    I have the A54 and use it everyday. I'm in a large city in ohio and find that I can't get service in many areas of town.
    It's frustrating to say the least. I find the phone to be fast with few lockups. Although I do suffer from lock up needing to recycle my phone. Over all I still rate the phone above average. Would I buy another one, unlikely.

        Well, the phone works just fine, and I'm supper happy with it. I felt no real slaginess. Ok this was the first phone I had over 200eur, so haven't used better models.
        The processor may be weaker than competition, but it could have been chosen such as to have more battery life.

          Copied the wrong comment... why did I even get redirected to Sony Ericsson W508?!
          Anonymous, dec 2 2023:
          "Google is bad at hardware. Besides overheating with tensytove, they are now saying that display bumps on the pixel 8 pro are cosmetic only and don't affect performance.
          Sounds like used phone sellers who insist AMOLED burns are normal and don't cause bad performance. 😂"
          I discovered the Pixel 8 & pro display bumps issue thanks to you. Google QC is atrocious.

            Replying to an anonymous, 2 Dec 2023. I tried quoting, but it dumped me on Sony Ericsson W508:
            "What are you on about? The A52s successor was gutted since it will mean less TWS sales. Which people keep forgetting that those will still work even if there was a 3.5mm hole in it.
            And sd 778g >>> exystove. A5X series killed a certain A7X which were the previous value for money batch. The same thing will be done to the A5X series by the A3X ones."
            I now discovered the P8/P8P display bump issue. Thanks. Google's QC is atrocious.

                Marcos Goncalves, 27 Jan 2024I considered send to waranty and ask for another one. Mine ... moreYou not having issues with your phone doesn't me other people's phone issues do not exist.

                  spike8384, 07 Jan 2024What are you talking about¿ I have the A54 for almost a yea... moreLike @nuy i have also a34 and a54 and a52s. First 5 months second 2 months, and third about 1.5 year and they run soooo good. I use all them on one charger, also bought one one I travel and never had issues! I am so proud of Samsung. All my phones are in cases without scratches from 1st day and with protective glasses and beside that all non-demandable games runs smothly.

                    Marcos Goncalves, 27 Jan 2024I considered send to waranty and ask for another one. Mine ... moreWell , i use it for daily tasks only. I don't play games. I compared to a34 to A54. A34 doesn't have these issues at all. A54 lags when you initiate an app or a gesture for the first time after that it's good but i can clearly feel the lag at first.

I switch between apps and even between games (sometimes, the game in the background reset, but sometimes only).

                        Again, isn't the perfect phone, but I don't know how you guys use the smarthphone to be so laggy, cuz once again, mine runs without issues.

                          Ismoiljon, 22 Jan 2024I have not had like this issue since July 2023How's it performing now?

                            I'm using the A54 for six months and unfortunately i agree with Gsmarena's review. Geekbench or Antutu scores don't show user experiences. The phone stutters randomly. Esecially when you switch between apps, unlock your phone or pull down the notification menu.

                              I come from owning an S22 and an S10+ before that. Apart from those being very different devices between them (mainly because of the display), do you know what I miss the most from having an S-series?


                              Yeah, me neither.

                                  I thought anyone else might've had the same problem with the fingerprint sensor but maybe it's just me. My phone will not stop relentlessly trying to unlock itself in my pocket, so I take it out to open it and I'm greeted with "Try again in 4 hours" like.. OKAY! Thanks! So I just am not able to enjoy the fingerprint feature at all because of this. Maybe I need a screen protector? A layer so the sensor isn't so.. sensitive. I love it :|

                                    I've had an A54 for about 6 months It has been excellent. No lagginess whatsoever. My only problem with it is that I didn't purchase it sooner
