Greetings from Poland. I liked your review! I got this phone as a second one for when I go hiking in the mountains...I'm to scared to take my utra 😅 I can say yes it's water resistant, I lost it in a stream for 10 mins and it still works perfectly! But I agree, I do feel the lack of telephoto lense more than I thought I would.
Hi 👋 Thanks for sharing your experience. Good to hear your phone works fine even after being in a stream. IP rating did its job there 👍 It could've been better with a telephoto lens since it gives better quality and taking animal photo is easier. I am using this as my second phone too 🖖
Thank you so much for the kind word. 😊 I think you can find a decent deal soon. For example, Saturn in Germany has slashed a lot on Samsung products at the moment. 8gb ram is better future proofed than 6gb and I think you are gonna love it. Wish you the best deal!
I purchased this phone saturday and the fact that you said that it doesn't heat up much makes me relived because two weeks ago I got the s21fe which is a great phone but unfortunately it had exynos 990 and when I used it for basic things like youtube , netflix, tiktok and instagram it started heating in minutes and there was a rattling noise near the camera. I got lucky when I purchased the a52s, the price was 289 euros but it recently went up to 361 euros. Anyways good review man.
I have S21 fe too but mine has Snapdragon 888. Guess what. 888 is firedragon. It gets hot too🔥 🥵 I can imagine how hot yours could be since it has Exynos. You snagged a nice deal. That is a cool price and it doesn't get hot easily even in summer. Enjoy your A52s!
@@Technoliath Thanks bro, btw I saw reports of people saying how ui 4.1 has issues but lately I read a review and it said that if you update it to ui 4.1 automatically it reverts back to 4.0 and to avoid those problems you have to update it manually rather than automatically .
Your English is great! Thanks for the review, it's very helpful! I'll subscribe, why not? Also, I would have purchased the a53 in a heartbeat if it had a Snapdragon chipset instead of the exynos one. The lack of headphone jack on the a53 would have bothered me a bit but I just can't stand the exynos stuff. It's so bad in comparison.
I genuinely honestly appreciate this :) Exynos has been a deal breaker for a lot of people and it still is. I avoid Exynos whenever I can after having a bad experience with it. Samsung stopped all the Exynos projects so, thankfully, we're not gonna see any Exynos next year except 1380. Thanks for joining me!
I bought it 2 weeks before. Guys it doesn't heatup, no lags. Working perfactly. Just missing in it dual video support and night click photos aren't good. Rest of the things 👍👍👍
14:22 I just found that Ram Plus is controlled through Settings -> Battery -> Memory. Some users find that enabling virtual memory with Ram Plus can hurt performance, because the virtual memory is not as fast.
Yeah, it's "virtual" memory and it uses empty storage space as a virtual memory. I guess it's better to have this option than nothing but we cannot expect the same performance as DDR ram.
I gotta choose between Realme GT 5g 12GB Ram 256GB storage and A52S 5G 6GB Ram and 128GB storage. Both are the same price. I really don't know which one to choose. They both make good photos so i dont really care about that. The GT will have Android 13 while the A52S will have Android 14. Don't really care about that either. Gaming performance is good for both so if I want a game, i can just play it. Mostly looking for long term use. Which one should i choose? they're both around 350 ish.
Except for the Android update, Realme is a clear winner. 12gb ram, Snapdragon 888, and internal storage. I like having an up to date software but one generation difference doesn't seem to be a big deal.
Hi. I like your stile and i love your honesty, but if I may offer a piece of constructive criticism, when doing a review you should address common problems experienced by users. For example, a lot of people complain about the virtual proximity sensor. Anyways, good review.
Very awesome review my friend. I'm thinking of upgrade to this phone for the specs, the jack 3.5 and the micro sd. Dude I have a iphone se 1 gen the change is gonna blow my mind, nonetheless, I love the tiny bastard. You won my subcribe.
