Peak brightness is the biggest issue with my A53. It says it does 800 nits, but when I go out on a sunny day, I can barely see anything. Sometimes it gets to a point where I can't use my phone at all. Also now and then I experience some serious lag.

Thank you for this in depth analysis of these phones! This was really helpful.

Marques, I'm actually only watching this video because I am considering the A54 model because of the expandable storage. I'm just confused about the security and having to deal with a cloud and being able to keep photos and videos and documents long-term if the phone were to break without having expandable storage.

I believe the frame is plastic, rather than aluminum. However, the fact that you mistakenly concluded that it was aluminum says something about the build quality and premium feel, despite the frame being plastic. The only issue would be obviously the durability, but I'm pretty sure many people will be putting it in a case anyway.

I feel like no matter which of these phones you bought you would feel validated in your decision after watching this video. The person who bought the a54 would see that they got a phone that can compete in a lot of ways with the bigger phone for much cheaper, while the person who bought the s23 Ultra would see that they got real, significant extra features across the board for the money they spent.

I have an S23, which I was able to trade my old Galaxy Note 8 in for, very happy with the phone, although I don't think I'd notice if I stepped it down to the A54. I don't take picture or video, and I lock my screen to 120hz anyway, if I didn't get my phone to play some games on, I could very well use the A54 without issue at all maybe other than the fact that it's 6.4 inches instead of 6.1 which is a size I'm very comfortable with

I love the way you did your sound check, been watching flossy, Carter, huh? Great video really enjoyed.. You have a friend in Columbus Ohio :-)!

And you should take a look at the extensive measurement tests before you tell such nonsense. Just 3-4 years ago, the values ​​of the A54 were hardly achievable even for flagships. If you think that flagships are a different world, you have to use such a smartphone excessively nowadays to see the differences.

And then there's the fairy tale that you could already tell in the shop or when you first set it up - it works exactly the same as with the S models. However, since the 21 series, none of them have had a memory card extension. And how many S models with eSim/Dualsim function PLUS simultaneous memory card use are there? I'll tell you: the A54 is all alone on the market. The competition doesn't even have that.

This was an important comparison for me as im going to buy A54 in coming days. Thank you MKBHD

Very good video with important points like the camera often being the biggest trade up between classes and also a huge thumbs up for mentioning that in most normal (day) conditions mid range phones offer very good quality (almost on flagship level) with only minor difference from expensive high end models because that's what many people don't uderstand (that you don't always need perfect cameras to capture something). However I would like to correct you on the fact that the S23 Ultra does not have LTPO display and in no circumstance it goes down to 1Hz, never. When not locked to 60Hz, the Ultra will only switch between 24Hz when idling (no touches) or 120Hz when used (display is being touched) with the transition being literally instant. It does however switch to 25/30/50/60/90 and possibly even more when video or game etc. has that refresh rate.

I was thinking of buying the A54 as a replacement for my very old Note 8 and then I found a great condition used S21 Ultra for about $30 cheaper and went with the Ultra. The Ultra's battery was still in good condition and the thing that made me chose the Ultra was the lack of wireless charging of the A54 plus the Ultra looks nicer IMO.

When it comes to phone cameras the most important factor is the person taking the photograph. We have a framed photo on our living room wall of our dog that was that was taken on a Samsung Galaxy 3 phone. To this day it still looks stunning..

Quite happy with my A54. Two things I did not like - I had to buy USB-C to 3,5mm jack adapter since there is no 3,5mm jack and I still want to use my wired headphones. And 2nd - the sticking out camera lenses... I never use leather pouches or any other kind of cases. So now when I put the phone on a table, it wiggles. But for the rest, I am pretty happy with the phone. Got it for free when prolonging the contract and I am not hanging on the phone that much that I would ever need more. I liked how easy was to transfer everything from my old A14... just plug the USB cable, set a few things and in 10 minutes I had all my photos / videos / programs from the old one in the new one. That's really cool and easy.

Wonder how this phone would compare when coming from a Z Flip.. Could be interesting to compare the two having such a massive price difference

I think you should dedicate at some a small segment to the radio performance between devices. They are not identical. Different frequency combinations, carrier aggregation combinations, and antenna performance mean speeds could be halved on a cheaper phone (especially uplink), and one phone may have nonexistent weak signal performance while another may be usable. Screens and cameras don't mean anything if a phone performs poorly as an actual communication device. I know the Pixel devices I've tested only support 3/4 global positioning networks while the A54 and up support all 4, which is another thing that will make a difference out in the field besides mobile network performance.

liked the review, hoping that we get an update on that debate of "an old flagship or a new midrange". When recommending phones usually it's a question that commonly arises. I still recommend 1-2 year old flagships since I think they'll last longer, but curious bc of the current state of things

I am really enjoying my A54 here in Australia it also came with a Samsung Watch 4 via redemption. Quite a steal for the price imo

I'm using the a54, and I think it's the first device I've ever used that MKBHD had reviewed. Nice.

I've been running the A32 and aside from a little stuttering in Genshin Impact, its fine. I don't feel like I'm losing out, especially after trialling cheaper devices. My only gripe with the A series is the lack of video output without Chromecast or somesuch. It only needs that one thing and I could say you wouldn't need anything else.

I have used the 2021 model of the A5X series, the Galaxy A52s 5G for the past year or so. I have also used the Asus Zenfone 8 with a Snapdragon 888 SoC and I have to admit the A52s still remains my most comfortable, most usable device I've ever used. Sure, after a year of use it has a tendency to stutter a little bit if you reboot it, most app loading times take a fraction of a second longer and it is overall not quite as fast as a modern Snapdragon 8-series SoC but it comes damn near close. The A5X series displays with the 120Hz AMOLED screens are absolutely gorgeous with high contrast, amazing saturation (often much better than the double MSRP Zenfone 8), it still comes with a headphone jack AND it has amazing battery life. While the cameras aren't world record breaking by any means, they're serviceable and are decent enough if you don't rely on them too much. Overall, I think Samsung checks many, many boxes with the A52, A52s and A54 series (A53 was lack luster though with a weaker SoC).

A52s is the best phone of all time. Price, and what it offers for the price, there's no phone to match that.

i just traded in my A51 for the new A54. Given the lack of availability of the oppos, vivos, nothings of the east Samsung has got a great option in this phone in the mid range segment. i loved my a51, only had to switch it because the android updates were not coming fast enough and my work email kept getting blocked because of that. Also, pleasantly surprised to use 5G in this range, pretty quick. Can't wait to install a custom kernel when it gets old to improve performance.

LOL! Custom kernel on a 2023 Samsung. Good luck buddy, might wanna return that while you still can. Even if you COULD figure out a way to flash something, nobody bothers with Samsung garbage because of their outdated hardware and borderline rapist mentality software.

Nothing isn't from the East.

I have never owned an A series. But I would like to know if they get the same amount of updates as their flagship devices?
