      a52s 5g better, way better processor, WiFi 6, has a headphone jack so you can charge your phone while listening to your music, hdr10+ support, micro sd card slot, while being cheaper.
      a53 5g also has the same chipset as the a33 while being more expensive , lol
      it kinda blows my mind that people are buying the a53 instead of the a52s, some say its not available on their region, well buy it in amazon or ebay 😂😂😂

    Seems like a fair review pointing out valid points. But OTOH, saying not to buy a midrange phone at a midrange price because it doesn't have high end phone features isn't exactly mind blowing -- there's a reason people will pay a big premium for high end phones, and companies KNOW this.

      I don't think anywhere people said its a bad device. The problem is its slower than the model it replaces with corners cut. No headphone jack, no charging brick, no WIFI 6 support, no FM radio and it has the slowest fast charging in that price category. The xiaomi note 11 pro cost 299 usd with basically the same specs but 67w fast charging.

    I have the A53 5G so I am fine with it. The phone being plastic doesn't matter to me since mine is in a full case. I knew what I was getting based on the price, I am fine with the features. I did not expect S22 high end features in a mid range phone. Don't care about Dex, don't need a 3.5 phone jack. Did not need a charger as I have many chargers. Don't really need wireless charging. Don't need an s pen so I am fine with the phone as is especially it's current price when compared to the top end phones.

      Same thoughts here. Plastic cases weigh less and there's no cables to break on wireless headphones. Much as I love wired headsets, I haven't used one in over 2 years. (You eventually get tired of repairing them lol.)
      Upgrading from a Pixel 3A and a LG G8, the most important aspects for me are: stereo speakers, bass, a brighter screen, better efficiency, and price, as I always buy my phones used.

    I was happy to see the 53g 5g has all the sensors and slow motion that my S9 has. But it appears that in SuperSlow, they removed the motion triggering for it. I do not see an option to use that anywhere. Also playback is 8 seconds instead of 14 like S9, but then there may be an overlooked setting for that I have not found yet.

    If you really want a headphone jack, look at the A52. It's nearly the same as the A53, but with a slightly lower capacity battery and a Qualcomm CPU (that performs almost identically to the Exynos in the A53). I think they used the extra space from the headphone jack to fit the larger battery. They used their own Exynos CPU to save money, but it seems to perform just the same.

    Thanks for this review video. We just purchased two of these phones and they are coming tomorrow. I didn't know that these did not have a headphone jack. I don't know why Samsung would not have one on this phone. I thought it was an "industry standard" on all ( or most) smartphones. Looks like we will need to order two adapters. (BTW - it doesn't come with a charger either.) We had to order those separately as well as two exterior cases for both phones. I'm surprised they included the battery.

      Sourcing a simple charger with 5V 2A spec only costed us less than US$1 back then. Before the pandemic, these could be found at retail outlets starting from $2 in many regions close to these manufacturers. They sometimes even came with micro-usb cables. I bought one charger at a random shop when traveling in that region, came with a lightning compatible cable, for about $4 in 2019. Also bought a quick charge charger & usb-c cable set for $7. You guessed it right, I forgot my charging cables again when packing for that trip. It was cheaper and easier to get a charger with cable set at some corner shops than buying the "original" cables from some authorized dealer shops. I can still remember we started hearing rumors Apple already started to exclude chargers in their next iphone products. And that really happened in 2020 if I memory serves me right.

    It is made out of Polycarbonate on the back and sides, PC is an extremely strong material. I use PC (Polycarbonate) tanks on my vape tanks because because they don't break as easy as glass tanks when dropped or even just tipped over. Also Dex Mode is exclusive to the flagship Samsung phones. I upgraded from a Galaxy A32 5g and when you switch the A53 to run on 6gigs of ram instead of the default 4gigs the experience is SO MUCH smoother. When you first get your A53 it will most likely be set a 60Hz screen refresh rate so you'll have to switch it manually to the 120Hz screen refresh rate. The screen is beautiful using a 6.5in Infinity-o AMOLED display with like 409ppi. The only phone better than this (in the US) at this price point is the Google Pixel 6a and that's just in terms of Google's Camera software, the samd Tensor chip that's in the Pixel 6 and 6 pro. The Chip in the A53 could have been better than The Samsung made Exynos 1280 SoC, some reviews think Samsung should have stuck with the Snapdragon 778g and the earphone jack is gone the A53 so you'll either need a usb-c to 3.5mm adapter or just her a pair of wired ones with usb-c on the end.

For me It would be choice of this phone a S20 series priced between $350-$550 or s21fe: Mainly as I'm interested in Snapdragon 865 power or power around there. or maybe another phone that isn't too expensive but has a good featureset and softwareset

    In zooming in on that Samsung charger (at 5:30), it shows 9v at 1.67A, or about 15w. Still low. I've tested output of many USB-C chargers listed as being 25w and being "adaptive", they actually will usually charge at around 13-14w and still charge in an hour and a half. You'll get a screen indication of "Fast Charging", but not "Super Fast Charging".

      If you want something that is really similar to this and can get for less bucks,go for the a33 instead. It has the same processor,contains the water and dust resistance rating and you get a less fluid 90 hz compared to the 120 hz on a53,but coming from a 60hz device,it will still be an upgrade for you. A33 is also slightly smaller making it more compact and has a waterdrop notch. This and a slight camera downgrade and you basically have the same phone.

For me personally my unlocked A52 5G has been skipped over three times now, in a year, for a security patch and our next patch looks to be arriving nearly 3-months after last. Can't vouch for other Samsung device's but here they've been overfeeding some while starving other's. I know crap happens but if they couldn't adhere to their promise in the first year what does that say about those remaining when the device's are even less relevant?
