Hi everyone this is JD, your gadget review friend. Midrange phones are getting better and better to a point that they will look and feel like a flagship phone. I'm not talking about over the top experience but enough for you to consider this phone against other high-end and pricey models. I say a mid-range phone with the right combinations of features will certainly deliver. So, today we'll talk about my user experience of using Galaxy A54 5G, talk about all the features and quickly unbox it! Let's go to work!

the 1380 chip was introduced by Samsung with A54. I’m sure they’ll keep on updating the phone to improve ot’s performance. the 1st update I received improved the camera switching lag and some home screen stutters. So all these things should be improved

It's the best phone I've ever had, having been loyal to Samsung phone more than 15 years. Great job my friend. Keep it up. Kudos to Samsung.

Help me to choice😭. I really like the camera of A54, the reason why I want to upgrade to midrange because of better camera. Cause when I'm school, I didn't usually use my phone, just for talking pictures. However, I also like playing games up to 2-4 hours every weekend when there's no class 'cause I'm a student. Lot of people A34 is better when it comes to gaming, because of its chipset. Which one is fit or good for me? Thanks in advance