Heyy there! What are your current views on A52s battery backup? Is it good and still worth purchasing? With other competitors at same price available, should I go for it?
Hi. Battery life is still decent. I haven't seen any deterioration yet. Mrwhosetheboss did a video on battery swelling issue of Samsung phones and it seems like it happens when you don't use your phone for a while. But it's something we should know about. If you can get this for 250 bucks, I still think it offers amazing value.
@@Technoliath Thank you so much for replying and clearing my doubt, I am amazed see content and quality of your vedios, you got a new sub nevertheless👌
@@Technoliath Okay, thanks again. With this clear manner, I imagine that you will have great success in the field of phone reviews, keept it bro ... I wish you more success.
@avianchavarria4667 great phone for daily use,misses out on the top extras that their flagship phones have,with the new updates. But it's a great daily phone for sure. But if it's an all singing and dancing phone ya want maybe something g else
Is it a good upgrade from redmi note 9 pro? Considering faster charging on note 9 pro, gcam, youtube Vanced installed (cant do it anymore), faster fingerprint sensor. But I'm really attracted to a52s cause 120Hz and amoled...
Yes, I think it's a nice upgrade for mainly two reasons; 1. AMOLED display with 120hz refresh rate. Samsung always offers the best display for the price and you won't be able to go back below 120hz once you see it. 2. Snapdragon 778G. It's way faster than the Snapdragon 720G in Note 9 pro. You are definitely gonna feel snappiness right from the get go.
Really nice review. I have a question though. I bought a Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 back in February and I'm thinking about giving it to my dad, and I want to buy a new phone for me. So, should I buy another RN11, a Mi 11 Lite 5G NE or this A52 5G?
Mi 11 Lite 5G is an upgrade if you can drop IP 67, headphone jack, and 120hz refresh rate. It has better processor than A52s. Redmi Note 11 is a downgrade except battery, charging speed, and FM radio. It has way slower processor than A52s. I think you are gonna like A52s if you put display quality before everything else. Samsung always has shown the best display. And IP 67 rating on A52s is better than IP 53 on the other devices. The thing is there are A52 5G and A52s 5G. A52 5G is way slower than A52s 5G due to the processor so make sure to buy A52s 5G. That little 's' makes a lot of difference.
Hello. A52s is a perfect phone for your purpose. Snapdragon 778G is more than powerful enough to handle everyday tasks and gaming. However, if you buy this phone now, you will get the last Android update next year and the last security update in 2025. That means you will have to use old Android 14 until 2026. If I were you, I would buy this phone and use it until 2025. I would have to use Android 14 in 2025 so that means using one year old Android system but I will get up to date security patch. This way, I can save some money for not upgrading my phone after two years and my phone won't be vulnerable since it gets security software support. All in all, it can definitely handle what you want and I recommend using this phone up to 3 years, which is 2025 because of security software update.
Hello. Would you consider just using 60hz over 120hz for the sake of battery? I feel like it is a crime since it will handicapped the phone by its capabilities. But then again battery is a factor especially in workplace.
Yeah, I’m totally okay with that. I mean it’s always nice to have extra battery life but I can’t go back to 60hz once I saw 120hz. It makes a huge difference, imho.
Hey! Pls help me. Am thinking of buying the a52s 6gb ram and the Google pixel 6a but idk about the 60hz. Also, I live in Greece which Google doesn't support with a result 5g not working on the Google pixel 6a and if it breaks or u get a bad device i can't return. Only way to fix it is to send back to Google for them to see it which will take a month. Pls help which one to choose. I really like the Google pixel 6a though.
Hi. A52s is a smarter choice in many ways. It has bigger and smoother display. 60hz and 120hz makes a huge difference, in my opinion. Gorilla glass 5 on A52s is two generations ahead than Gorilla glass 3 on Pixel 6a. I have used Google Tensor on Pixel 6 and Snapdragon 778g feels faster than the Tensor. A52s has micro sd card slot, headphones jack, better camera, and longer battery life. The only downside that I can think of is it's not stock Android but some might prefer One UI. I would choose A52s over Pixel 6a. The Pixel is missing out so many good stuff.
