Over the years, the mid-range market has become one of the most important — if not THE most important — segments as overall smartphone shipments continue to shrink year over year. More people are buying mid-range phones than ever, proven by Counterpoint Research as the reason Samsung is the #1 smartphone vendor in the world, and there's a good reason for this.
Modern mid-range smartphones really are great. Case in point, the Samsung Galaxy A54 5G looks and feels (mostly) like there were no real compromises to achieve the $450 price tag. That makes it roughly half the cost of most of the best Android phones yet, with a few exceptions, you wouldn't know it in daily use.
