    Those people that saying Samsung A54 sucks doesn't even use the phone. I bought this as a backup phone yet I'm using it more than my main now which is an iPhone. This phone is perfect for me, does everything that I needed for a phone!

    For the microSD, its not about being tech savvy, its about storing a bunch of stuff and not worrying about eating up your phones internal memory. As well, want to put your phone back to factory, you just remove your card and all your data is safe. As well, can load a ton of movie or TV shows on your SD card and have a ton to watch when you don't have access to data, I'm tech savvy, and I will always want an internal storage card

    To me cons #1, 2 and 3 are not cons. Let me explain. #1 - I ordered S23 Ultra and A54 at the same time. And man, how S23U disapointed me, when it comes to pictures in bad light conditions. And I had high expectations. With A54 my expectations are exactly where they should be when it comes to a phone a paid £300 for (8/256GB). I have confirmed again, that if I want proper pictures, I need to carry my dslr with me, and no flagship will come even close to it. #2 - I have had this phone for 2 weeks now, and not a single stutter in normal use, #3 S23U came with exactly same amount of accessories :). I have been steering clear form flagships, because they take "good" pictures, but nor good enough for me; same with their performance - if I want to play, I use my gaming rig. All I want from the phone is good quality screen, good battery life, good speakers (especially for phone speaker) - this phone meets my expectations and most likely will stay with me until it runs out of security updates (5 years).

    I went from a Redmi Note 7 to the A54 and I don't notice any stutter and the camera is a big improvement compared to the xiaomi. I heard a lot of complaints about the processor being an Exynos, to be honest I don't have any complaint so far.
    The only thing is that I was used to MUI interface and I need to adapt to the samsung one. Also, about the screen, I don't see any improvement from the Redmi Note 7, I don't really understand why reviewers are so pleased with it.
    If you want a good mid rande phone with expandable storage, good quality photos, good battery life, decent performances and 5 years updates, look no further :)

    I like your honest review.
    Most people will want or need a case for protection. An inexpensive silicone case would be a great addition to include in the box. Samsung should consider adding one in the box in near future as the value it adds far outweighs the cost.

    • @afropick69
      @afropick69 Год назад +9

      No need to add a cheap silicone case when people will not use it and buy a case closer to their personal preference. Samsung should have at lease included the charger.

    • @MrMark-ed6hw
      @MrMark-ed6hw Год назад +1

      @@afropick69 There's no need until it's dropped beforehand. Actually, silicone cases are very popular and sell in many different shapes, designs, colors and materials for different levels of protection. It also offers great protection until one buys something different, but any silicone or silicone rubber whether it is soft, hard or a combination of both layers is all most users will ever need. I buy both and prefer mine in a leather flip wallet. I already have plenty of USB-C adapters that work with most USB-C cables and new phones, but cases require a custom fit and design for each model number as models and cameras change the design and dimensions slightly to not fit the next generation or others even with the same size screen. Sometimes, it takes buyers a while to get around to buying one and others failed to see the need for it until it was too late.

It also has expandable storage that is excellent for packing in documents and tons of pics and videos (I TB is perfect!) .

    I’ve been using my Samsung Note9 since 2019 when I bought it second hand at around $350 or something. It’s been such a good phone but sadly it’s now lagging in the most important area a phone should never lag in, like making phone calls, even when trying to call my voicemail it just says ‘calling’ for over a minute then hangs up on me, then I can’t even call anyone without it doing the same or only able to text them to call me, and then they can’t. It’s unfortunately time to upgrade but I’m now can’t even afford the second hand, previously owned or refurbished phones that are already 2 years old. I love the note series or any that come with the s-pen but can’t even dream about owning one at this point. Even people on eBay are ridiculous, for a S22 Ultra they want $600 for one that has lines on it, majorly cracked screens, and one even mentioned in the fine print that the back was starting to bulge, like seriously? They want that much for a phone that’s showing sign’s it’s about to explode? So this might be a cheapER alternative even though I will dearly miss my s-pen. If it wasn’t for the tax return I wouldn’t be able to even get this one. It’s pretty sad how expensive phones haven’t gotten and how long they last before trying to force people to buy a new one. This is considered a budget phone but it’s really not for people like me who are on SSI or other means of living. I personally do and don’t care about the SD card slot because of almost every phone in the past rejecting them and stops reading them after so many years. It doesn’t affect my decision at this point. I LOVE that it comes with long term updates. It’s rare.
    Appreciate the reviews on it.

