    Galaxy A54 = 119h in battery test. Only 119h ???

    The inefficiency of the Exynos 1380 is really brought into the spotlight here.

    For comparison, A52s = 113h, so A54 is only 6 hours better when-

    1) A54 has 500 mAh bigger battery than A52s

    2) A54 has more efficient screen (M10 emitter)

    3) A54 has Adaptive Refresh Rate (60-120 Hz)

    4) A54 has slightly smaller 6.4" screen.

    All these upgrades should help the A54 have much better battery life, maybe

        From article "The A54 puts the series back on the right track, we reckon. We're getting a more powerful chipset than last year (though, admittedly, it's roughly on par with the two-year-old A52s),"

        Right so 2 years later and still no upgrade on the A52s. Even downgrades in several areas, no headphone jack, no charger in box, worse video stabilization, heavier, much bigger bezels.

        But it gets the standard positive review from GSMarena, almost everything gets at least a 4 despite the last 18 months seeing a big fall in the quality and value of smartphones

          Strange offering. Huge bezels for a 2023 oled phone, also extremely wide. 76mm?! I have less on a phone with 6.67" diagonal.

            omg what is going on with samsung?! even by this such a low cpu performance...... only 54% rest cpu power su tue throttling. the korean semiconductors did completely lost the war against taiwan!

                  Poco X5 Pro $300 is much better than this, Almost the same specs/performance but much cheaper. If you get an early bird you can get it for $250 which is half the price of this phone...

                    Firewarrior96, 30 Mar 2023They were saying this crappy exynos will dethrone SD7 gen1 ... moreWhat I learnt here. Snapdragon 7 gen 1 is crapp. Worst than this Exynos 1380 in all aspects.

                              Please confirm whether UFS 2.2 or UFS 3.1

                                How would you expect this to fare in gaming? The stress results for the GPU are perfect. The CPU is the one that suffers. But for games you mainly rely on the GPU. So you can expect nice stability overall in games. Right?

                                    I think A34 will beat A54 in battery test.
