I have my a52s for 6 7 months now and its strange u say its laggy. I keep my phone clean and never had a lag since day one. I searched alot for the perfect phone for me and this was it. I had a poco x3 nfc before this and i can tell u that was a buggy phone.
Its been almost 10 years i track mobile phone industry and gsmarena. I consider myself a professional in recommending phones. And one thing that i know for sure from all these years of checking phone oriented websites and real life use, in android world , a flagship chipset is overkill for 98% of people. Not only a flagship chipset is power hungry, but 98% dont even use close to full potential of that chipset. And i consider the high mid level chipsets to be the best. They go ez on ur battery while satisfying for games or whatever.
A funny side story : My a52s handles cod mobile on max setting like a champ while my friend 12pro max gets hot and lowers brightness to an unplayable level (daytime).
Why the f is that??

Samsung has gone a long way in the software department with good updates. I am still waiting for Android 12 on my otherwise prettt good Oneplus Nord 2..

On top of that screen is too sensitive to touch, misregisters touches consistently and it's a nightmare to use a keyboard on it. If this is supposed to be the best Samsung mid range phone I'm truly sorry for anyone who bought even cheaper models from samsung.
Oneui 4 made the animations fancier but they are even slower and more sluggish than they were back in oneui 3.x, what is samsung thinking!?!?

Nick Tegrataker, 26 Jun 2022I would say this is still the best midranger that has come ... moreI'd like to add that this is DESPITE A52s' lacklustre real-life performance (I imagine this issue is widespread, since I've seen two of my acquaintances buying S20 FE, essentially a higher-spec'd version of A52s, then later complaining about constant lags and stutter).
A52s is essentially hardware side almost perfectly done right for a midranger, but with software dragging it down so much so that it lost its chance to become THE best one on the market.. though I would say it's still a great product given the current price.

I would say this is still the best midranger that has come out of Samsung, and one of the best in the entire smartphone market. Still an amazing value, packed with features some of which are not included in the newer A53 nor the flagship S22 series, not to mention Samsung's great update policy for the A series which will keep this thing alive for a few more years.

I've tried my friend's A52s and can't help to think that IF they released a down-sized version last year. It would be really nice if they manage to shrink A52s to Pixel 5's size. Google managed to contain a 4000mah battery in a small phone just weighs 151g but they stuck to 765G, it would be really nice to have a mini 778G phone made by Samsung.

One UI make Snapdragon 778 feels like redmi with miui and Snapdragon 720/730/732. So in the end, one ui makes it phone slower than expected
