    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... 😉

                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.

                              Goan, 11 Apr 2023With offers and discounts, I bought the Samsung S21FE at ab... moreThat's with "offers and discounts," which can be different even for different stores. So you cannot use your specific discounted prices as a comparison. We have to use MSRP if we want to do comparison.

                              I mean I can say an iphone is the better choice because I got it for free as a present. But it's an invalid comparison.

                                Nikojas, 11 Apr 2023I also wonder if they deliberately slowed down the charging... moreThey're both the same aren't they?

                                      I think it was a hardware decision once Sammy realised the efficiency discrepancy between the two chips. They won't admit it but they also made the A34's panel bigger than its predecessor.. and the A54's panel smaller than its predecessor as an extra, last gasp, effort to (fruitlessly) bring the battery life of both in line with each other.
