Galaxy A54 vs Poco F5 Speed Test - Let's find out how much of a difference in performance for these similar-priced phones! Share your thoughts, questions, and comments, and enjoy the content!
Poco F5 in the video seems to be running in the performance mode. Please verify and make sure that the Samsung is running in a comparable state as well.
I hate when people justify lags on samsungs A series by saying that these are cheap phones, when these phones are not cheap compared to xiaomi or used flagship phones which at the same or lower price will work perfectly without lags
Exactly as you said, that has always been my biggest problem with Samsung's A series phones or maybe Samsung is general. Only S series phones get the best and the other get absolutely nothing. Comparing these phones and taking their price tags into consideration, Poco (Xiaomi) totally nails it.
Samsung should really optimize the UI in midrange phones. Not necessarily keep all apps in the background open but at least don't be so laggy, Google with the pixel 7a at around the same price is much smoother
@shaaz... I got the A52s with snapdragon chipset and animations sometimes are laggy, it's not the processor, it's samsung's fault as they don't optimize One UI
Some Chinese manufacturers offer great specs for price, they've mastered it alright. Now if only they can become as consistent in the software department. Android 14 is in the view, yet there are relatively recent phones that hasn't even got Android 13 yet. The only thing that keeps Samsung on top is their long and RELIABLE software support.
@timeholder4068 "Just get a cistom ROM" >Not the best solution. >Not as stable >problem with updates >not all features work, sometimes >for some people, it is pretty complicated to install A custom ROM should be an option, not the go-to solution.
@@justsomeguywithgreenhair the thing with updates is actually an advantage with custom roms, especially with security updates. and with enough time they could be even more stable than memeui which is known for being buggy
@@justsomeguywithgreenhairbut, the problem is, software updates will never improve the performance of your phone, maybe it will open the thermal limit, but it will get hot easily.
Motherboard problem only occurs on a one specific budget Xiaomi phone, whereas Samsung is notorious for their green line screen problem across a variety of their FLAGSHIP Galaxy S-series devices, starting from the S20 series.
Great video. This is exactly why I will never trust Exynos. It baffles when people like MKBHD crib about the Pixel 6A's 60hz refresh rate, while at the same time, saying that the A53 is a better phone than the 6A. Exynos phones are a laggy, buggy mess, at a higher price even when being at 120Hz. Ridiculous.
@@atrik1st716 Same as my Zenfone 9. Literally once it gets Android 14 it's done, but I have no issues with that cos I could go with a custom ROM and that's it, or stay in A14 till it has no support from other apps.
@@atrik1st716As opposed to 5 years of support, but cannot even make it past 3 years because of how terrible the phone generally performs with its low-end hardware.
I don't know why you guys disagree. He's right. If you can't afford Samsung flagship get a different brand. Heck, in my country this a54 and the red magic 6r cost around the same. I don't think I need to explain how much of a scam an exynos Samsung is. You'd have to be really "smart" to buy a non flagship exynos Samsung 💀
they bragging about samsung 5years android update, but lets be honest you not buying this phone and use it for five years or more, maybe 2percent of the world population uses phone for about 5years but in general, us people seek for new devices every year
@@defigaming9996so far my only issue is that I haven't been able to get the MI unlock tool to connect to the phone 😢 besides that the phone got warm with average usage (web browsing, WhatsApp, TH-cam, no calls video) in the beginning but after a few charging cycles it's stopped happening. Battery and performance is insane. I'm sitting at 3.5 hrs SOT and 71% charge.
If you can buy the Xiaomi 13 Pro for comparison, that would be great because in Chinese user testing, the smoothness and gaming performance have surpassed the iPhone 14 Pro. Additionally, I can tell you that Samsung's market share in China is only a pitiful 1% because there are many phones in China that are better and cheaper than Samsung😂
My Mi 9T is still alive and plenty fast now, i think the A50 was the competitor that time for the same price. The build quality is miles ahead, mi 9t feels premium compared to the cheap plastic feel of the a50. That samsung has exynos too and just a year later, my friend who owns it felt how the performance degraded already so he sold it.
@@senthitharsan8822El problema de las placas base está resuelto en esta generación, además paso en la India, y fue hace dos meses, está más que resuelto.
