I've had this phone for about 2 months now, I had an S10 before this for the past 4 years. Here are my thoughts. The Good: Battery life is incredible, lasts me 2 days at a minimum. Camera quality is a definite increase from the S10. Size of the phone is nice. 120hz display is a noticeable upgrade.
The Bad: Slow. Very slow. I know this phone isn't the flagship model, but I figured upgrading by 4 years would not bring me back in time but I was wrong. I do not play any games on my phone. I use it for Google searches, scrolling Instagram, taking pictures, calculator, not much.. so the speed shouldn't be a big deal, right? Well, this thing feels a 3g phone in the middle of nowhere... even in the middle of town with full signal this phone sometimes won't even load a Google search. It won't load Maps when I need it, and quite honestly has been very disappointing. It's not just the network that is slow either. Taking photos with the flash takes way too long to process and take. It's ridiculous. I was really hoping this was going to be a good phone since it has the ability to add an SD and is much cheaper than than the S23 but I was wrong. I expected more from Samsung.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung A54 performs above its class. I was able to use all the apps and games and multitask without any issues. Includes fast charge and water resistance. 6gb ram and fast processor.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use it for watching videos and playing games and playing with my pictures. I love all the features it had for adding stuff to your pictures. It had great video streaming capabilities. I love the picture quality of playing games
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The phone needs constant rebooting, sometimes it just reboots on its own. The Bluetooth just stops working and I have to reboot the phone. It constantly drops calls and calls go directly to voice mail

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's most definitely not a powerhouse but for the price it's not gonna be beat. I went with this cheaper more budget friendly option purely because it has expandable storage. I hate that all the new flagships no longer have sd card slots.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mostly I use this device for social media, take pics and video. Great quality, no lags, camera is fast and very good.
Only thing I have to say is a bit of overheating. Nothing too bad.
