The Galaxy A52s is still getting praise, even after the A53 has been around for a while. Can the A54 get the same love from fans?

    even if this chip , apparently not convincing , as well as the lack of the jack , I think the wisest thing , before making a judgment , is to wait and read the gsmarena review

      A54 has one main problem and one minor problem.
      The main problem - the processor is very, very poorly chosen.
      If a better processor like MediaTek or Snapdragon was expected to be used.
      I hope Galaxy A74 5G or Galaxy A54s will be introduced with SD7+ Gen 2 processor.
      Maybe the A81 5G will be revived.
      Minor problem - that the display margin is too much for a 2022 mobile, even more than the previous generation.
      ..............
      This year, Galaxy A34 will be more popular.

        Anonymous, 19 Mar 2023Samsung don't mention Galaxy A on their press release ... moreBeside other sources confirm 4years, they don't mention any A series device there while at least A53 is both 4OS eligible & available in US. Just Inaccurate, for some reason.

          Honestly would more or less have a hard time to pick notch or Exynos for me. Looking a phone for someone else tho, and A34 looks viable. Notch wouldn't mind then. A decent midrange with full Samsung long term support, decent D1080 (no Exynos to potentially mess all up), better value than A54. Price is shaping to be not much higher than A33 where I live (as someone else mentioned, too) so it won'tbe that bad all. More than one phone yet in my sight. I picked A34 see after review etc. option.

            S20 fe 5g was the best phone samsung ever produced based on value for money

              blue, 19 Mar 2023A new S23 won't cost €500 in a year...That's the level of price drop I've seen every year for every Samsung flagship, bought new, under warranty and paid for in four instalments in a major retailer (not on the internet). Maybe with inflation it will be 50 euros more, and it will still be worth it.

                      Overpriced imo. In the US you can get the Moto G Stylus 5G or even the Edge or the Pixel 6a or even the Xperia 10 IV for considerably cheaper. You could also go with an S20/S21 for around the same price.

                      Wait for prices to fall, or only get these if you need IP67 rating on a budget.
                      A34 is worth $300 imo
                      A54 is worth $325 imo

                        A54 has thicker bezels than my Redmi 9T = LOL!
                        It's too big and heavy for quite good size 6.4 inch. Unfortunately because of that I will not buy it.

                                There are 2 types of USB PD, there is regular USB PD those won't work with 25W on Samsung phones and there's USB PD PPS, those will work with 25W, there's no such thing as mandatory to use Samsung own adapter, it's not a proprietary protocol.

                                        One does not to be genius to see that older samsungs were better or lot better than never ones.
                                        A52 or even A51 were better than A53 or A54.
                                        Just like S10 or S20 line were better than S21, S22 and S23 models.
