Cheap and expensive are relative to value. This video is comparing the value of X to half of its original value, thus illustrating the relativity between expensive and cheap. Perhaps if you already knew this basic understanding, you would be more successful and less stingy seeing gadget priced at £440 as cheap.

I was willing to pull out another $400 more for the S series but then Samsung had to go out of their way to try to get even more money from us by removing the SD card slot and expect us to pay more for online storage. So, I went with the A55 and save about $400. Thanks Samsung. Excellent business decision.

No offense, but I would just call it foolishness on your part. The reason they removed the SD is pretty much because of performance. You know, even the fastest, best SD Cards in the market are half-duplex connections, which means worse than even the full-duplex UFS 2.0 storage from ~8 Years ago. And if anyone uses an SD card for anything, it is going to make the phone absolutely lag like CRAZY. Remember, switching point of PCs being smooth was the phase when they adopted SSDs, not the i9s, not the RTX 3090s. If they gave SD Card Support on an S24, good luck seeing them lag in a week because no one can afford the best SD Card anyway, so it'll be bottom of the barrel crap that will make the S24 lag like a 100$ phone. You just decided to get a 10x worse phone for not much money saved, because you decided backing up photos to a laptop is too much hassle.

@lwoklidfr

Күн бұрын

@nikhilpaleti3872 lol, you will only experience that lag that you are talking about if you put all your app in your SD card, but in case you didn't know all system apps and apps you insalled all goes to your phone storage by default and some of them can't be moved like the old android in the past, so that slowing thing that you are talking about won't happen because andoid OS and apps don't go to your external storage but in your internal storage, the main purpose of SD card these days is for expansion of your phone storage where you put images, music, videos and other files and that's why it won't affect your phone performance even if you had a micro sd there, its like putting a SSD or nvme in your computer where you put the OS to make your computer run smoothly while you put all your files in HDD for large storage and longevity of the drive. srsly where did you even get that idea that it will slow your phone if you put a expandable storage in a phone?😂 did you get it from Apple? samsung removed micro SD in the flagship phones because Samsung also wants to sell their cloud storage like what Apple been doing, remember tech companies only remove things like micro sd storage, charging brick and earphones(out of the box) from phones that being released these days because they want to increase their profits not because it will slow your phone or to help the environment.

SD 8 Gen 3 chip is about the best on the market night now and IMO its worth the extra money for the phone. You'll also notice although A54 has the bigger battery (5000 mah) the S24 will still last just as long if not longer due to having the better optimized and far superior chipset plus the LTPO display can adaptively drop refresh rate down to 1hz compared to 60 on the A54. If you have the money I'd definitely go for it. Nothing at all wrong with the A54, S24 is just better in every way.

@ThisisHamidreza Yeah well maybe. I never have a phone for 7 years, I usually skip just one generation.

This is interesting because I just bought my husband the S21+ (referbished-like-new) after getting a new A54 5G a few months ago. I spent about $150 on both, after sales, fees, etc. etc. I think they are a much fairer comparison, both in price, and in stats. (Not to mention the huge difference in size between your phones. My phones are within 3", barely noticeable side-by-side. The S21+ is a bit taller and very slim.) Hope this helps budget-minded people who have different use-cases. The main differences in the A54 and the S21+ are: -The A54 is newer, but the S21+ gets 2 or 3 more years of OS updates. It's a toss up. -The camera on the S21+ has much better low-light handeling. Otherwise not a huge difference. -The S21+ has a snappier, but older CPU, and a boosted GPU, allowing room for gaming if you need it. But no noticable difference otherwise. (I never have to reboot the A54, or experience slowness. I run a lot more apps than he does too.) -The A54 has better battery life. I get 1 - 1.5 days more than my husband from a charge. -The S21+ has wireless charging, and also Superfast charging. He can go from 0-50% in 20 mintues on my 5A charger laptop charger, over USB-C PD 3.0. But he never uses Super-fast mode because it ages the battery. -The A54 has an external SD card slot. (They're both the same size internal disks, 128GB.) This is important to me. -The S21+ has 2 more GB of RAM (8GB vs 6GB). Again, only needed for gaming and crazy-amounts of multitasking. -The S21+ has a 120hz screen -- Nice to have but not necessary. My screen looks great. -Admittedly, the S21+ has MUCH better external speakers. Oh well. I'll get headphones. -The S21+ has moderate water resistance. (This is what made me decide to get it for him. He's a welder, and very hard on phones.) -My husband is impressed with the S21+ instantanious facial recognition, due to low-light sensors, and a better GPU/CPU. -The A54 gets a much better 5G signal inside our house (T-mobile). However, he just texted me from an airplane at 30,000 feet (Verizon.) (So fast 5G vs. extremely long-range 4G/5G signal.)

