Samsung Galaxy A54: Everything you need to know
Does the 2023 A series look like an A+?
Although Samsung's S-series smartphones tend to grab the headlines, it's the company's A-series devices that often fill the best-selling charts around the world.
This trend looks set to continue with the launch of the long-awaited Samsung Galaxy A54 5G, one of the Korean giant's major mid-range phone releases for 2023.
We had high hopes for the 2022 Galaxy A53, and it largely delivered, but it was held back by terrible performance. Let's hope the A54 doesn't suffer the same fate.
Here's everything you need to know and some of my first impressions of the phones, including their exceptional software support.

What features and specifications does the Samsung Galaxy A54 have?
The Galaxy A54's specs look better than the phone's sub-£500 price tag suggests. Here is a snapshot:
✓6.4-inch 120Hz FHD+ AMOLED display
✓Samsung Exynos 1380 chipset
✓8GB LPDDR4X RAM
✓128/256 GB UFS 3.1 storage
✓5000 mAh battery
✓25W cable charging
Camera
✓12MP f/2.2 ultra-wide
f/1.8 main with OIS
✓Macro camera 5Mp f/2.4
✓32Mp f/2.2 front camera
✓5G
✓WiFi 6
✓Bluetooth
✓IP67
✓Gorilla Glass 5 front and back
✓158.2 x 76.7 x 8.2 mm
✓202 g
✓Android 13 with One UI 5.1
✓Four years of software updates
✓Five years of security updates
Aside from the brand new Exynos chipset, which is an unknown quantity, the specs here are largely confirmed. It looks like a top spec from two years ago.
In fact, the 50Mp main camera, 5000mAh battery and five-year software support are right out of flagship territory, beating many more expensive phones on the market today. Kudos to Samsung for that.
The 120Hz display is excellent and goes some way to justifying this phone being more expensive than the google Pixel 6a. You also get a 256GB option with expandable storage up to 1TB.
