you should put at least one link to those post

just because curious, i checked out google, first page got nothing hit with "samsung A54 freezing issue" , result only showing how-to-fix when you got the problem

then look up to subreddit samsung, also only few people posting issue, which seems pretty much normal things

              I am not sure why people are comparing this phone with OnePlus 11 and Galaxy s23 price wise. Not sure about other markets but here in India there is a substantial price difference between this and OP 11. Moreover, S23 is almost double the price and hence this phone looks value for money. Considering that it's newly launched, price will go down further.

                Finally some nice close-ups.

                  I can't stand the unwarranted hype and attention for what is a pretty average phone with some gimmicky disco lights. Just goes to show, it's not what you know but who you know...

                    For flagship killing it needs either much lower price(around 499 euros) or newest gen soc.

                      It seems at least £50/€50 overpriced particularly with no p/ex or 0% finance offers nor any decent free gifts.

                          Whilst the nothing 2 uses last year's SoC it's selling at this year's price, Carl always was good at overselling his forms devices whe he was at OP.

                            For the US market, this is a amazing phone, (come to America Xiaomi!)

                              [deleted post]First of all, nothing is based in London and is an independent company instead of being BBK's subsidiary (OnePlus, on the other hand, is BBK's subsidiary).

                              Secondly, "have you seen what he looks like" wtf, are you actually being racist??

                                Phone give premium look but not much different from nothing phone 1 design. Review said sound quality is not good and there is some bugs with lighting. But this price range will get phone with better camera. So only for new processor and additional lightning and little bit big screen why to pay so much.

                                  You shouldn't. Marketing is cancer and they offer no value, only manipulation, as you're seeing here.

                                    For the same money a oneplus 11 looks better. Samsung s23 ultra can also be had for 900 euro or so. Easy choice...

                                        [deleted post]lol. Some people have dignity and can appreciate unique design and bloatware free OS others are fueled by hate and negativity.
                                        Never have I held a Nothing product in my hand but am intrigued by this device. Will wait for a proper review though as evidenty you cannot judge a phone by stats only.
