For my case, the Pixel 7a is cheaper than the A54 5G. And since I'm obsessed by the software experience of Pixel phones, the choice is pretty obvious.

[@NizarNoor]

[@wefrazzini]

Love pixel experience. Traded into s21 from 4a and have been looking to go back to google. Unfortunately, they dont ship to thailand and VAT, shipping, import fees seem like a waste. A54 or 7a I would go google if i could. Nice seeing this comparison. 🙏

[@raymondabella4684]

Just got done transfering over from a S10e to an A54. I picked over the Pixel 7a because of the convenience of transferring from one Samsung to another and because I like that it still had the ability to have an SD card. It may not have the chip power of the 7a but it was a step up from my S10e so I won't know what I'm missing anyways. So far I'm happy with my A54 and love the familiarity to my old phone. I definitely feel that it was worth every penny and don't feel like I stepped down from a flagship to a mid level phone. I figure to use it for a couple of years and keep it as a back up when I move on to the next if its still alive. 👍

[@alanalain4884]

Hi, thank you for the video. Would you know the Gorilla Dlass rating for each of these devices or if one has a stronger glass than the other? Thank you for any insight...

[@paulantony4598]

The virtual proximity sensor on the A54 is a deal breaker. No excuse for that on an upper mid range phone.

[@archie7288]

Don't forget very slow Ufs 2.1 and slow exynos

[@jamesaaronmanarang]

A34 is cheaper for a small difference. Because, overall, if you are going to buy a midrange phone, you should select the cheapest with almost the same quality.

[@Bmhtsos18]

I was between these two phones but I eventually chose the A54 due to the Pixel devices are officially unavailable in my country, Greece, and there's no Google customer support here either. The Pixel devices are also not supported by Greek phone providers and as such they have no 5G coverage or even proper phone signal here in Greece. So, even though the Pixel is objectively the better device it's of no use to me if it can't do its main function.

[@yourmajesty7604]

Exact same situation and thoughts, cutie. 💯

[@kindzadza134]

Same here in your northern Slav neighbours

[@LevenZ69]

Ill chose the 7A anyday between the two, and the phone(2) if it wasn't between these two

[@avcomth]

Even if the Pixel were to be available in Greece, you should still choose Samsung A54--its doesnt excel to the extreme but in only specific aspects like the Pixel, but it maintains above average performances in all aspects and thats what makes Samsung successful, they make good all rounder devices that translate to satisfying daily use by consumers.

[@LevenZ69]

@@avcomth no. A54 is purely dogshit. it lacks in performance, struggles in general stuff, has overly saturated cameras etc and overall bad and shitty software and animations. I owned it for a while. It doesn't maintain above average at all, pixel on the other hand, especially the 7a which is cheaper in my country than the a54 excels in everything, be it cameras, software, overall software responsiveness, speed, display, cameras, and haptics. A54 is dogshit. If you've used anything of the same segment, you would know it. If you havent used anything in the same segment you would still find the a54 average for the price you pay for it

[@NotGabe001]

I think I'd go with the Galaxy. I thought about getting a Pixel 6a. My problem going from my Galaxy A51 to a Pixel is that none of my RCS messages from Samsung's Messages app will transfer to Google's Messages app. If it weren't for that, I'd probably get the 6a, or maybe the 7a when the 8a is released. I'd really like to have those Pixel cameras and flagship chipset, but the messages thing will really bother me. Plus, the Galaxy has a 120 Hz display. Good video though. Edit: Although, at the end of the day it might not even matter that much. How often do I go through old messages anyway? If I really want to keep them I could just screenshot them all and save the attatchments. That might be what I'll do. But that smooth Galaxy screen! It's a tough decision, for sure. I might get the A53 just for the screen, or the Pixel 6a or 7a for the cameras and a different software experience, since I've been a Galaxy user my whole life.

