Samsung announced two new Android smartphones this morning: the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34. The two devices are in the mid-range segment. Simply put: a lot of phone for very little money.
Samsung’s Galaxy A series has actually managed to offer a lot for a not too high amount of money for years. However, the only drawback was that, unlike the flagships, the models did not look very sparkling. This time, the South Korean company has done something about that. Party, if you ask me.
Samsung Galaxy A54 is a lot of Android smartphone for little
The showpiece of the new Android duo is the Samsung Galaxy A54. Of course, the most expensive model of the two is also the one that manages to offer you, the consumer, the most. Ideal for anyone who likes to save money, but doesn’t want to sacrifice too many features.
In terms of design, the Galaxy A54 is very similar to the Samsung Galaxy S21, which was released early last month. A good development if you ask me, because this means that the South Korean company is saying goodbye to the camera island here as well.

The recommended retail price of 489 euros is attractive, but perhaps it also creates low expectations. In that respect, the Galaxy A series proves itself once again. The specifications, especially for the price, are anything but wrong.

The Android smartphone is officially available for pre-order starting today. The model with 8GB of working memory and 128GB of storage capacity is available for 489 euros. For the variant with 8GB of working memory and 256GB of storage capacity you lap up 539 euros.
Galaxy A34 goes one step further
For those who would love to have an Android phone from Samsung in their home, but do not want to spend the amount of 489, there is also the Galaxy A34. The little brother of the A54 so to speak.

With a suggested retail price of 389 euros, this model is even more affordable. This is of course reflected in the specifications, but of course that should not spoil the fun.
In my opinion, there is still plenty to experience with the Samsung Galaxy A34:

If you opt for the variant with 8GB of working memory and 256GB of storage capacity, Samsung will make you 459 euros lighter.
