Pros & Cons
Pros
The touch screen seems inconsistent in some apps ( varying sensitivity) but it's probably an adjustable setting. The speakerphone is not very loud, but it gets the job done. The only drawback is the battery isn't as good as my moto power.
Everything seems faster and crisper. If i am not mistaking they give 5 years of updates. No lagging. Using an ear bud, or going into another room, solves that.
The camera is powerful and picks up details i'm not sure i even want it to. Biometric sensor works well.
Notice the clarity, fine detail, vividness and crispness of these images. The a54 photo is crisp and retains some fine details here which is impressive.
Cons
The 5g capability and the battery performance is just *. Many issues with google maps. Only positive is it has ok battery life.
Camera is painfully slow. The speed is horrendous.
End a call by tapping and swiping to end a call. There doesn't seem to be a way to undo the useless fingerprint recognition set-up. I find they do not respond to my finger swipes, which makes them virtually useless for me.
Highlights
Quality
These are near-flagship quality images for a fraction of the price.
Huge difference in speed and display quality.
After two years i started having trouble with the phone not connecting to my service provider.
The charging cord that comes with the phone is a double ended usb-c type, there isn't a usb 3 or even 2 end to use when charging.
Price
This is a very good phone and at a excellent price.
Shipping
The only negative thing i can say is it was in a much bigger box with no packing material so it could bang around during shippi... Read More
Packaging/appearance
It came in the manufacturer's packaging (box) and i couldn't find a single mark on the phone.
Competitiveness
32mp on a selfie camera in general is new to me and very impressive.
It even had the clear removeable plastic protection tape that is put on to ptotect the edges of the phone by the manufacturer.
Even though both phones are android, i had a long 3-week learning curve.
