It's display is a deal breaker for me it has a water drop notch but worst part is that chin mate it looks so bad my 2019 Huawei p smart has a smaller one.

        GorujoCY, 19 Aug 2022How come, I would see uninitiative consumers buying the A53... moreThey don't buy it because it's significantly more expensive, but it's worse. People who do end up buying it I just send them back from my store so they can switch them to the A52s. Most people don't know that it doesn't come with a charger and it doesn't have a headphone jack, neither Samsung stores nor other retailers talk about these, so I'm the first to tell 'em.

          Yext, 18 Aug 2022It's still available where I live, 'cause most pe... moreHow come, I would see uninitiative consumers buying the A53 over the A52s (because initially they would think "oh A52 < A53") that's surprising.

          Is anyone barely buying them because of the lack of charger in the box that Samsung started doing or some of the tiny downgradez that Samsung did? (Like chipset iirc), 2 of my Local store seem to have the A52s with one of them having them out of stock which is interesting, some countries might be pushing to sell the A53 than the A52s unless the demand happens the same...

              [deleted post]I dont know the 5 digits of price currency location that can also be some region based price. I go by Euro as i am European. Also the point was to get some phone under that price point and not what is better. If you talk about what be better to buy then i would go with Poco F3 that is also cheaper then Poco x4 pro and is better in every way. If there would be anywhere to buy poco x3 pro then that be also better as last time when i saw it in sale it cost 230 euro and was with sd860

                This phone will be more than good enough for the vast majority.

                    Yext, 18 Aug 2022Realme 9 Pro is almost twice the price of this.Realme 9 pro costs rs 18999 but with offers it is available for 16999. So realme 9i 5g pricing in India is just a sick joke.

                      It really is a reasonable phone for someone who wants to make calls, use social apps & just have some casual gaming paired with surfing & streaming. The looks are much clean and better than all competitors. The price is good considering if you live outside India.

It just wasn't a good example, 'cause it's quite clear that the A53 came after the A52s which was the successor of the A52 thus the A53 is the successor of the A52s.
