SAMSUNG Galaxy A54 5G | 128GB | 6.4” Fluid Display Screen | Hi Res Camera | 5,000 mAH huge Battery| US Version | 2023 Model | Unlocked Android Smartphone | Awesome Black (Renewed)

I bought this for my nephew as a college graduation gift. He chose it because it can be used with a Sim card for extra storage. The first one we ordered came locked but we had no trouble returning it and getting a second one that was in perfect condition and was unlocked. Shipping was quick and overall I am happy with the purchase. It's been a month since my nephew has started using it and he says it is the best phone he has ever owned.

Loving this phone! I needed expandable storage, got a 1T GB SD card to go with it. Plus it has a good amount of internal storage to begin with. I like the speaker quality and the water resistance.

Nothing but regret over this purchase. I've had the phone for 12 days. It arrived in a basic box with a charger and cable, but no tool for opening the SIM card slot. Initially, the phone powered up okay, and I was able to do smart switch fine and reconnect all of my things. But I noticed that the charging cable wasn't saying securely in the phone. Cables that works perfectly fine with my old phone, we're just slipping out of this.I know the charging port could just be dirty, so I did take a look at that and try to clean it out as best as I could, although obvious dust and dirt that was built up in the charging port from day one should have been a red flag. and that helped a little bit, but it still didn't have the same hold that my old phone did.Next up were the restarts. Sometimes the phone will just randomly restart on its own, out of nowhere, with decent battery life. It happened about four times in the space of the 12 days I've had the phone.A couple of times, the phone would sketch out, and either the screen or the apps would become unresponsive to my touch, which force me to have to remove the phone.The final straw, and the reason I have just initiated a return on this thing is because today, after I left the house for work I noticed the display was very dark - - I know it was dark, because I had said the display that way, but I wasn't able to pull the menu down to adjust the brightness at all. I thought, no big deal I'll just reboot it again (although to be Frank, 12 days in, this is already a lot). I could bring up the menu for powering off the phone and rebooting, but nothing would happen when I touch the buttons. I had to basically press down or hold the button really hard to get it to respond, and eventually it did, but even that some 5 minutes. Then when the phone turns back on, I couldn't unlock it. It would recognize the initial swipe to allow me to put my password in, but then wouldn't respond to any touches. That's the state it's in right now. I'm hoping that I'll be able to still get my information off of it or wipe it before I send it back because this is absolutely ridiculous.This is my first time purchasing a refurbished phone, and I can tell you that it's definitely going to be my last. It's not worth the gamble.

I was sent a Samsung Model SM-A546U. Everything arrived in good nick. I've had this up and running for a few days now. I upgraded from an A12 that was really slow. This is a major improvement. I have Verizon as a service provider, and all I've done so far is install the Verizon SIM. The setup was a bit strange. It told me I didn't have an AT&T SIM, but I just kept going. It flashes the AT&T logo when it cold boots, but aside from the AT&T apps that I don't seem to be able to remove, it functions flawlessly. It bugged me constantly for a software update, but I suspect it was from AT&T because I get an error message saying the update was interrupted and to try again in 24 hours. I shut off the notification because it simply kept repeating the error message. I'm not sure how to remedy that. I used Samsung Smart Switch to load the stuff from the old phone. I also pulled the micro SD from the old A12 and installed it in the A54. The difference between the two was the placement of the SIM and SD card. Side by side in the A12, and opposite sides for the A54. All in all, I'm pleased with the purchase except for the software update thing.

Came good as new. I was skeptical at first, but so worth it.

Returned but was good

I've been wanting to upgrade from an inexpensive and slow 4G Motorola phone with 32GB to something 5G, with 128GB, from a name brand, and much faster. I'd narrowed down my search to a Pixel 6a/7a or this Samsung A54. This A54 model seemed like it was better quality and with fewer complaints, so the next task was finding something I could afford. Which meant shopping for a refurbished phone.Of course, I was leery about buying a used phone, and whether it would be scratched up, locked, or some other problem might make me regret buying a refurbished product. I was also worried that the phone I received would not run on Visible, a Verizon subsidiary, since many A54s phones seem to be GMA and only run on T-Mobile/AT&T. This particular phone from this seller was one of the lower-priced refurbs -- about half the cost of a new Samsung A54, and the seller had good customer reviews, so I decided to take a chance and order it.Now that I've activated this phone and set it up to my liking, I can say that I'm thrilled with the purchase. The phone arrived fully functional, just 48 hours after I ordered it. It was unlocked as promised, and I had no trouble activating it on Visible. The condition of the phone is pristine--not a single scratch or ding. It came in a white, Amazon Renewed box, as expected, and a USB cable and charger were included. I am 100% satisfied with this purchase so far, and look forward to using my new and much faster 5G Samsung phone!

The media could not be loaded. The Phone is in Excellent condition as it stated and Beautiful but the seller's caption is deceiving and NOT unlocked available to All carriers! It's Metro PCS&I have Boost Mobile! My sim card doesn't and WON'T work because the network carrier already installed on it. I turned the phone on and immediately disappointed when I saw Metro PCS. I sent it back the next day. They need to put in the description "Unlocked Samsung Galaxy A54 Metro PCS carrier only" because it's definitely not available to my nor all carriers.
