I also game for like 2 hrs (e.g. asphalt 9 60fps). I use all types of apps regularly. I have adaptive refresh rate and adaptive brightness enabled .Your phone might be faulty,i guess. I have been using for more than a month now.

The A54 is OK regarding performance. Battery is the worst of all my recent phones. It lasts one day with very light usage. Even without a single call or app opened the battery does'nt stand for more than one day. The Samsung service did'nt find anything faulty with the phone or the battery. I can't return it, since i've bought it 4 months ago. Any idea to improve battery life?

After 3 weeks and 4 days of use, I accidentally dropped my phone in traffic while getting out of a taxi and the only thing that broke was the right and left sides because IT WAS PLASTIC. I'm at a loss as to why not just layer the whole thing with the same Gorilla Glass 5 as on the screen and back of this phone! Now I can't enjoy the smooth side of the phone anymore and this is the reason why I didn't buy the case together.

Okay, here's a proper camera review for this phone, as I've been using it for a while now (I'll be honest).
The camera is great when there's plenty of light, as every camera would prefer more light to perform (duh). HDR is nice, but it struggles on the selfie camera and sometimes fails to capture a bit of the sky. Contrast is a bit lacking at times in the camera, which is why sometimes you have to use the remaster feature in the gallery to make the picture look better and give it a bit more contrast by manually editing it yourself. As for social media quality, I didn't bother, to be honest. I don't post pictures taken with my phone on social media; I'm more of a lurker on most social media platforms. Many of my pictures get sent to my friends, and I don't post them on my page anyway.
The selfie camera is decent for skin tones, but I miss having autofocus on it so badly, especially coming from an S9+. But you have to live with what you've got. The selfie camera can give a bit of a bokeh effect without using portrait mode if you know the maximum depth of field (DOF) range before DOF blurs the background.
The primary camera is amazing, but I don't use the 50MP picture mode as I haven't found a good use for it, to be honest. The zoom is far superior, especially considering that super-high-resolution pictures will get compressed to 2MP on social media to save space. It also has the same issue of lacking a bit of contrast. Skin tones on it are really good, especially outdoors, but indoors will be a different story depending on the lighting. In a mixed lighting situation, such as LED bulbs with a mix of sunlight from windows, the camera will struggle to find the proper white balance, especially when the light is mixing. It will sacrifice contrast to get accurate skin tones, which is why the remaster feature/editing is there to save the picture.
As for Night Mode, I can't say much, as I don't take night shots, mainly sticking to day shots.
The Ultra Wide performance is great when provided with plenty of light to work with and has a decent DOF range for an f2.2. It might have some sharpening; who knows about the DOF range with it, as it's hard to find out the DOF range of an ultra-wide camera. Distortion is present when taking pictures with straight objects like long light bulbs. The distortion makes them curve a bit, but it's not the worst where it curves really hard.
So, for now, this is my review after 2 months of using the camera.

Upgraded from A50. I'm speaking from the pov of a50 to a54. The difference is hugeeee as there is 4 years gap. I'm loving this phone!! Battery is great even though I'm a heavy user. The 25w "super" fast charging is very nice and really fast compared to 15w. It takes just the right amount of time to charge. Not too slow and not too fast that you'll get worried about the battery and the temperature.. Games run smoothly too.. I'm really happy with this phone lol..

Ultima9 , 02 Sep 2023The back glass is gorilla glass 5. Not that fragileGlass is just a billion times more shattery than plastic. Was is it even victus 2. Also Heavey. And not environnement friendly at all.
Plastic takes marks but last longer.
I know, most of us think it's premium, smart as it came from iPhone, and bright and sturdy. Apple marketing is so strong they can make us believe any non sense and push it as a trend for other makers.
It's like that.

I wouldn't have paid 450 euros except I like in every little aspect. Around 350 is the price I found in some European countries, on Amazon. 325 is the lowest price new today in France, black. I saw 80 euros more for the green one, it is a steal, but it's less fingerprint probably.
