Everything else is okay. Display is superb.

Got the September update for my A54. No noticeable difference in the already impressive performance. DEX found in flagship is the only thing missing here. The base S23 is almost at par with this phone. Only 4k@60fps video recording is missing . 1080p@30/60fps is more than okay. Picture quality not at par with flagship but shots are very sharp and usable. 5000mah,OIS,Amoled,1p67,Stereo speakers are avilable

A54 is my first Samsung after a while. The last phone I had was Poco X3. A54 is marginally better, all functions are similar, and excels with better camera and more fluid UI.
My dissatisfaction goes to battery. It's draining it excessively. Even old x3 holds better after almost three years of use.
I've tried disabling adaptive display optimization, location and several other options but it goes down very quickly. 5G network is not available here yet, so it shouldn't be a network issue. Deep sleep standby can hold it for almost a week without use, but watching videos or browsing social apps will eat battery in a matter of hours.
I've seen some videos with battery tests, and in that videos A54 battery can hold for over 11 hours of excessive use. I don't think that is possible with one I have, so I can imagine it's problem with android and optimization. Hopefully, new android will solve this issue or some updates. As for now, with moderate use I can have only day and a with this battery.

Ark, 30 Sep 2023In 2010's... Sorry, I couldn't resist ;)Actually - 2020, and that model is the Note10Lite - which still offers both features of FM Radio and 3.5mm jack. Just an FYI.

It's pretty fast, buttery smooth and I agree it's 5000mah fizzles away fast & to me its a bit disappointing probably bcos of the 120hz motion smoothness power consumption. But the phone audio is fantastic , stereo loud and clear. Got a USB C adaptive earphones and it works for me. I recommend it bcos of the premium features one OIS,Stereo,120hz OLed screen,lp67 water resistance.

On a separate note, beta has very much improved the battery. Before I used to get 2-3 percent on light browsing for 15-20 minutes. Now I've been on for longer but lost only 2 percent. Weird what could've brought this chnagw

Anonymous, 28 Sep 202310-15 hours screen on time? Yes. I know it's hard to believe. Today I was mostly reading on my A54 and it was projecting over 20 hours of screen-on-time! Here is a pic: https://imgur.com/a/Z8dv9A8
When this phone isn't doing much, the chipset and standby are extremely efficient. But when my usage is mixed (some reading, YouTube, Twitter, texting, viewing pics/memes, and a little shopping), I usually get 10 to 15 hours of screen-on-time.
This is how I achieve those numbers:
1. When indoors, I keep brightness at 25% to 33%
2. Keep Bluetooth off
3. Keep Nearby Share off
4. Keep location off
5. Keep NFC off
6. Use Adblock Plus for Samsung Internet
7. Sleep the apps I don't use much
8. Use dark mode in everything
When I need a feature, I turn it on. Otherwise, I keep them off. This method isn't for everyone, but it can be done!

Marcos Goncalves, 19 Sep 2023I miss aluminum sides too. They didn't go away, they're just on the expensive phones lol. The A50 series never even had an aluminium chassis for you to be complaining about.

Hello . The screen of this phone turns yellow, it's very tempting, everything is denied on Instagram, very bad, very bad, the battery of this phone is normal, then the weight is very heavy, it reminds you of early Xiaomi phones, the way your hand hurts, it's like a brick of the phone camera. There are no positive points except for the user interface. If you think of a solution for the yellow screen, say it except for screen mode. The fingerprint sensor is very slow. While using Telegram, I felt the slowness when opening the gallery in the Telegram app
