Speaking of power, the processor of the OPPO Reno 8 is a Mediatek Dimensity 1300 with 8 cores for task execution. The smartphone is driven by the Android 12 system, supported by ColorOS 12.1. On the GPU level, it is the Mali-G77 MC9 that provides the graphic needs of users. The package comes with 8GB of RAM with 128GB or 256GB storage. Unfortunately the internal space is not expandable with an SD card, as no slot has been provided for this purpose.
The chipset of the Galaxy A54 is an Exynos 1380 which is the latest find of Samsung. Indeed, the successor of the Exynos 1280 although powerful seems to be not up to the task according to nanoreview. On the other hand, the smartphone runs Android 13 as operating system, accompanied by One UI 5.1. The GPU as you might have guessed is from Mali and it is the Mali-G68 MP5. The storage configurations are: 128GB 6GB RAM, 128GB 8GB RAM, 256GB 6GB RAM, 256GB 8GB RAM.Which one offers more autonomy?

According to experts, we could have a battery life of a day and a few hours at most. Under the shell of the Galaxy A54 is hidden a 5000mAh battery capable of lasting for 48 hours. However, the wired fast charge here is only 25W for a full charge in over an hour.
Does the Galaxy A54 have a better camera than the OPPO Reno 8?

Then the ultra wide angle sensor for its part has 8MP, while the macro has only 2MP. A combo that does not leave indifferent, especially when you can make videos in 4k. A 32MP front camera has been embedded in the upper left corner of the screen.
The Galaxy A54 also features 3 cameras, presumably more powerful than those of the OPPO Reno 8. We're talking 50MP on the main sensor, 12MP for the ultra wide angle shooter and 5MP on the macro. Clearly, they offer better features with extra functions such as auto phase detection and optical stabilization. The front of the screen also has a 32MP front camera for selfie and video calling.Price and availability