Lucky you! I had s24 Plus for 13 days but returned it because it kept locking up. USA / ATT spec. Watching this video on a a35 with no lock uo issues

its a shame the midrangers never get usb 3. always at usb 2.0. even a 7 year old samsung s8 has usb 3.1 and will outperform the 2024 model a55 when it comes to transferring files. I use my phone as a tool (a mini computer) and this feature usb 3 is a huge difference. all the geekbench/antutu score wont mean anything when usb 3.1 is more than 20X the speed of usb 2.0

To all the people wondering about how much CPU speed actuall matters: A normal person can baerly make use of all the extra performance that a high end chip can offer. The baseline of a mostly smooth user experience was drawn with Qualcoms Snapdragon 801 back in 2014. This one was fast a.f. back on android KitKat. In 2018 I got a phone with a Snapdragon 660. This midrange chip has the exact same feel as the 801. Extrapolating a bit into the future, a Snapdragon 7 gen 1 will already give you the best noticable userexperience. All those computationally demanding processes occur only 0.1% of the time. What matters to 99,9% is the general smoothness of the user experience . And objectively you get all of that with a midrange chip. I have been using the SD660 for over 6 years now and bow it is starting to feel slow, but I must confess that my life would not be radically different if I tradet this slightly slower phone for a faster one. Smartphones peaked somewhere around 2019.

Wonderful to see how many people compare it for fun and not think of using a phone out there in faraway locations, where it has to be used by geologists, engineers, doctors, pilots, mining engineers, overlanders - all applications where the limited storage on the S24 Ultra is a deal breaker.

Ай бұрын

If you dont HAVE to upgrade, just dont. Theres not really a reason for it if this is all you use it for

When it comes to value for money, people should think carefully about what is important to them and what they actually use on a daily basis. Because for most people it won't matter in everyday life whether USB 3.x including Dex or USB 2.0. I have both an S20 model and the A54. And I actually hardly ever use Dex. And it is completely irrelevant whether an app opens a little faster or not, because once the applications are open, there are no major differences. We're talking about fractions of a second here. In addition, longer videos in 4K60 or 8K are real memory hogs. 256GB fills up very quickly - and having a memory card is not only safer, it also saves time because you don't have to constantly swap out the files. The A55 is completely sufficient for most games, not everyone plays Genshin Impact for hours. And the workmanship is visibly almost indistinguishable. In this respect, I now consider the S models to be overpriced, because the A55's competitor is the S24+. And that costs almost 3x as much - for around 15% more use in everyday life. For anyone who wants to surf, stream, take snapshots and occasionally play games, the A55 is the much better choice - and the money you save can be sensibly invested elsewhere.

I have the expensive model (the previous model, S23) and it has several annoying issues. When I'm using Facebook, and I click on notifications, it's always skipping back to the previous screen. But more importantly, on Google Calendar, when I'm creating an event, it's constantly making the cursor jump to the bottom of the screen, making it incredibly difficult to write in details, and it regularly will not look up the phonebook to find the email address of the person I want to invite the event. These two calendar issues are a massive issue for me, because this is how I organise all jobs for my contractors and for years with every other phone, I never had either of these issues. It's a total nightmare of a phone for me, considering I got this phone as a work phone and I should be able to work from it when I'm away from my computer, but it is really difficult to so so. I would not recommend this phone, at all.

