There's no HDR, 1000nits useless Brightness!
I can't imagane why it's absent in A34 while we can see HDR10+ in A54
So there's another 8-bit Expensibe phone without HDR
I'm going for Xiaomi 13 Lite or Even Pixel 6a

        It's really boring, the only good thing about it is the years of security updates. Otherwise it's around as boring and lifeless as a phone gets.

          John, 11 Apr 2023This is really a great review and I really enjoyed reading ... moreWas thinking the same thing. This was a major reason why I bought this phone.

            Alex 94, 11 Apr 2023Scratches....The material and matte finish that Samsung use since the A52 or so are quite resilient and highly durable. You have to really intentionally scratch the plastic. Meanwhile, glass is glass, and a simple drop can easily crack it. For using a phone caseless I would go plastic anytime.

              you have to suffer, 11 Apr 2023i really hope samsung would give a free charging brick afte... moreThey do in some markets. Where I live all of Samsung's phones come with at least a basic 15W charger. The S series come with a 25W charger.

                Anonymous, 11 Apr 2023U-notch is bullshit in 2023 in this price tag... i hate thi... moreAll notch are bad. Only good implementation for front cam are the Sony Xperias with no notch.

                  Seems quite nice, and with some improvements, e.g. IP67, over the previous model(s), and so it should be. However, it would have been nice to see a dedicated sd-card slot, some faster charging - including charger - and a 3.5 jack for that price. Yes, I know there are adapters, and that I'm a bit conservative, but still... 😉

                      A34 is much better than A54

                            Smellmet, 11 Apr 2023They're both the same aren't they?Read the review, it takes the A34 more than half an hour longer to a full charge. Also compared to A33 with same battery and charging rate.

                                Shiny Dave, 11 Apr 2023Welcome back to midrange competitiveness, Samsung. All it t... morethey did it for a long time. even when they started making smartphones.

                                  i really hope samsung would give a free charging brick after buying the a34 or a54. would be fair enough, so they dont have to charge more.

                                    potato4k, 11 Apr 2023Plastic back is even better if you want to go case less bec... moreits better to have scratches than cracks. thats when plastic back exists.

                                      It's a good phone, the €400 price was a bit steep but it can be found closer to €300 now which is a fair price for what it offers. If in 6 months the price comes to 250-260 then it'd be the best deal around.

                                        Alex 94, 11 Apr 2023As i thought, smartphone is great. With 4 years of android ... morePlastic back is even better if you want to go case less because it's more durable and won't shatter when you drop the phone.
