But again, both regular A5x 5G and A5xS 5G series has their own plus minuses.

If you are looking for newer phone design and cant wait to try newest Android OS/One UI, go buy regular A5x series.

If you are looking for better processor and dont mind with its older design, go buy A5xS series.

Samsung create these two series (A5x and A5xS) to accomodate two types of consumers, so people could choose which one is better for their need.

          Anonymous, 18 Apr 2022This phone is far better than its predessor A52 4G. A52 ... moreThe A52s also has 120Hz display. And you better tone down your excitement about the A53 getting 4 years OS updates. Exynos chipsets are notoriously poor in longevity and you can take reference from phones like the A51 that started to lag after OS update to Android 12 recently. It's still too early to know whether the A53 can retain performance after getting its 3rd and 4th OS update.

                  This phone is far better than its predessor A52 4G.

                  A52 = 3 years major OS upgrade
                  A53 = 4 years major OS upgrade (Android 16/One UI 8), new design, 120hz screen

                  A52s is also good, but its successor A53s 5G will come next August and has similar design as A53 5G.

                      Removing 3.5mm, charger, wifi 6, and probably couple other things just makes it a downgrade at this point. Sd Slot soon to follow as well more than likely.
                      They have to ruin everything it seems. Could have been a super value depending on where you get it. Like Walmart selling carrier phones $100-$400 cheaper than carrier prices! These are like $10 a month there.
                      Instead, companies are just ruining everything now a days. Phones, jobs, music, and much more.

                        Anonymous, 17 Apr 2022How is that thinking? That's just a naming convention ... moreIt's not about the naming convention per se, but more about addressing the commenters that insist A53 is not a successor of last year's A52s. They keep saying the at this point in time still imaginary A53s as the true successor of A52s.

                          960, 16 Apr 2022A52s 5G replaced the A52 5G. Therefore it logically follows... moreMost of those that insist A53 is not a successor of the A52s understand it, but they are just in denial mode because the A53 is objectively worse than the A52s.

                            Anonymous, 17 Apr 2022I'd rather get the A52s 5G or the S20 FEYou're right. I am using A52s and it is way better than A53.

                                  in my opinion, i have the chance to choose between A52S and A53, So I bought the A52S- good price with better performance due to my research, with better chip processor, Aux jack and lower price.
                                  But the differences that Samsung has stopped producing the A52S, and it's not available in many stores. But i had the chance to own one.
                                  I think the A52S is the best choice to take due to his powerful Snapdragon processor and better price.

                                    This phone is really a great successor of Galaxy A52. New design, better camera, 5 years software support. Good job and great work Samsung👍

                                    I believe Samsung will create another great phone like Galaxy A53s 5G as a successor of Galaxy A52s 5G.

                                    This is absolutely the second best midrange Android (1st Galaxy A73 5G) in the first half of 2022.

If they released regular model with Exynos and S with SD every year, then you could clearly wait for one of them as the succesor of preferred chip model ( I don't think they would). The thing is that logically and usually the new gen model has at least equal or faster chip than all of previous generation - thus being succesor n fact (if this is important to resolve for you guys). That's expectation. Since this isn't the case + jack's missing, it's first of all easy to understand people are disappointed, and it's also bit confusing. Even though chipset still suits midrange and other than that phone' isn't bad, with good software support to it. (Btw I've been to one shop yesterday and saw A53 though it was yet 'Demo' but also no A52 available there. OEM can do what he wants. So can do customer.)
