Samsung Galaxy A54 5G

Overview

The Samsung Galaxy A54 is a solid mid-ranger that ticks most boxes – it has a great display, premium build, a decent camera setup and a large battery – but slight performance niggles and inconsistent battery life stop it from being an instant recommendation.

The Samsung Galaxy A54 5G is an affordable phone that doesn't skimp on quality or features, making it an appealing alternative to pricey flagships.

The Galaxy A54 is the better and more well-rounded device between the two. If you currently have the Galaxy A53 and are happy with it, the Galaxy A54 may not offer a great enough difference to justify upgrading. For anyone looking for a new device at a midrange price, the Galaxy A54 is tough to beat at around $450.

If you stick with Samsung, my only advice is to avoid paying the MSRP. Yes, it's affordable at $450, but the phone has already dipped to $375 despite being on the market for a few weeks. Like last year's A53, it'll most likely dip even lower during major sale events like Memorial Day and Amazon Prime Day. At those prices, it's a no-brainer.