Data transfer is faster and easier if you use QuickShare for A55 since its port is limited to USB 2.0 Even if you want to transfer via WiFi (QuickShare), it will be limited by MicroSD speed via overhead and so on. Since WiFi 6, at ideal real time, has 1.2 Gbps, at best it will be a bit slower. In short, A55 is 80% of S24 features. You will feel the main differentiation is camera and Ai features. If you only use your phone as mean of communication and entertainment, A55 is enough. Oh, just remember than S24 has 7 major android support while A55 has 4 major android support. So, in a long run, S24 might be better for 2nd hand market

So still confused by conflicting statement's from different places, does the A55 5g have wireless charging or not?

The whole A series currently doesn't support wireless charging.

you forgot to mention LTPO, after getting my A52s and being unable to use 120hz about a year and a half later, I realise that it's a huge dealbreaker in battery life

Why were u unable to use it? Doesn't A52s also have a 120Hz panel ?

@BallerShortsHD

Ай бұрын

@masquerade_phantomx9270 yes, but 120hz drains alot of battery when there is no LTPO, and with battery degradation, you are forced to either use 60hz or change the battery

You must be a rich man to call 400 cheap 😅

Had A55, good phone but no wireless charging was a dealbreaker for me.

My S8 gave up 2 years ago well out of warranty. The replacement S22 has just given up after 18months, well inside warranty. Samsung said it can’t be repaired and will offer an alternative. Not sure what I’m entitled to.

Honestly, rather than buying the A55 now. It's better to buy older flagships like the S22 plus. Almost the same price or lower, better screen, better build and design (for me, the S22 series peaked at design), better processor, great cameras, and great overall experience. You can also make a video about this 😅😅. Is it worth it to buy older flagships like S20 or S21 than the new mid range like the A55 or A35?

But still.. kodus to samsung creating one of the most premium looking mid range phone👏 (They could have done the bezels of the screen much better though 😅)

0:20 bruh with this logic oneplus, redmi, realme, oppo, vivo, iqoo phones are way more value for money than A55 in india a55 is considered such a waste of money because in same prize u can get specs close to s24 lol

Watching from S24+ I can confirm you Samsung has that premium quality on their flagship phones, idk even the UI feels premium, the material used everything, they just makes you feel like you took the right decision on buying their flagships, noting that I was using A54.

S23 with snapdragon or s24 exenes

Great video, but please use video tags...please

Nice wallpapers

A55 doesn’t support 4k 60fps according to GSMarena. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Yes that is true you cannot record 4k 60fps but can do in 30fps. You can still recording 1080p 60fps I have the S23, I can record 4k 60fps 8k 24fps 1080p 120fps not slow mo its normal recording. He lied to you

if we are saving then go for S23 which will be nearly same price as A55 and have much better experience.

11:28 - AI Summarize web page has a mistake - A55 5G is powered by a 4nm Exynos 1480 processor Its not 5nm Exynos 1280 processor. Samsung needs to fix bugs in AI.

A lot of people don't realize the 7 years of updates are also baked into the price of the s24, which helps with resale value

Still love my Samsung Z Fold 3!

I´m currently using the a55 and so far it´s been very good

Only con are the rather thick bezels

The base models of samsungs s series are basically a joke to me. The camera hardware remains unchanged for years now and pair that up with the low battery capacity, slow charging and the return of the exynos chips, there are just tons of better phones at the price-point they are selling it. The only saving grace that they have is literally just their software imo.

I prefer the ultra design I had s21 ultra now using s24 ultra I like my phones big bulky this is why I had and loved the samsung note 10+

why did you crop the edges of the A55 in photoshop?

I used to buy Chinese brands Huawei, Blackview... First of all, there's no guarantee your data is safe. Then... it probably won't get a lot of software support (meaning it's likely to be outdated soon) and if something goes wrong... You may or may not be given proper customer support. Stick with South Korean companies I would say!

You should try the Samsung z flip 5 and z fold 5

S23 vs A55 would be a better comparison considering the price cuts on S23.

Really insulting how you're calling a £440 phone "cheap"

I trade in the regular iPhone 15 for regular s24 so happy I make the right move