Once I visited a Samsung service center complaining about the lagging of my Samsung phone. The service guy checked my phone and told me due to 'Candy crush' App installed on the phone the phone was lagging. I immediately got out of that service center.
I change my phone every year too, but always buy 2nd used phone Samsung Note10+, Vivo X50 Pro, Iphone 12 Pro, Vivo X70, Huawei P50 Pro and now Iphone 13 Pro
Poco is better in build quality (glass back vs Samsung's cheap plastic), performace, aimations, smoothness, gaming, ram management, and most important for all people with healthy mind.. it's cheaper.. so yeah, it's a clever choice
I think probably hear the people know what are the conditions of the motherboard of the Poco phones if we don't talk about the performance and if you talk about the lifeline of this phones the so the Samsung will be the best option because it will live lifelong
Here in mexico m54 8/128 costs 539 dollars and poco f5 pro 12/512 costs 513 just because its samsung that dosent mean is the best specially with lagxynos at least they should use Snapdragon for this price
now guess which one has better display, better cameras, ip67,better battery, better software with 4 or 5 years of upgrades , not everyone buys a phone for gaming
Better display? Poco F5 has Dolby Vision support, A54 doesn't. And it is a true 12-bit display with 68B colors, as opposed to A54's 10-bit (8+2 from software). Better cameras? Okay I give it to A54. Not like a massive difference though, and Poco F5 can still take nice pictures. IP67, how careless can you really be to be super reliant on that ingress protection? In any case, the Poco F5 is at least rated IP53 for some simple liquid spills, which is far more than enough for the vast majority of scenarios in reality (unless of course you are a swimmer, in that case, why are you putting your phone inside your pocket when you swim? Lol) Better battery for the A54, if you can live with that laggy and stuttery performance in the first place. My Poco F5 still lasts very long time, long enough that I don't need to power up immediately from time to time, and the performance is extremely satisfying because it's super smooth, speedy, powerful, and efficient. Better software is arguable because it is a preference. You don't like MIUI, that's fine. But I definitely don't like the very stuttery and laggy software that the A54 has, so I'm attributing it to the OneUI software that it runs, and will signifiy to me that the OneUI is objectively worse than MIUI in terms of optimization. 4 or 5 years of updates is meaningless if you can't even make it past 2 years of a very laggy and stuttery performance. You want the A54 to receive Android 18, but it's already struggling to run smoothly in Android 14?? Yes, not everyone buys a phone for gaming. But not being a gamer doesn't mean those stutters and lags in basic apps are okay, okay? Try harder to justify that ridiculously-priced and glorified budget phone. I'm not saying that the Poco F5 is perfect in any way, but there are clearly better options for the same price of the A54, and the F5 is just one of them, if not the number one reason why.
Its just like, samsung is slower coz he's not in a hurry and will last for more than 10years or more even its RAM and ROM are in 5% left due to heavy usage😂. Proud User here!
@ShaferHart It is. Videos shutter in TH-cam and some lags in switching applications. This is supposed to be a flagship device but it seems like a low end phone. Exynos 2200 is the worst chip I ever had
at least you should have compared it with a 8Gb model, you cant open asphalt and cod at the same time and expect it to not reload on 6gb of ram, I am pretty sure it wont reload if you opened all the other apps at the same time without opening these two games, I still don't know how apple does it with the IOS
That means, for the same price, Poco gives us 12GB RAM while Samsung could only offer half as much. Yeah sure, RAM isn't everything, but that's clearly evident here with the A54 being too choppy and laggy for way too much for something that costs this much in 2023, when even mid-rangers from 2 years ago of the same price range were already performing silky-smooth.
@@troy5568 yeah i like xiaomi/poco for that but Samsung in this price range doesn’t focus on performance but on other aspect like camera and a clean design, they use performance to make a difference between their mid-phones and their high-end ones
The screen looks a lot brighter on the poco f5 in this video, the A54 looks a little washed out in comparison. I was torn between these but seeing the performance on the F5 compared to the a54 it’s a no brainier
It's not all about the speed what about the camera, ui and software updates? but yes it's a speed comparison. It still bothered me why poco f5 series has low cost also I heard that they used Chinese oled and not sony sensor but in performance it's flagship grade.
