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.

960, 16 Apr 2022A52s 5G replaced the A52 5G. Therefore it logically follows... moreActually both may not be wrong. 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.)

Anonymous, 16 Apr 2022A53s is the successor of A52s, not of A52.
iPhone se 202... moreA52s 5G replaced the A52 5G. Therefore it logically follows that A53 5G must replace A52s 5G.
Only people who can think will understand this.

A53s is the successor of A52s, not of A52.
iPhone se 2022 is the successor of iphone se 2020, not of iphone 12 or 13.
Only smart people understand this little facts.

Pumpino, 14 Apr 2022We don't know if there are plans to introduce an A53s.... moreA52s was introduced because a52 was so weak it got trashed by mi 11lite. A52s is basically what a52 should have been.

How can a downgraded newer version of a phone score 4 stars? Do any phones ever get sub 3 stars?

OP said he had the exynos version so for exam... more... so we all (including reviewer) agree A53 should be a bit better and it would be okay. Keeping jack and equally or just slightly better (compared to 778) performing chip would be enough. (I thought it'd be like this too, even thought never thought of waiting for it)
Now it just is what it is. Čase closed.

OP said he had the exynos version so for example the a52s has a better cpugpu combo overall.
Second, camera is on par minus the telephoto.
Third, OP stated the software update policy is important so that's hands down the a52s route as s10 got it's last update in android 12.
So I guess OP expected a slightly better device in the a53 than a52s or at least on par.
We all know that sans the software support the a52s is superios to the a53 so....

What some call apologizing I call being realistic. Exynos was expected, wasn't it?? Made up theories about successors and upgrades are just theories. What the heck were you expecting, a flagship chip? (this reminds Redmi Note fans) If they release a good model, people go expect even more in next model or call it a mistake, or write long posts about it. Instead of simply buying the good one. (that's what I did, so I'm checkin now) Well, A53 - SoC is midrange relevant and as the new model it gets long SW support (here we go, an upgrade). The rest is up to potential buyer/s ... Agree (as mentioned below) review managed to stay balanced.

I honestly feel that for 400$ or € a phone should supply a smooth user experience all around.
Sadly, this is not the case.

Rocky, 15 Apr 2022Nah. That's not how this place works. These people are... moreNot true.
I really waited for this device, coming from s10 I saw the a52s as a great value and jack of all trades and was really curious for the a53 because of the software support policy.
While many reviews smacked the a53 on its head mainly due to the cpu I bided my time waiting for this review on gsmarena hoping the will say something to redeem the device and motivate me to go get it.
I can honestly say it's a great disappointment...
If they only went with a better cpu and perhaps keep the headphones jack I believe it would've mattered to many potentials clients.
Many ppl don't get how relatively bad exynos chipsets are. I can attest from my s10 helming the 9820 exynos.... it's really...lame.
