products like me, they would be forced to include chargers, headphone jacks, and SD card readers, again. Lastly, if they really cared about the environment so much, they would not even include the cable. They include a C to C cable so that you will buy a type C charger. The average consumer will think that you need a type C charger to go with the type C cable included in the box. Smh

[@johndelfierro9930]

You said too much.. you can just say you dont like to buy it. Thats all.

[@pixels_per_inch]

Exactly, sadly most people wouldn't care and buy it anyways

[@GFourGadget]

The chipset is okay, the camera is good, and One UI is great. However 25W is too slow for a 2023 midrange, and the thicker bezels leave a lot to be desired.

[@Drownedinblood]

I have a theory Samsung keeps it that slow cuz of their past of having batteries explode.

[@JebatKD]

I still charging with 18w. Still ok tho.

[@lordlopes2424]

​@@Drownedinblood The past Anything from 2020 and below,maybe recent stuff too idk

[@andrewx8888]

25w is plenty. 100% in under an hour. The bezels I agree aren't great, but it's better than last year.

[@DemoFly]

You're insane if you think 25w isnt fast enough for a mid range phone.