You're right, but they're not aimed at the same audience, plus the POCO installing a GCAM solves the problem. Regarding the MIUI software, it is not the best option, but the bootloader is unlocked and you can opt for more optimized AOSP ROMs with fewer bugs than MIUI.
In screen fingerprint sensors are overrated imo. They are either too low or too high. I wish manufacturers would eother stick with the power button or bring back the rear sensor.
It's extremely overrated in that it adds cost to the device but brings nothing new or better than proven and tested and reliable physical fingerprint scanners, and also prohibiting you from installing tempered glass screen protector.
Lagging choppy slow ui, very lagging if u open multitask apps at the same time, 4 years update 😂, can't imagine next update android are getting heavier
Samsung does not support custom roms. Poco does and no matter what you say about the Samsung ecosystem, once you use custom roms you'd know for sure most stock roms out there are utter sewage with Samsung at the top.
im seeing people talking about the pocos motherboard... im about to buy this phone in 2 weeks for gaming but im kinda concerned now... can someone tell me why are people talking about it?? ik the performance is top tier but still
Only the Poco X3 was affected. Amongst other Poco devices that never had such problems, you definitely have nothing to worry about, for as long as you don't get that particular model that has that particular issue. And when it comes to Samsung, I had a FLAGSHIP Galaxy S20+ Snapdragon variant, and it had a green line on its screen, both on the original and the very expensive original replacement. All happened after a year to 2 of use. And mind you, that is a flagship phone. How much worse do you think Samsung would be with mid-rangers in terms of quality control?
El Samsung no tiene ningún retraso lo que lo estan comparando con un chip superior,va muy fluido también,y tiene mejor pantalla y en cámara lo aplasta,ademas de mucho mejor sistema operativo y con mas soporte de actualizaciones y menos bugs,para la mayoría de usuarios va a ser mejor el Samsung,solo los gamers preferiran el Poco F5.
@@ariefhidayat2157 now I want to ask you, is your cellphone capable of running genshin on high graphics and getting 30-40 FPS like my Galaxy S10+? 😁 just asking
That's right because 1380 is so outdated (even if it's only 1 month old) that it's even weaker than SD 778G and that's a midrange chipset from exactly 2 years ago.
I have used xiaomi redmi note 10 pro,xiaomi mi 10t.. from my experience xiaomi is not a reliable in their software experience.. buggy..no changes since miui 12-14.. now i just change my mind..i choose samsung..and i am not regretting my choice..
I used the redmi note 10 pro, hated that phone. Now currently using the redmi note 12 pro 5G and I love it. Redmi and poco have definitely gotten better and more reliable over the years.
I only like 2 things about the poco f5 - the processor is fast and powerful enough another is the power button fingerprint reader that is super fast too it's definitely way faster than my S23 ultra. I REALLY HATE THE SOFTWARE PART BY XIAOMI REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE IT POORLY DONE
Both r android. What experience did have different in Samsung, despite overheating and draining on idle. Just curious, cuz that's the experience I had with Samsung
It's actually opposite my experience. with samsung s8 n s9+, I had screen problems both phones (black screen of death) n never came back to life, I'm using xiaomi redmi 9t and I like the experience, even though it's an entry level. Sometimes I think people like a product just because of the brand
I only prefer OneUI because I've used a flagship Galaxy phone, which is not fair and comparable to the MIUI software of a mid-range Xiaomi phone. But in terms of quality control, my Galaxy S20+ Snapdragon had green line on the screen after 2 years on its original display, and then had it again a year later on the very expensive original replacement screen. Definitely no more Samsung again for me, as Samsung didn't even want to fix my phone for free, even though the problem is clearly not my fault, and it just randomly occurred out of nowhere as I am casually using my phone. I've never had hardware failure on any of my Xiaomi budget phones that I've had in the past, and I'm confident that my Poco F5 will be no different from that.

Fr.. do they even know the value of money? How can it be cheap in that ridiculous price for it's specs...
True. Samsung A series is expensive for its specs. LOL. I picked F3 over a53 for this reason.
A04 my sister has and it is a terrible phone it is frustrating and a lag machine.