Hi...very clear explanation...can u suggest me a Mobile Best for Front cam video recording & obviously Performance & battery....My budget would be 370 dollars Max...
I think A52s is still a nice phone in that budget range. Amazon India is offering a modest discount on A52s now and it's just within your budget. amzn.eu/d/fEJAE7e Or if you want 4 years of Android updates then A73 can be a better option. It has 8gb ram, bigger display, and better rear camera. It's a bit more expensive but sales season is coming so maybe waiting for a deal could be a good idea. amzn.eu/d/hHwlbxT Hope you get a phone you want!
It's a hybrid dual sim card slot by default. You cannot use two sim cards with SD card in it. But check whether the model you buy says it's a dual sim model. Just in case.
I would go for A52s. Xiaomi 12 lite doesn't have sd card slot and headphone jack. S20 fe is going to be obsolete in 2024 because the software update will end in 2023, which is just 3 months from now.
The processor has enough power to handle smooth slo-mo and Samsung does camera updates if needed. So yeah I think it will be. But what kind of problem do you have with slo-mo?
No worries. Redmi Note 11 pro+ seems to be better in terms of spec except ap and selfie camera. But I don't recommend it because of ap and reliability.
It’s very capable processor. I have no doubt you can do pretty much everything you want. Gaming is super smooth, photo is nice, and overall performance feels snappy. It doesn’t get hot easily.
I'm deciding between samsung A52s and realme 10 pro plus. In realme, the lack of optical stabilization and a headphone jack confuses. The camera is very important to me. What's confusing about the a52s is that it's an old model. Help me choose🙏
A73 5G looks good. It has better main camera, bigger battery, larger display, 4/5 years of Android/security updates, the same SD 778G and lighter. It doesn't have a headphone jack though. It is 36,119 INR on Amazon India so within your budget.
I thought to buy this phone but i want phone with good battery can u plz tell about its battery i want not for gaming just for social media specially for netflix or youtube plz tell about its battery how much battery drain in 3 hrs watch movie with normal brightness
@@Technoliath ok sir thxs i also thought about a73 but it has no handfree jack which i want. And plz tell one last thing that samsung a31 i used now has good battery than a52s
Test completed. It went from 100% to 65% for watching 3 hour RUclips in 4k with median brightness and sound. I watched the following video in 4k ruclips.net/video/ofUOATVjKF0/видео.html
I'm sorry for responding late. I have been feeling unwell. I think so. You are gonna see the difference on the display. A52s has Super AMOLED 120hz and iPhone 11 has LCD 60hz display. It makes a huge difference. The iPhone's AP, A13 is a bit better than the Snapdragon 778G in A52s but I think A52s is a solid upgrade for everything else.
I am moving to Germany for studies this year and I was curious that this phone supports the LTE bands in Germany or not , now I am going to buy this Thank you for the review
Sorry to hear that you are not happy with this phone. You might want to take a look at phones with 240hz touch sampling rate for better response in games. Anyways, thanks for watching my video.
in 2023, Straight Talk is making changes which will make this phone incompatible. (Verizon bought Straight Talk.) I have just switched to Mint Mobile, which is compatible. I am very happy with my A52s 5G.
Good question. I wouldn't buy S20 FE in 2022 because Android 13 will be the last update and that's next year. The phone itself is okay. I had used it for about half year and I liked it but I don't see any reason to buy S20 FE at this point.
Thanks a lot bro I was exctually planing to buy a52s but s20fe5g was also a good deal in almost the same price I was confuse between these two. Is Iq neo 6 also a recommended phone over a52s?
