Marcos Goncalves, 27 Jan 2024I considered send to waranty and ask for another one. Mine ... moreWell , i use it for daily tasks only. I don't play games. I compared to a34 to A54. A34 doesn't have these issues at all. A54 lags when you initiate an app or a gesture for the first time after that it's good but i can clearly feel the lag at first.

Again, isn't the perfect phone, but I don't know how you guys use the smarthphone to be so laggy, cuz once again, mine runs without issues.

I'm using the A54 for six months and unfortunately i agree with Gsmarena's review. Geekbench or Antutu scores don't show user experiences. The phone stutters randomly. Esecially when you switch between apps, unlock your phone or pull down the notification menu.

I come from owning an S22 and an S10+ before that. Apart from those being very different devices between them (mainly because of the display), do you know what I miss the most from having an S-series?
Yeah, me neither.

I thought anyone else might've had the same problem with the fingerprint sensor but maybe it's just me. My phone will not stop relentlessly trying to unlock itself in my pocket, so I take it out to open it and I'm greeted with "Try again in 4 hours" like.. OKAY! Thanks! So I just am not able to enjoy the fingerprint feature at all because of this. Maybe I need a screen protector? A layer so the sensor isn't so.. sensitive. I love it :|

I've had an A54 for about 6 months It has been excellent. No lagginess whatsoever. My only problem with it is that I didn't purchase it sooner

I purchased an A54 1 month ago and have been frustrated with its operation but the main beef is in regard to the battery. Mine is overheating to the point where it is too hot to hold. I took it back to Optus where I purchased it and was informed that it would have to be sent off for 2 weeks under warranty. No phone for 2 weeks and was informed by Optus to buy a cheap phone to get over this period. Unbelievable.

What are you talking about¿ I have the A54 for almost a year now. And while the first few weeks there definitely were lags or almost freezes, it completely went away after 1 or 2 software updates. It's now buttery smooth. I see no difference in performance/smoothness between the A54 and the A34 (that I also have) or the A52 or the A72 (that I had before them).

I have been using this phone from past 8 months, that definitely count as long term and I don't agree with the GSM arena's review here, because in day to day life I see zero lag or choppiness, that too I have battery saver 95% of the time. If I turn off battery saver then usinf 120 Hz display, there is no lag or whatever. Any phone lesser than 30K price in today's market will see that lagginess and choppiness, but not this one.

Also too attribute the ... morei don't see any lag in regular use at all. the only lag is going to google news feed from the home screen when the news feed is not preloaded. when it's preloaded there is no lag. the phone takes a bit more of time after booting to gain normal and smooth speed. other than that for daily usage i don't see any lag at all.

How does it perform with OneUi 6.0? Also too attribute the choppiness to the SoC is plain wrong. Any SoC from the past years is powerful enough to perform Ui animations, it's just OneUi on mid range and lower end just sucks and lacks optimisation, care :/

KondriX, 05 Dec 20236-9 months is now considered long-term? Really? The GSMA team should take a tour in the third world countries and take a look at how most people in those countries are using ancient low ends, and not replacing them "until they break" lol

I have the a54e/ds variant (8/256). i play codm in medium graphics at 60 fps and have not noticed any lag. the battery drain is about 1% every 4 mins. I know that pubgm doesn't support 60 fps in a54. but if u use gfxtool you can play at hdr 60 fps. the temp then rises to 39-40 degree Celsius which is not that bad and if u play smooth 60 fps then temp stays at 35 degree celsius. in codm the temp is about 35 degrees (highest 36 degrees). pubgm developers should have optimized this chipset. i agree that exynos 1380 is not best for gaming in this budget. But from my experience i can say its pretty good
