Samsung Galaxy A54: What’s new, what to expect, and more
Launch dates and prices
The Samsung Galaxy A54 was launched back in early 2023. The device hit global markets on March 24, 2023. The smartphone has competed directly against the iPhone SE 3 and the Pixel 7a. With a price tag of $449, the device is one of the most premium alternatives to the flagship offerings in the market.
Design and performance
The Galaxy A54 has a similar design to the A53 with some tweaks. It has a flat display with a chin, much like the flagship S23 and S24 devices. It bundles an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance. The most noticeable change is to the rear camera arrangement, which could have three individual sensors instead of a large module like the A53.
The Galaxy A54 comes in new exciting color options, including purple and neon shades. The rumored specs didn't change significantly from the last gen. We get a 6.4-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, 6/8GB RAM, 128 or 256GB storage, and a 5,000mAh battery.
The phone runs on Android 13-based One UI 5.0 and has an Exynos 1380 chip, supporting Bluetooth 5.3. The phone will is pitched to receive four OS updates and security patches five years after its launch.
Cameras
The camera setup on the Galaxy A54 has some significant changes compared to the A53. Samsung has replaced the 64MP primary camera on the Galaxy A53 with a 50MP sensor on the A54. Although the resolution is lower, the new 50MP sensor produces slightly better results in low-light conditions and provides a more dynamic range.
The ultra-wide 12MP and macro 5MP cameras have remained the same. There are some processing improvements given the revamped Exynos 1380 chip that powers it. This makes the Galaxy A54 capable of taking better photos than previous models. On the front, the Galaxy A54 could have a 32MP selfie camera capable of recording 4K videos.
The new Galaxy A54 smartphones have taken inspiration from the latest flagship S23 and S24 lineups. It bundles a premium design and specs sheet that makes it a superb alternative to the costlier smartphones. It'll be worth keeping an eye on the updates regarding the upcoming Galaxy A55 which will be launched soon.