I see S20 FE on a huge sale quite a lot these days. Maybe because it's gonna be obsolete very soon. A52s is definitely a better choice over S20 FE. If you meant Vivo iQoo Neo 6, it seems like a better phone than A52s in terms of spec except for SD card slot, headphone jack, selfie camera, and battery life. I would personally choose A52s coz I trust Samsung more.
Yeah sorry to hear your experience with S22. My S22 Ultra gets hot way faster than A52s. Snapdragon 778G in A52s doesn't heat up as much as or as fast as S22.
@@Technoliath im living in tropical country btw, there is only summer and winter season only, in the summer time and even while charging the frame toast my finger.
I guess you are experiencing battery problem with iphone 11 so my answer is YES. I think you are gonna like display, camera, and battery life. Other stuff like sd card slot, headphone jack etc are plus.
Samsung couldn't even bring an object eraser to the A52s, they removed the object eraser that came with the February update, shame on Samsung, they are deceiving Turkey.
I think Samsung wanted to push A53 more and the result is ditching the object eraser on A52s?! Not really a thoughtful move because Snapdragon 778G can handle it and everyone knows it. XCover 6 Pro has the same processor and it has the object eraser so I can't come up with a better idea than it was a poorly executed segmenting strategy.
@@Technoliath I am of the same opinion. Samsung is doing wrong to us users about this, I want korean who knows their e-mail address to contact me, thanks for your comment
@@Technoliath s.k tech we are waiting for your help from turkey for this a52s object eraser, you can contact samsung please, I ask you to greet with respect
I think Samsung won't fix something just because we ask for it. Here's my experience; When I was doing S21 FE review I found out the battery information on Samsung USA's website is not correct. It says S21 FE has 4,000 mAh battery, which is wrong information and it should be 4,500. And the website says S21 5G has 4,500 mAh but it actually has 4,000 mAh so the numbers should replace each other. I had a live chat with its customer service desk (I had to go through a chatbot to get to an actual human and it took some time). The CS personnel told me I need to contact another department to fix this. I already spent half hour getting to this point and I saw no motivation to bring this problem to another desk spending extra time. So I stopped. And I think the CS person told me the wrong department since it was a technical problem department. As a result, Samsung USA is still displaying the wrong battery information for S21 FE and S21 5G. Samsung is such a huge company and it takes more than two of us to change its software policy. GOS is a good example. I checked that you can have a chat on Samsung Turkey's website. If you really want to talk to them about this matter, I think you can reach out to Samsung through it. But my experience is not so positive. Frankly, I know I can't help anyone on this issue. It's WAY above and beyond my capability.
@@Technoliath You are a really good friend, a good leader, Samsung is very indifferent, you can solve this problem, we trust you, Turkey Samsung is very uninterested, I don't just make money, I thank you very much.
@@Technoliath I paid something 345 dollars in india(27600 rupess) for the 8/128 gb variant is it good price ...and why samsung charge more than other android mobile manufacturing companies? Is it for brand value ,ip ratings or tech support?? I can easily get same specifications phone in 250-300 dollars
That's fair for 8gb ram model. There are many reasons and I would say spec is not everything. Some people weigh other factors more than just specification. It could be brand, design, ecosystem, familiarity, color, software support, and the list can go on forever. I think for this phone the reason is 14:37 Thanks for the question. It is fundamental and I liked thinking about it. 👍
wow i need to disagree with you i have the same phone so has my partner and we have not found any of the things you mention we find the phones good for what we want the last phones we had was the nova and between the two the galaxy A52s 5g is at least 90% better its like all phones that do have some short comings but compared to the phone we had we can not fault them
Sorry but I'm one man RUclipsr at the moment and it's too much for me to do that. I will implement it as soon as I can in the future and I can only do that with your support. Thanks a lot for hanging around and please stay tuned.
Thank you! I appreciate your sub 🙏 Unfortunately, I am using this phone as my backup. But I think I’m gonna do a giveaway in the future so don’t miss it!

