For years, Apple and Samsung have engaged in fierce competition, each vying for the prestigious title of the ultimate smartphone. As time passes and technology advances, both companies have dedicated themselves to relentless innovation, tirelessly striving to enhance their smartphones in every aspect imaginable, including speed, functionality and user experience.
Two recent models from each company, the Samsung Galaxy A54, and the iPhone SE, have become very popular picks, especially for those who are on a tight budget. What makes these phones so great is that they have many of the features that any other Samsung or Apple smartphone might have, but they're significantly cheaper.
Most smartphones from the two companies today, especially the newer models, will sell for around $800. These two models, however, fall within the $375-$450 range. If you're someone who is on a tight budget, and you still need a smartphone (as we all do nowadays), these two are great options to consider.

Who wins overall?
Both phones are great, and you can get fantastic performance without breaking the bank no matter which phone you end up choosing. However, the Samsung Galaxy A54 is the winner here. It's more affordable, takes higher-quality photos and videos, and charges faster, making it an excellent choice for those who want a smartphone and also want to save a good amount of money. However, even with this range of impressive features, let's be honest, Apple customers are likely to stay loyal to the brand, no matter what comes along, due to their strong brand loyalty and preference for the Apple ecosystem.
