If you are looking for a mid-range smartphone that offers you long software and security updates, you won’t go wrong with the Samsung Galaxy A-series, specifically the Samsung Galaxy A54 5G which I reviewed earlier.

Longevity Software & Security Updates

You don’t need to pay the Samsung flagship’s price to get flagship software and security support as the Samsung Galaxy A54 5G will get exceptional long 5 years of security updates and 4 generations of Android updates. This is exactly what the new flagship Samsung Galaxy S23 series is receiving.

You will be assured to enjoy the latest Android OS and security protection throughout your ownership of the device.

The Most Premium Galaxy A-series

The Samsung Galaxy A54 5G is the first Galaxy A-series to use a more premium glass material build for its back cover. The Corning Glass Glass 5 covered both the front display and rear cover.

Making it to most premium Galaxy A-series Samsung ever released.

Generous Storage with Expansion

In Malaysia, we are offered in single configurations; 8GB of internal storage with generous 256GB internal storage. Unlike the flagship’s Galaxy S23 series, the Galaxy A54 5G has a microSD card expansion slot that supports up to 1TB. If you are a person that doesn’t frequently have storage housekeeping or you are buying it for your parent, this is something that comes in handy.

Brilliant Display

Sporting a just-right size 6.4″ SuperAMOLED display that boasts up to 1,000 nits peak brightness. It also features an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate and adaptive brightness or what Samsung called its Vision Booster.

The smooth 120Hz makes scrolling and gaming a delightful experience and the Vision Booster increases visibility under bright sunlight without degrading its color output.

Great Performance with Good Power Efficiency

Under the hood is the new Samsung Exynos 1380 5G chip which is fabricated on a 5nm process. It provides pretty good performance while generating decent heat even under highly demanding task pressure like gaming and mobile video editing.

This translated to a greater user experience and longer battery life.

Bonus: Flagship Primary Camera

Samsung may not disclose what camera sensor uses on its 50MP primary camera. In my review, I noticed it performs pretty well and is close to what the flagship Samsung Galaxy S23‘s camera is capable of. I can confidently tell the Samsung GN3 sensor was used on the Galaxy A54 5G which is a good sign.

The Samsung Galaxy A54 5G is available now at RM 1,899 and comes in four colorways, Awesome White, Awesome Lime, Awesome Graphite, and Awesome Violet. You will receive a 1-year extended warranty, a FREE silicon cover, and receive an additional rebate of RM 150 when you trade in your old device at the Samsung E-Store.