[@SoundblasterYT]

[@TechDaily]

Yeah, actually listening back at the audio sample, the Pixel is quite a bit better. Samsung just hasn't really changed their speaker setup on...any (?) phones the last few years, and I think that's starting to show. It's like they keep re-using internal speakers from like 5-6 years ago.

[@jordancooper0944]

The A54 and S23 Plus have a few things in common: Great battery life, size, display, look, and similar camera's - S23 Plus is going to be better in all these areas though as it's a flagship.

[@robertvogt1527]

The cameras on the s23 are far superior than those on the a54. That's not to say that the a54's cameras are bad or anything, it's just that they are not as good. There is also the photo processing software of the s23 that puts it ahead.

[@Moyaiville_Productions]

The S series have always been equipped with Dual Pixel PDAF sensors while the A-series have never been. Try driving your car at night and taking photos with both phones, no A series phone can focus and give you a bright and clear image---all the S series phone can snap the photos instantly with no shutter lag and no need to activate night mode, images are alway sharp and focused.

[@TechDaily]

Yeah, not really sure what the deciding factor is there - and I can't even imagine there's a cost justification for *offering* a 6GB RAM model. Having 1 model, 8GB/128GB would be fine for the whole world.

On topic. I think the A54 crushes the Pixel 7a. Why? Bigger screen, better quality screen, 120 hertz over Pixels' 90 hertz, it has an SD card reader, bigger battery, faster charging, lower price, and better software support. I would be willing to compromise with a slightly slower processor and with moderately inferior cameras. The Pixel is way behind other modern flagship processors in speed and, afterall, I want a screen big enough to see those nice pictures. Pixel 7a 👎

[@discosweet9665]

I agree that the pixel takes great photos, but A54 with Sony imx 766 is doing wonders if you know how to handle the camera. The polished saturated look is my cup of tea, and the majority of people like the instagram ready pictures. And remaster option in A54 doing miracles. Pixel pictures have a darker tone and so natural, which i dont prefer. So it is subjective. A54 takes excellent low light photos as well. The Sony sensor always has that standard and reputation over any camera sensors. Ex Imx 582, 586, 766, 800 are the best for mid range smartphones. The only thing is the processing power of pixel

Lol no the only thing the a54 has is a faster refresh rate and faster charging, the 7a has a better processor, wireless charging, better cameras, and gets android updates first before any other android manufacturers

[@marksouthwell4490]

​@@JayFrankTMthe only thing that would tempt me to buy the A54 is it's lovely display, the rest of the device is sub par . Pixels are actually at another level compared to the A54. The 7a has a great display, one could say excellent quality, only downside is it's a bit dim . Auto peak brightness is roughly equal on both these devices ( 1000 nits range )

[@javidhassen6533]

I chose Galaxy A54 5G(white color)

[@average_sam_101]

What made you choose that? I still can't decide and the holiday sales will start soon.

[@fayazahamed1390]

A big no for a garbage charging speed in pixel 7a

[@user-cx6dg5tt4h]

Is the pixel 7a visible outdoors?

[@alexandermusano2936]

i have one. The screen is not bright outside unless on max brightness

[@TechDaily]

I mean, is it visible? Sure, for the most part. But it's definitely a dim phone. I wish the screen were brighter for sure

[@James-xy6ue]

I have one for me it's fine in direct sunlight u can see everything u can text view Ur screen well imo people chat alot of rubbish about the pixel 7a what I would say is treat it on Ur own merits ignore what others write try it ,, and with Amazon u can get a refund or exchange no hassles so as long as u take care of it technically u can try it for a month with no worries

Quantum supremacy. I'll take the pixel please.

[@OddOneOut665]

If the A54 wanted to gain the upper hand over the 7A, they’d drop the price down to $399 over the Summer. Though, as a Pixel fan, I’d still buy the latter for its current price of $499.

[@JavierGomez-jj4pf]

En mi país esta a 318 dolares a ese precio no hay rival para el a54 no existe😅

Basically the same Geekbench scores for processor speeds.

