This video is meant to make you question my decision. I could've switched to the S23 Ultra, yes, but the thing is the S23 Ultra is already amazing. The switch wouldn't have been that impactful. I wanted to test myself and do a challenging switch. That's why this video exists. (also, I went from a pro-model iPhone to a mid-range Samsung, and the experience was not very far apart... Samsung's got a solid one with the A54.) Had to address this, I saw a lot of comments about this particular switch, that's my stance on it. Hope you enjoyed the video!

What's really sad is that all these people commenting about going from a iphone to a mid range and not switching to a galaxy s23 ultra. But even though it's a mid range android, he didn't have a lot of bad to say about it. The point is that even a mid range android can compete in a lot of areas with all iphones. Oh and by the way I'm not a Apple hater, I actually use both platforms.

If you switch from android to iphone, you get mild depression, uncontrollable anger and have child like temper tantrums. Just like Bruce Banner switching to the Hulk. The rage is real.

I definitely understand how but I must disagree for myself specifically. I am 27 and since age 18 I have constantly switched. Ill have an android. Then in a couple years when its time for a new phone I get an iphone. Rinse and repeat. Every 2-4 years I switch to the opposite to see how the other side is living. I really like both and appreciate them in their own ways. I can say the only thing that keeps me returning to iphone is garageband. That is it. I literally do NOT care about anything else specific to apple than that

I think more tech KZreadrs should switch from expensive flagship phones to these excellent budget and mid range phones. Because these $200-500 phones are getting so good that it is difficult to justify spending double or triple the money on phones simply for status and bragging rights. The a54 is a great example of a mid range phone that does literally everything a flagship can do at half the cost. It isn't a perfect device but even expensive flagships have their issues.

It has all the same features minus camera, so again camera is something that is super good on s23u, but here with A54 its not bad either, you'll not feel any difference outdoors during day time(but who uses camera anyway except of occasions like wedding or birthdays) for daily pics and tourism purpose the camera is decent enough. Last not least price s23ultra i bought here in denmark for 10.000dkk(1440 usd) A54 i bought in winter sales for 1800dkk(260 usd) 😂 go figure

Love to see your Samsung laptop/tablet video

After a while, Vic. 😊 Good to see you back ❤

I can understand the content of this video and it is a good one. Should you have compared it to a Samsung flagship? I mean yeah it makes total sense to have done that. Because having a top tier Apple product and switching to a mid-range Android device is eh... BUT this comparison can fill in the gap for some people who wants an idea and feeling of the "what if's". Hard to explain but I get it.

If you install Good Lock you can also change the icons to any icon pack you have. There's also a double tap to wake the screen feature and single tap on the home screen to turn off the display

Only compare price to price phones...and get Snapdragon SOC for more stability. The others, although are improving and are in flagship phones like the Exynos SOC, can be good but the dip in performance can be noticeable.

Did you do a full drain and recharge cycle on it? It could be a battery estimate calibration issue, rather than actual capacity decrease? This is apparently the case with some pixel 7a phones too, people complain about bad battery, but then it turns if they run it down it will stay on for 10+ hours on that last 1%

Good Lock really takes samsung phone's optimisation to the next level, Good video, Keep it up sir!

Fair and detailed review; just what I want. You can use the s21fe which comes with Snapdragon 888 and that phone offers real good cameras than this A54. The problem is with the Exynos processor.

Samsung does a lot of image processing after having taken the picture. That's why the live camera tends to look worse. Doing all the processing in real time would take too much computing power and also drain the battery real quick.

Hello.where did you get that nice wallpaper?

