You won't see this kind of phone from Samsung again. For the price point this phone will be as legendary as the F1. It's so good it's affecting sales of the A53, S21fe, and the S22. Why buy any of those phones when this is available. Especially when, ever since this phone came out, Samsung has dropped the headphone jack and the SD card from all its phones. Great cameras, best in class display, solid SD778. I bought an aftermarket 25 watt charger for $8 that gives me decent charging speed. A promised 4 years of updates, damn! Like I said, it's too good. Samsung won't make this mistake again

I've had this phone for about 4 months and its been a pleasure to use... As I've had a Xiaomi for the last 2 years. It does everything I need it to do. I do wish the battery was bigger but I do get through a day without having to charge until bedtime. Battery saver is always on and I never use the 120hz. The 120hz is a meme on phones... Unless it can turn down to 1hz it's not worth it as it slurps the battery.

This review is odd, and so much more negatively bias than the initial a52s review... photos are pretty great to me, my ui isn't laggy at all (had the phone maybe 8 weeks and if anything am constantly reminded how smooth the phones user interface works especially for the price- and this is coming from an iPhone 11) speakers are great and plenty loud, never have them close to 100% volume, again coming from an iPhone 11.
Unless the a52s goes downhill quick, I don't get where this review is coming from, especially since gsma just named it the best premium mid ranger... again, odd..

I don't understand why gsmarena teem says one more time that the main camera is decent. This camera is class leading gentlemen! It's on par with s20 fe's main camera and even better in some cases. I made a comparison with my friend's iPhone 11 and a52s was the clear winner. It's the best in the midrange category.

Without any doubt. A52s as I am using it is a complete phone. If you want to buy go for it . But don't put in water as it has water resistant but not waterproof.

However Z5 uses LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage compared to A52s LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.1 storage. Thermal management is also far better on Z5.

I have just bought A52s and despite the claims mine arrived with 15W charger in Czech Republic... Probably another regional improvement.

If this review is correct, then I'm really disappointed that Samsung isn't able to keep the A52s smooth. The hardware is strong, so there is absolutely no excuse for this phone being laggy at any moment.

77, 28 Jun 2022Helio CPU, who even buys that garbage phones with that SOC ? Mind your words mate, not everyone knows a lot about a smartphone or else why not everyone just go for either Xiaomi or Realme since both of them offer high value for money.
