  • Vibrant and large 6.7-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Plus display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate.
  • Capable 108MP main camera with OIS that captures sharp, detailed, and vibrant photos in good daylight conditions.
  • Reliable and smooth day-to-day performance with the Exynos 1380 chipset, handling multitasking and casual gaming well.
  • Long-term software support, with a commitment to four major Android OS upgrades and five years of security updates.
  • Attractive and modern design, especially the glossy back which can appear premium, despite being plastic.
  • Ample storage capacity (up to 256GB) with the option for expansion via a microSD card.
  • Strong 5G connectivity performance and useful software features like the 'Voice Focus' mode for calls.

What we don't like about Samsung Galaxy F54 5G (8GB + 256GB)

  • Slow 25W charging speed compared to competitors in the same price range.
  • No charger included in the box, requiring a separate purchase.
  • The plastic, glossy back is a major fingerprint magnet and prone to scratches.
  • Lacks stereo speakers, only featuring a single bottom-firing speaker.
  • Low-light camera performance is average, with noise and less detail in some shots.
  • Performance can slow down with very heavy use like 4K video editing or intense, prolonged gaming sessions, and the phone may heat up.
  • No official IP rating for water and dust resistance, which is a drawback compared to some alternatives.
  • Some users find the display quality average or experience occasional app crashes or touch screen unresponsiveness.
  • Comes with some pre-installed bloatware apps.

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy F54 5G is a mid-range smartphone featuring a 6.7-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Plus display with a 120Hz refresh rate and is powered by the Exynos 1380 processor, coupled with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of expandable storage. Key strengths include a massive 6,000mAh battery that can last up to two days, a versatile 108MP main camera with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) capable of 4K video recording, and a class-leading software commitment of four major OS updates and five years of security patches. Primary drawbacks include slow 25W charging speeds with no power adapter included in the box, a plastic back panel that is a major fingerprint magnet, the absence of stereo speakers and a 3.5mm headphone jack, and potential heating during extended heavy use or gaming.