[@JeffWaynee]

For me it's simple. Samsung wins for looks and the Pixels wins for everything else. Especially software. If Samsung used a more stock Android I would buy their phones till I die.

[@TechDaily]

I give Samsung credit - their software experience & update timelines did improve. But there certainly hasn’t been much to get excited about in the last couple of years with OneUI feature-wise🤷‍♂️

[@JeffWaynee]

@@TechDaily I'm not saying it's unusable, but I'm also not going to pay to use it.

I have an Android phone with stock android. I also have a Samsung phone with One UI 5.1. I have to say that the stock android is boring, and I don't like it. Why do the toggles in the notification shade and the notifications have big, fat, rounded corner boxes?! They look ugly and waste space. The toggles in the Samsung notification shade are nice small circles and the notification boxes are nice small rectangles. Plus One UI adds more features that stock android doesn't have. The only thing I don't like in One UI is the battery screen that shows how long the screen on time has been since the last full charge. It doesn't update as often as stock android, but otherwise, I think One UI is the better system.

[@life-pm5xl]

The bezels are really chunky in the 7a

[@TechDaily]

Yeah, they sort of become more apparent the longer you stare at it 😅 And I was actually surprised to see how close these 2 phones are with their overall size when the screens are supposed to be quite different. They're basically the same overall size.

[@Uxz-iu8re]

Samsung looks like a deal right now !!!!

[@FlintG]

Yup I think the A54 phone will be a win for me for my phone to get from switching from iPhone 12.

I'll go for the 7A between these two, A54 is pure shit, I've used that thing for a week, and hated it, sold it at a loss of $100, unusable device, but I'll go with the phone(2) if it wasn't between these two, I don't use flagships because I change phones too frequently, I did go for the phone(2) and this is the phone for me, I ain't changing this atleast for 2 more years even though I typically change phones ever year or even 8-10 months. The performance is also shit with the a54 and one of the worst OS to ever exist (I had the s21plus and note20ultra previously), now rocking the OP6 as my secondary

Galaxy all day. I had a pixel 7 not 7a and it was the worst phone and worse battery life phone I’ve ever owned

[@average_sam_101]

Question about the 7a you had. What made it so bad besides battery? Did it start breaking down software wise over the months?

[@thomasK411]

@samiranamkath9654 I didn't have a 7a, I had a 7. I returned it after 3 months, kept glitching, closing out of things, bad service compared to the iPhone I had. Would get very hot, and lots of strange things that didn't make sense. Never had a phone that issues like that. Ironically I got one for my woman and she didn't have as many problems but close to my problems. We returned them both the same day. My galaxy a54 I'm using right now has been great. Not as good as my iphone 12 pro max but I enjoy it. She doesn't like the galaxy as much as me though.

[@average_sam_101]

@@thomasK411 can I also ask, how's the camera and speaker quality on the a54? I'm leaning more towards that vs the 7a.

[@thomasK411]

@samiranamkath9654 funny enough every review days the pixel 7 camera is amazing. Me and my woman both disagreed and feel like the pixel camera Is over hyped. I believe there's more sneaky paid reviews. Speakers on the galaxy is very close to the iPhone 12 pro max. The speakers on the pixel were somewhat close. Camera on the galaxy a54 is great.......if they're standing still. Shutter speed is slow and the camera and colors on the galaxy are amazing. But if they're moving the galaxy camera is very disappointing. The pixel struggled with moving people but not as much as the galaxy suffers. But still shots of outdoors, cars and portrait face pictures, video galaxy wins. I play cod mobile on the galaxy. I couldn't Doordash with the pixel lmao. I got the galaxy for 100 bucks on cricket. We had the iphones on Verizon. I'm quite detailed but just my opinion.

@@thomasK411 I appreciate all the feedback. It's the holidays so the phones should be on sale so trying to decide which one to get.
