what a shame. I'm very happy with my A71 and I was hoping to upgrade to an A74 or 75 eventually. Oh well.

    Also, even though I'm using an A52s, I have started to use TWS (Nuarl N6 Pro2) for music, and found that the sound quality is generally better than my old pair of 3.5mm JVC wired earphones.

      I should grab S21FE while it's available. I can't see myself buying S23 for 1200€ or cheap dog next year.

        ODSTxGundam, 23 Dec 2022The A7x series had so much potential. I had the A70 and lov... moreI have the A70, love it still, but need to upgrade soon.

        I dont want the A53, and A73 and A72 not available in the UK (and crazy expensive to buy internationally).

        The A52s is looking like my best option but is it still worth it now, in terms of future software support, or do you think the A54 will essentially replace the A7x series in specs?

        I may try a Pixel 6, or wait for a 7a?

          Since the A73 dropped the 3x optical zoom of the A72, and the useful MicroSD and headphone ports, I never upgraded.

            Alishah, 22 Dec 2022Imho, this is a step in the right direction. The S-series F... moreThe lower end As are not great. If they had to ditch something, keep the M series and ditch the A series lower models.

                  I don't really care how they call the top mid-tier phone, but I would like some new ones using Qualcomm chips. And please at least keep the SD card slot if not the 3.5mm.

                      Anonymous, 23 Dec 20222022 doesnt mean we must follow company price and say 700$ ... moreWell yea, but with mid-range specs, it's indeed a mid-ranger, just ridiculously overpriced.

                        Anonymous, 22 Dec 2022Even 700$ can be a midranger. We live in 2022.2022 doesnt mean we must follow company price and say 700$ is a midranger..

                          magnaroader, 22 Dec 2022You are perhaps forgetting the A0 series, the A2x and the A... moreI didn't forget. Those series aren't mainstream.

                            So that means they will be selling the A54 with the price tag of what would be the A74, got it.

                              The A7x series had so much potential. I had the A70 and loved it. Under the hood it had exactly what I needed plus a larger screen. The Ax3 was a downgrade and the A73 didn't even launch in a lot of countries. I had to upgrade to the A52s after waiting so long for the Ax3 series lackluster release. It truly is a shame.

                                      YUKI93, 22 Dec 2022We haven't seen any new A4x model since the 2020 A42 5... moreI think the Foxconn-made A series is extremely underrated. Especially the Galaxy A8 from 2015 that is extremely light for its size.
                                      And the Galaxy A3 2017, which is not only tiny but also water-resistant too.
                                      And people never mentioned how the Galaxy A series (before Huaqin) had a unique ringtone set similar to Nokia E series phones. Even the S series didn't have those ringtones.
