Samsung Galaxy A54 5G
Was: $449
Now: $374.99 at Amazon
Overview: 

<p><strong>Key features: Android OS, Exynos 1380 chipset, 50MP camera, 6.4-inch AMOLED display (120Hz), 5,000mAh battery <p><strong>Product launched: April 2023 <p><strong>Price history: This is the cheapest upfront price we've seen yet for unlocked devices – and barely a few weeks after launch. For comparison, Best Buy also has the device on sale for $374 right now, but that's only via an activation rebate, which will only apply to a narrow band of carriers. You can also trade in an old device for a rebate of up to $350, but obviously you'll need be to be willing to part with a fairly decent old phone to get that full discount. <p><strong>Price comparison: <a href="https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=8428&GR_URL=https%3A%2F%2Famazon.com%2Fdp%2FB0BSLR2L5R%3Fth%3D1%26tag%3Dhawk-future-20%26ascsubtag%3Dhawk-custom-tracking-20"><strong>Amazon: $374 <strong>| <a href="https://bestbuy.7tiv.net/c/1943169/614286/10014?subId1=hawk-custom-tracking&sharedId=hawk&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fsite%2Fsamsung-galaxy-a54-5g-128gb-unlocked-awesome-graphite%2F6538053.p%3FskuId%3D6538053"><strong>Best Buy: $374 <strong>| <a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=kXQk6%2AivFEQ&mid=47773&u1=hawk-custom-tracking&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.samsung.com%2Fus%2Fmobile%2Fphones%2Fgalaxy-a54%2Fbuy%2F"><strong>Samsung: $449 <p><strong>Reviews consensus:  <p><strong>Toms Guide: <a href="https://www.tomsguide.com/reviews/samsung-galaxy-a54">★★★★ | <strong>Digital Camera World: <a href="https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/reviews/samsung-galaxy-a54-5g-review-a-is-for-affordable-ish">★★★★ <p><strong>Buy it if: You want a fully-featured Android smartphone that doesn't break the bank. Sure, the A54 5G doesn't carry quite the same pedigree as the Galaxy S series, but it's still got all the same hallmarks – namely an excellent AMOLED display, a good camera, and a premium design that belies its relatively modest price tag.  <p><strong>Don't buy it if: You want the very cutting edge of performance or smartphone design. While outwardly a premium-looking device, the mid-range chipset inside the A54 5G won't match the S-series devices when it comes to outright performance.