I'm really debating this or the Moto G Stylus 5g 2023 6gb ram/256gb version, I can get both really cheap on my carrier, about ~$170 or so... It's the 6gb ram version of the A54 5g as well. I love the screen and camera quality I've seen so far from the A54 5G, however many online seem to REALLY rag on the Exynos processor calling it utter crap unusable garbage...surely it's not THAT bad is it? The Moto G Stylus 5g 2023 has a snapdragon 6 gen 1 cpu. The a54 has quite a bit longer support cycle but honestly both are so cheap I'll just get something else decent enough in a couple years anyway. Some reviews seem to kinda rag on the Moto G's camera quality but I could possibly find a GCAM port for it somewhere online since it has a snapdragon cpu... some say the A54's performance has actually gotten better over time with updates too?

Midrange phones have come along way. I personally cannot go from using flagship cameras and chipsets to midrange alternatives. Though it is really nice that these options do exist.

i had a apple 14 S23 and i kept the a54 5g great value and works great

Great review! Love these videos, it’s refreshing to see how other Android phones hold up in comparison to apple.

Can you share that wallpaper?

I am a mid range cell phone user and the A54 5G IS going to be my next phone replacing my A32 and giving my granddaughter my A32. I don't use my phone as a computer nor do i play game`s on it and my phone is not in my hand 24/7. I just need a communication device and recently took on data to help me in my travels. Not everyone need`s a $1,200 phone and mid range meets my need`s and i will move to the A54 5G and i recommend the Samsung Galaxy A series phone along with many other users who are very happy with the price and performance.

skipped iphone15 pro and soon base s24(exynos) for s23. happy with it so far.

I am curious why do the people I see who review Samsung phones use Google Messages instead of Samsung Messages? I prefer the Samsung version but is there anything to the Google one that makes it better.

Can u give the wallpaper?

I am not into gaming. I had the 15 pro max, then changed to 15 but felt bored and I am on my 2nd day on a54. Aside from the fingerprint sensor, maybe because of the tempered glass, everything's good so far.

This video is amazing but make more day in my life maybe again with the iphone 15 plus 6 months later.

Same i hate it

Im watching this on my Samsung Galaxy a54 5g. I got mine brand new for $60 by switching carriers. I went from the base model s23. This a54 is amazing. I play Call Of Duty Mobile on it. At first it stuttered a lot it would overheat like crazy. But after it got done learning my habits and all it does great now. The dual speakers sound kind of weird. The only thing that i wish they would have done differently with this device is made the frame out of aluminum rather than plastic. Otherwise I do not have any complaints. With the a54 make sure that you keep the ram cleaned out and restart it at least once a day if you game on it. My s23 wasnt good at all, the speakers were junk and it stuttered more than the a54 with gaming, and the ram stayed completely full. Also i wish Samsung would get rid of all their bloatware

Is that a 15 pro max?

for example wifi stays on even if you turn it off, the same for Bluetooth

Pro tip, a used flagship will almost always perform better than a new budget phone will. I currently use a s20 and it smokes the a54 in performance by a significant margin. Look for a device from 2020-2022 and you'll find some amazing deals on phones that will still last for quite a while.

A54 5g on andriod 14 is 🔥

Il y a trois chose à faire pour que la batterie ne se vide pas

I switched to a54 from 13pro… bcoz got yellow screen 😅

You could try the swipe navigation on the device

So I have an iPhone 15 plus, a Samsung a54 and, a pixel 6a. The difference for me is both my under 500 dollar phones are better to me in every way but battery life. The difference for me with my phones is that both my mid rangers are android and cost well under the price my iPhone 15 plus did and just destroy it.

A54 has a lot of good features that are more recent. the 11 is not all that good. the 11 pro is not too bad but the regular iPhone 11 compared to the A54 5G is a bigger difference. I would recommend the A54 because of its bigger brighter display, 120hz refresh rate, better processor and triple camera setup that performs well. If you got an iPhone 11 nowadays it is very unlikely that you get a brand new one, so you'll get a used one and either the battery is still okay or you'll have to get it replaced (but it won't be brand new). The A54 is still basically new, you'll find it on sale brand new for the holidays and you'll have new components in the whole phone. Just a better value overall. Hopefully that helps you make your decision :)