I have a 3 year old xiaomi midrange phone and it is way better than that a54. I love my mi 10t, I plan to have it for one more year.
what disgusting lagging animations on Samsung. I sympathize with the owners of this smartphone
😬
Bought f5 at almost half price of a54 in sale.
I have the S22+ Exynos version, and I know this will be my last Exynos device.
Is it really that bad?
@ShaferHart It is. Videos shutter in TH-cam and some lags in switching applications. This is supposed to be a flagship device but it seems like a low end phone. Exynos 2200 is the worst chip I ever had
at least you should have compared it with a 8Gb model, you cant open asphalt and cod at the same time and expect it to not reload on 6gb of ram, I am pretty sure it wont reload if you opened all the other apps at the same time without opening these two games, I still don't know how apple does it with the IOS
That means, for the same price, Poco gives us 12GB RAM while Samsung could only offer half as much. Yeah sure, RAM isn't everything, but that's clearly evident here with the A54 being too choppy and laggy for way too much for something that costs this much in 2023, when even mid-rangers from 2 years ago of the same price range were already performing silky-smooth.
@@troy5568 yeah i like xiaomi/poco for that but Samsung in this price range doesn’t focus on performance but on other aspect like camera and a clean design, they use performance to make a difference between their mid-phones and their high-end ones
I look at the comments and people think that these interface crashes are only in the a series. You're wrong, it's the same in the s series.
Reading comments, it seems poco is winning
The screen looks a lot brighter on the poco f5 in this video, the A54 looks a little washed out in comparison. I was torn between these but seeing the performance on the F5 compared to the a54 it’s a no brainier
It's not all about the speed what about the camera, ui and software updates? but yes it's a speed comparison. It still bothered me why poco f5 series has low cost also I heard that they used Chinese oled and not sony sensor but in performance it's flagship grade.
You're right, but they're not aimed at the same audience, plus the POCO installing a GCAM solves the problem. Regarding the MIUI software, it is not the best option, but the bootloader is unlocked and you can opt for more optimized AOSP ROMs with fewer bugs than MIUI.
luckily enough there's hyperOs
great explanation- samsung needs to put faster cpu in this era of great smartphones, they living in 2016
Great video Nick 👍🏻
poco phone f5 setanding iphone. mantap 👍
my Snapdragon 680 is more powerful than this in real life performance 😂😂
In screen fingerprint sensors are overrated imo. They are either too low or too high. I wish manufacturers would eother stick with the power button or bring back the rear sensor.
It's extremely overrated in that it adds cost to the device but brings nothing new or better than proven and tested and reliable physical fingerprint scanners, and also prohibiting you from installing tempered glass screen protector.
watching from my new Galaxy A54 5G
Brh u playing c ops?
Samsung phones are lagging & have serious battery issues, i not going to buy samsung phones anymore
Its not only the speed of the smartphone, its also the overall experience with the ui
Ok experience with lag UI and overheating issue on samsung
Yeah and samsung will lag when doing basic tasks but will get 20 thousand years of updates
I enjoy miui better than oneui. Plus the only brand that allows users to UBL & root without voiding warranty. 15-24 months warranty period.
Lagging choppy slow ui, very lagging if u open multitask apps at the same time, 4 years update 😂, can't imagine next update android are getting heavier
Speed is a part of the UI experience, yes but for many people speed is a HUGE part of it.
Poco F5 is magnifique.
The intro alone is enough to stop any comparisons to follow 🤣
Samsung does not support custom roms. Poco does and no matter what you say about the Samsung ecosystem, once you use custom roms you'd know for sure most stock roms out there are utter sewage with Samsung at the top.
Try Xiaomi eu rom mate😊
And the new redmi k70 with 8 gen 2 has the same price as a54 😂 samsung a series is dead
Link to the poco f5 wallpaper?
im seeing people talking about the pocos motherboard... im about to buy this phone in 2 weeks for gaming but im kinda concerned now... can someone tell me why are people talking about it?? ik the performance is top tier but still
The motherboard problem was an issue with Poco X3 models in India, you can look it up.
No issue in Poco F5
Motherboard issue was only with trash Poco X3 pro mass produced it's CPU was not soldered properly
Only the Poco X3 was affected. Amongst other Poco devices that never had such problems, you definitely have nothing to worry about, for as long as you don't get that particular model that has that particular issue.
