Little disappointed that the battery health is basically the same as the A52s, particularly with the web browsing rate. 14+ is what's ideal really

    Ik, 11 Apr 2022I wish I could get this phoneYou can buy it easily online or in your nearest mobile phone store. Unless you have money troubles, in that case contact your close ones. If that phone is not available in your home country yet then try to buy it abroad

        Anonymous, 11 Apr 2022That sounds cool. Can the batteries be replaced by the user... moreYou can't replace it yourself. But no worries. They are usually very durable. Can last pretty long. Just keep them in their case. And charge them once in a while. Even ones without noise canceling already are isolating noise. So you listen to music even in bus. Questions if any ask me.

          Princecharming, 04 Apr 2022It's funny how A52s users keep trying to pat themselve... moreHere are my takes.

          "-A53's camera TOTALLY blows A52s out of the water, video and pics seem a world apart."

          Here is my take. Exynos pictures have way too much processing and smearing, Qualcomm pictures have too much film grain and the smoothing applied to it makes the image look very watered out.

          "-The virtual RAM of 6GB on the A53 can't be done on A52s, only 4GB."

          This is such a complete and utterly useless feature, that I cannot even begin to describe how much I hate it. I can't even disable this feature normally. This forum goes over many reasons why virtual ram can make things worse https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-no-root-complete-samsung-oneui-optimization.4376755/
          * TLDR: It is believed to be faster to have less virtual memory than more. There should also be ways to lower it or increase it in Android 11 using ADB commands, but I never did it, so I don't know for sure.

          "-The Exynos 1280 chip on the A53 beat the SD778 COMPLETELY in battery performance."

          Source? I doubt that since the SD778 is made using TSMC. 6nm and 5nm mean different things between Samsung and TSMC and shouldn't be used as a defining scale of how efficient a SOC is.

          "-A53 has FOUR years software update and A52s has just two."

          Given how much features from OneUI have been removed and how I despise Android 12 from Material You, elastic overscroll, curved everything, worse font position decisions, and just a more jank and buggy user interface that makes the phone look more like a toy than a tool, I am not hopeful for anything worth looking forward to in the future. I would rather just flash an Android 11 rom onto it with the latest security updates. Also, the Galaxy A52s should get up to Android 14.

                        Too funny they are following suit with removing chargers, headphones and other features from phones. Right time for new players to swoop in and clear the trash.

                                  Just noticed that this A53 emits twice the radiation that A52s emits.

                                  Add to that the significantly worse processor, and removal of 3.5mm headphone jack (with absolutely no upgrades over the A52s) and its clear that the new phone is worse at a higher price.

                                  Samsung is just disrespecting the consumers at this point.

                                    Kiwi, 26 Mar 2022How? They seem to be same. Yes they do, but the screen to body ratio of samsung a53 is slightly bigger.
