Hello folks,
It’s Black Friday’s week and I want to buy a new smartphone to my mom. I can buy an A54 5G for ~299 € or an A34 5G for ~275 €. What do you suggest me to buy? I keep reading that the A34 CPU and overall speed are better than those in the A54.
Thanks in advance!
A34
I’d go A34. But I’d keep an eye on updates and security patches for her. 2-3 years and she’ll need another phone if she does any online shopping, banking or anything else that requires sensitive information. With the A series it’ll be important for her to reboot the phone weekly as well, even the S series gets a little wonky after a week.
shit i haven’t rebooted my A54 in a month 💀
Am I the only one who turns off their phone every evening lol
Thank you!!
Bro this isnt 2017 no more. My a32 is perfectly fine you dont need to reset every week. Just buy the option with more Ram. They differ
It’s also 2023 and your battery still needs to settle in for a week, and a few years ago the fan boys said “nah-ugh” It’s still a smart phone, it will still have bugs and glitches, all of which can be remedied by a reboot. Like I said even my S22 and S23 have hiccups. “I’m buying a phone for so and so.” Just warns me that, that someone may not grasp the concept of a smart phone beyond the one UI6 skin they see on the dialer and browser is all.
It’s not to say the A is shit, it has it uses and functions, I just note the less obvious than the exynos chip and camera aren’t amazing, the software doesn’t get updated as often that’s all.
Is Samsung settings there Is and option where you can male the smartphone reboot by itself while not in use

clock speed is irrelevant
why would you think that?
Legend 🙌🏻 Aleardy compared but couldn’t find something dramatically different… Thank you!!
For your mom? I’d say A34. It has better battery life and a bigger screen. The A54 is faster, but it’s not very noticeable.
Exactly what I thought… Thx
A54 is faster in theory. A34 can beat it speeds at times
From my experience, Samsung’s cheaper phones usually slow down quicker than more expensive ones, so I’d go with the A54.
go for Samsung A34
I have the A54, but I’d recommend the A34 for your mom. The Mediatek SoC on the A34 is as good as the A54, if not better. The displays are almost comparable. The only minor difference between the devices is the cameras but very insignificant.
Almost comparable? The a54 has a 120hz oled with built in fingerprint sensor, and the a34 has a shitty lcd panel…
They’re both 120hz OLED with integrated fingerprint reader

The A54 is more premium device and doesn’t have the stupid notch.
A54
A34 has a better processor but weak camera. A54 has a weak processor but better cameras. Choose wisely, but go for 256GB storage!
A54 gang
Avoid exynos.