And when it comes to Samsung, I had a FLAGSHIP Galaxy S20+ Snapdragon variant, and it had a green line on its screen, both on the original and the very expensive original replacement. All happened after a year to 2 of use. And mind you, that is a flagship phone. How much worse do you think Samsung would be with mid-rangers in terms of quality control?
Only X3 pro
Samsung doesn't stand a chance in term of performance
8gen2 in s23 is the best combo with camera
Samsung gonna put 7+ gen 2 when Poco get 7+ultra gen 9
El Samsung no tiene ningún retraso lo que lo estan comparando con un chip superior,va muy fluido también,y tiene mejor pantalla y en cámara lo aplasta,ademas de mucho mejor sistema operativo y con mas soporte de actualizaciones y menos bugs,para la mayoría de usuarios va a ser mejor el Samsung,solo los gamers preferiran el Poco F5.
it will lag and can't be long term of usage
@@ariefhidayat2157 nice joke,still using S10+ with exynos 9825 and i have no problem,still running genshin at 41-38 fps in High grapich
@@hanszeofficier4130 that's awful fps
@@ariefhidayat2157 now I want to ask you, is your cellphone capable of running genshin on high graphics and getting 30-40 FPS like my Galaxy S10+? 😁 just asking
@@hanszeofficier4130 of course my soc is 7 + gen 2 it run smoothly 60 fps at max setting
samsung for camera
poco f5 for performance and display and everything better but bad camera
Still have poco f3 nice device from Xiaomi
Could you compare the s 23 to the Poco f 5 please
f5 is far far better
Performance of Snapdragon gen 2 is best
Exynos 1380 and snapdragon 7 gen plus 2 not comparable✅️✅️
That's right because 1380 is so outdated (even if it's only 1 month old) that it's even weaker than SD 778G and that's a midrange chipset from exactly 2 years ago.
but the price is comparable
Well Samsung as got to keep their shareholders happy
I have used xiaomi redmi note 10 pro,xiaomi mi 10t..
from my experience xiaomi is not a reliable in their software experience..
buggy..no changes since miui 12-14..
now i just change my mind..i choose samsung..and i am not regretting my choice..
No changes from miui 12-14? BIG LIE.
I used the redmi note 10 pro, hated that phone. Now currently using the redmi note 12 pro 5G and I love it. Redmi and poco have definitely gotten better and more reliable over the years.
Use flagship Xiaomi phones then go judge their software i dare you both
Nick hellow
Ca you do a speed test between po o f5 and poco f3 to see the speed difference please
Hello UZBEKISTAN 🇺🇿
Xiaomi with Snapdragon❤❤...
I only like 2 things about the poco f5 - the processor is fast and powerful enough another is the power button fingerprint reader that is super fast too it's definitely way faster than my S23 ultra. I REALLY HATE THE SOFTWARE PART BY XIAOMI REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE IT POORLY DONE
Then use custom roms
Poco F5 win‼️
It's all down to your preference, I've used xiaomi phones in the past and I did not like the experience. Samsung on the other hand I preferred it
Both r android. What experience did have different in Samsung, despite overheating and draining on idle. Just curious, cuz that's the experience I had with Samsung
It's actually opposite my experience. with samsung s8 n s9+, I had screen problems both phones (black screen of death) n never came back to life, I'm using xiaomi redmi 9t and I like the experience, even though it's an entry level.
Sometimes I think people like a product just because of the brand
I only prefer OneUI because I've used a flagship Galaxy phone, which is not fair and comparable to the MIUI software of a mid-range Xiaomi phone. But in terms of quality control, my Galaxy S20+ Snapdragon had green line on the screen after 2 years on its original display, and then had it again a year later on the very expensive original replacement screen. Definitely no more Samsung again for me, as Samsung didn't even want to fix my phone for free, even though the problem is clearly not my fault, and it just randomly occurred out of nowhere as I am casually using my phone.
I've never had hardware failure on any of my Xiaomi budget phones that I've had in the past, and I'm confident that my Poco F5 will be no different from that.
Samsung is charging almost 500 percent of the cost incurred for this choppy phone !
