    Not only the M53's specs are worse than M52, the design also looks kinda cheap

      You do know that fast charging does not work on phones from different brand ?
      Xiaomi 33w won't fast charge samsung

      Chargers are important and if you want to save environment then get rid of the box, no one needs that

        And when they are gone, I'm going to buy two or three new chargers, which would last me for a decade again, instead of getting a new one with every new phone. The same with cheap and useless headphones. I would not even need a charging cable, since I have many of them at home (and of better quality than manufacturers usually supply with phones).

                    Looking at this phone, which was made just to keep a one-year scheme of introducing new models, it seems to me that a two-year cycle would be much better... Just like in the ancient times of mobile phones.

                          I guess smartphone market has been boring for quite some time. Most exitement we can get is when somebody launches an Android phone that's smaller than TV but that doesn't happen very often...

                            come on samsung, why are you omitting the brick?? this is stupid and greedy. also this should have headphones bundled in or else buying a 3rd party accessory can break easily if everyone buys a cheap one

                                      A very good review. Thank you for calling out stuff like how the previous models are simply better than this year's model. This galaxy is definitely something I won't recommend to anyone regardless of the software support (Which anyways is always meh worthy on Android phones. Lots of reports of how software updates cause software and hardware issues, even the S20 series had display issues after updates)

                                      Smartphones should be getting better each year but in Samsung's case, each consecutive year they try and see how much less they can offer for good money.

                                        >The M51 was the last one to have a headphone jack and the M53, like the M52 before it, omits this legacy form of connectivity.

                                        Nope. Hard disagree. The 3.5mm Headphone Jack isn't a "legacy" form of connectivity... That's what Apple and Samsung would want you to believe and that's what they're pushing hard to become a reality. Please stop accepting this. There's not even stereo speakers in the phone smh

                                        A mid range phone should be a practical phone. Not a phone for which you need to make additional purchases (usb-c to 3.5mm dongle, charging brick etc)
                                        A person with money to burn on those accesories would anyways buy a higher end phone. The target demographic for the midrange and the budget phone are people who can only spend so much...

                                        The priorities of Samsung are so far out from the actual ground reality... Do people even buy stuff without a charging brick in box and without a 3.5mm jack? Please tell me these units are flopping so Samsung learns the hard way. The recent report that they had a lot of stock just sitting was honestly good news so that they realise that they can't just keep removing stuff from the phone and sell you that.

                                        Samsung has historically always given much weaker hardware in comparison to the competition and then they take out stuff from the purchase to sell you separately. It's greedy, it's anti-consumer and frankly, I wish they have a hard fall so they learn that this is a mistake
