In Portugal is 399€ 5g version

    Anonymous, 14 Aug 2021are u kidding! this is 2021 a52 /a72 version not 2019 a50/... moreThe A50 FPS was truly awful but it seems to have come a long way from its terrible beginning. My A50 FPS is allot more accurate and slightly faster now but deffo trash compared to my s10 and note 20u fps.

      Anonymous, 14 Aug 2021This is true and should be highlighted, as some users may f... moreI think it is a non-issue for A52. The technology has been refined. Feel free to post any links of people complaining about the sensor on A52. I didn't find any.

        Vivo still the best for hi res quad bayers. I would lock down this mode if I made such bad processing, what's the point of getting ridiculed.
        I would also exchange 5mp macro and 5mp depth for 10mp IR camera.

          Gandalfdenvite, 14 Aug 2021If it did not have an OLED screen then I would buy it, but ... moreYep, I always do hard pass on all OLEDs without DC dimming as default.

Most of the people around me have side FP scanners and none of their frames broken, most of them even mount their phone on their MTB handlebars during our mountain biking and none of those phones have frame-related issue. On the other hand, UD FP scanners has lots of failure points i.e. tempered glass issue, relatively higher failure rates (most implementations were just the shitty optical) and slow (relative to capacitive side fp scanners), these issues aren't even intentional nor caused by stress tests, just a normal smartphone use.

              Keep living in your bubble where you think Apple is no.1 when clearly Apple has been no.2 or no.3 most of the time

                      If it did not have an OLED screen then I would buy it, but it has an OLED screen that cause headache... because it use PWM, screen flickering at low frequency, to reduce screen brightness!

I got this for my wife and it works much, much better than the scanner on my S21 Ultra. So if this is the only reason for you not to buy the phone, think again because it is a non-issue due to the different type of scanner utilised on the A52 5G, like most of the "A" series phones.

                          This can be clearly seen in the YouTube bend test for phones

                            I was going to buy it until I saw that it has the under display fingerprint reader. Not interested in having to experience this nightmare ever again. I know a ton of people who refuse to buy Samsung phones now because of the horrible implementation of this half-baked technology. What's wrong with having a side fingerprint reader?

                                There are so many Android phone manufacturers out there and yet still cannot detrone Apple.

                                Common sense yo. Get some.
