Samsung Galaxy A52 5G

The Samsung Galaxy A52 5G is an upgraded version of the regular Galaxy A52, with some notable improvements, but also a higher price tag. The design is similar to other recent Samsung mid-rangers, with a pastel color scheme and soft matte finish that feels nice to touch. However, it's made of plastic and doesn't feel cheap. One major difference from the regular A52 is the display, which is a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED with a 1080p resolution and Gorilla Glass 5 protection, but also features a 120Hz refresh rate. This makes swiping and scrolling content on screen look smoother. The camera setup is also improved, with a 64MP quad-camera main cam, a 12MP ultra-wide-angle camera, a 5MP macro camera, and a depth sensor. The phone's performance is solid for a mid-range device, with good thermals and decent gaming capabilities. Battery life is also improved, with an endurance rating of 111 hours in our tests. However, the charging speed is not exceptional, taking around an hour and 40 minutes to fully charge from zero. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G offers a great package, including a snazzy design, a high-quality display, good performance, decent battery life, and excellent camera capabilities. However, its price may be a major deterrent, as it's more expensive than the regular A52 and some competitors that offer more powerful chipsets and faster charging speeds.
