While hunting for the best deals on popular devices, we came across this gem on Amazon’s best-selling mobile phones – the price reduction is clearly going down a treat with shoppers.
Budget-friendly alternatives are plentiful, and picking the right one for your needs may require a little bit of work; luckily, Senior Writer Matt Breen rounded up some of the best budget smartphones to make your job a little easier, and it includes the A54 which Matt refers to as ‘a mobile that should be on any Android shopper’s list of potential purchases.’
If, however, you’ve got a larger budget and want a flagship device but aren’t after the latest release, Amazon has also slashed the price of the Samsung Galaxy S23 by 17% to £749, and while it may have recently been dethroned as the current flagship, it’s still packed with high-end tech you’ll love.
There’s a lot to take in with both the S23 and A54, so if you’re after a comparison of the two Android devices, our Samsung Galaxy A54 vs Galaxy S23 explainer makes it easy to understand the differences.
For anyone set on a budget-friendly device, here’s what the A54 is capable of.
Anybody after a new phone usually considers the quality of the camera, and the A54 does not disappoint with a 50-megapixel rear camera. It’s as powerful as current flagship devices, so you can expect to take crisp, quality photos every time.
If you’re often stuck on your phone reading articles, watching shows, or just keeping in touch, the 6.4-inch infinity display provides more than enough room while ensuring anything you do watch competes with some at-home televisions as it’s Full HD.
Those who forget to put their phone on charge overnight will love the 5,000mAh battery, the largest Samsung currently provide, as it promises to go up to 2 days without needing a rest – however, this likely depends on your usage, so a safe bet is to assume around 24 hours.
This cost-conscious choice is also 5G ready, so you’ll be enjoying much faster internet speeds should you be coming from a 4G device.
One shopper who left a perfect 5-star rating noted it’s a ‘mid-range phone with a high-end look’, so if you’re concerned about the appearance or overall feel of the phone, you’re in safe hands with the A54.
Another who put it to the test stated, ‘The phone itself performs as well as phones higher in the Samsung range but for a lot less money. The screen is bright and clear, the speed of operation is very good, and it is very responsive to touch. [I’ve] had it a while now and have not found anything I don’t like.’ so if you want a great device without having to sell a kidney, you may have found the perfect match.
