Samsung Galaxy A54 is powered by the Samsung Exynos 1380 chipset, which is also an octa-core processor with four Cortex-A78 cores clocked at 2.4 GHz and four Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2.0 GHz. The device has a Mali-G68 MP5 GPU for graphics performance. The device also comes with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, and either 128GB or 256GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card slot. The device also runs on Android 13 with One UI 5.1 on top.

Both devices have a large 5000 mAh battery that supports 25W fast charging via a USB Type-C port. According to GSMArena’s tests, the A34 has an endurance rating of 133 hours, while the A54 has an endurance rating of 119 hours.

Camera and Features

Samsung Galaxy A34 has a triple rear camera setup that consists of a 48 MP main camera with f/1.8 aperture, phase detection autofocus (PDAF), and optical image stabilization (OIS), an 8 MP ultrawide camera with f/2.2 aperture and a 123-degree field of view, and a 5 MP macro camera with f/2.4 aperture. The rear cameras can record videos in up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second (fps), or in up to Full HD resolution at up to 60 fps. The device also has a single front-facing camera that is a 13 MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture. The front camera can also record videos in up to 4K resolution at 30 fps, or in up to Full HD resolution at up to
60 fps.

Samsung Galaxy A54 has a similar triple rear camera setup as the A34, but with some upgrades. The main camera is a 50 MP sensor with f/1.8 aperture, PDAF, and OIS, the ultrawide camera is a 12 MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture and a 123-degree field of view, and the macro camera is also a 5 MP sensor with f/2.4 aperture. The rear cameras can record videos in up to 4K resolution at 30 fps, or in up to Full HD resolution at up to 60 fps. The device also has an upgraded front-facing camera that is a 32 MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture. The front camera can also record videos in up to 4K resolution at 30 fps, or in up to Full HD resolution at up to 60 fps.

Both devices have a fingerprint scanner under the display, an accelerometer, a gyro, a compass, a virtual proximity sensor, and NFC (market/region dependent). The A54 also has a barometer (USA only).

Conclusion

Both devices offer similar features and specifications, but the A54 has some advantages over the A34, such as a higher resolution main and front camera, a glass back, and a barometer. However, the A34 has a slightly larger display, a slightly lighter weight, and a slightly longer battery life. Therefore, the choice between the two devices may depend on the user’s preferences and budget. The A34 may offer better value for those who want a bigger screen and a longer battery life, while the A54 may offer better value for those who want a better camera performance and a more premium design.