    Everyone has a few charging blocks laying around, not really a con. You can get one for under $5 if you really need one. Also, for stutters turn off 120hz refresh rate & turn off RAM plus (RAM plus uses internal memory as RAM and is many times slower than actual RAM). The A53 actually did have a lag problem and those 2 things fixed it - and the A54 is a faster phone and big improvement over the A53; I haven't noticed any lag with it at all, but I do optimize my phones.

    Processor is more than good i must say ,can handle multi tasking excellent.

    324 at bestbuy black friday.. got it a couple days ago they have black Friday prices early. I live in Arizona I keep the brightness not even a quarter way up and it's bright enough not even past half from the bottom.. cameras good enough takes nice photos.. mind you I don't take a hell of a lot of photos only to sell things, but still compared to a iphone 7 this thing beats it, it absolutely never stutters.. you don't have your ram memory set up right... also, you probably leave every application open. Me I close them after 10 or so... even the top end phones don't come with the charger anymore

      Got to agree. My s23 (6.1" version) can super-fast charge with a 25-watt brick. Already had one laying around, but if I didn't? Less than 10 bucks on Amazon would fix it. As far as "normal" charging bricks? I've got a box full of 5 - 18-watt chargers, so do most folks that I know.

    From the Samsung website: "The Galaxy S23 Series comes with a USB C to USB C cable, SIM ejector tool and a quick start guide in the box." Whoopee!
    Even one of your "pros" sounded like a con. I can buy a huge SD card for a fraction of the cost of memory in a phone.
    When it comes down to it, is avoiding the cons worth an extra $500?

    A minor of this phone is also the screen edge. I have an annoying edge around of about 3mm! Is there any adjustment to set this on full screen? You can set some app on full screen, but not the phone. I came from a huawei p30 pro and the screen was just perfect in balance.

  • @sc0tte1-416

    I've never understood Samsung's naming convention, how is an s23 basically their best phone from looking at them all but a '5'series better than that being up in the ladder. Can someone educate me a bit here? Or is it because of the S in front of the A? Just trying to figure it all out. 👍

    • @pcarlson214
      @pcarlson214 10 месяцев назад

      It's not a "5" series, it is a Samsung "A" series (A54) which in both phones and tablets denotes their budget to mid-range line. The reason the A series runs into higher number is because Samsung's A line is fairly large, with the A14 being a true low-cost budget model to the mid-range A54.

    I wear hearing aids, so the lack of a headphone jack is not a problem. What I need to know though, is wether the phone supports the Asha protocol ( connects via Bluetooth between my hearing aids and my phone. Reviews never mention the Accessibly options, and it's quite difficult to find out without physically having the phone to test. I've already had to return my new Samsung A15, as Asha wasn't available on it. My hearings aids recognised the phone, but were unable to connect to it. I'm worried about making the same mistake again.

    Having realised my otherwise great Xiaomi is about to have security updates stopped this aspect is a priority. The con I have a big issue with is the charger costing extra. And that's a USB C each end cable, so would need a special charger! No big deal on earphones though.

  • @brentsummers7377

    The lack of even a basic charger is annoying. It is penny pinching 'green washing' that Samsung and Apple do this. It's very similar to how printer manufacturers would ship printers without including the usb cables. They did this so the retailing stores could sell usb cables at inflated prices.