@@Technoliath So are you okay to sacrifice some juice for the sake of 120hz refresh rate? Well perhaps it is just me and my battery anxiety. Lol
Yeah, I’m totally okay with that. I mean it’s always nice to have extra battery life but I can’t go back to 60hz once I saw 120hz. It makes a huge difference, imho.
Thanks for the review :)
I am glad you like it 😃
Hey! Pls help me. Am thinking of buying the a52s 6gb ram and the Google pixel 6a but idk about the 60hz. Also, I live in Greece which Google doesn't support with a result 5g not working on the Google pixel 6a and if it breaks or u get a bad device i can't return. Only way to fix it is to send back to Google for them to see it which will take a month. Pls help which one to choose. I really like the Google pixel 6a though.
Hi. A52s is a smarter choice in many ways. It has bigger and smoother display. 60hz and 120hz makes a huge difference, in my opinion. Gorilla glass 5 on A52s is two generations ahead than Gorilla glass 3 on Pixel 6a. I have used Google Tensor on Pixel 6 and Snapdragon 778g feels faster than the Tensor. A52s has micro sd card slot, headphones jack, better camera, and longer battery life. The only downside that I can think of is it's not stock Android but some might prefer One UI.
I would choose A52s over Pixel 6a. The Pixel is missing out so many good stuff.
Hello! What is better: A52s or Redmi Note 12 pro and why? Thanks!
A52s is better because of display and no ads
Hi...very clear explanation...can u suggest me a Mobile Best for Front cam video recording & obviously Performance & battery....My budget would be 370 dollars Max...
Thank you for your comment.
Where are you based?
@@Technoliath India
I think A52s is still a nice phone in that budget range. Amazon India is offering a modest discount on A52s now and it's just within your budget.
amzn.eu/d/fEJAE7e
Or if you want 4 years of Android updates then A73 can be a better option. It has 8gb ram, bigger display, and better rear camera. It's a bit more expensive but sales season is coming so maybe waiting for a deal could be a good idea.
amzn.eu/d/hHwlbxT
Hope you get a phone you want!
@@Technoliath Okay.....Thank you for your Suggestion 👍
Huawei Nova 9 or Samsung A52s 5g can you help me which was better
I would go for Samsung A52s because I like having SD card and A52s is easier to update the OS.
I ask you again. Is the wifi pickup weak or strong? Thank you
It receives wifi pretty well.
No issue at all.
Thanks for the quick reply keep it up
Everythings great n fine with my a52s 5g, my only concern is that its speaker and call speakers and mic are not so loud.
Yeah it had to cut corners and the speaker got hit. Thanks for sharing your thought 👍
Is this dual SIM by default or do you have to buy a specific model?
It's a hybrid dual sim card slot by default. You cannot use two sim cards with SD card in it.
But check whether the model you buy says it's a dual sim model. Just in case.
thanks
respect the timestamp keep up the good work
Thanks!
Samsung s20fe,,a52s or xiaomi 12 lite?
I would go for A52s.
Xiaomi 12 lite doesn't have sd card slot and headphone jack.
S20 fe is going to be obsolete in 2024 because the software update will end in 2023, which is just 3 months from now.
Bad slow motion video quality will it be fixed in future updates?
The processor has enough power to handle smooth slo-mo and Samsung does camera updates if needed. So yeah I think it will be.
But what kind of problem do you have with slo-mo?
hi men forgev my English you recommend this phone our the redmi note 11pro+5g
No worries. Redmi Note 11 pro+ seems to be better in terms of spec except ap and selfie camera. But I don't recommend it because of ap and reliability.
I'm coming to the end of my contract, i got this phone when it first came out and I'm probably going to buy another because i love it that much
Nice to hear that you like this. Probably the best price-performance ratio Samsung phone.
@@Technoliathupdate, im getting a google pixel 7 pro but i still love this phone
how much do you rate Snapdragon 778g who come with this phone?
It’s very capable processor. I have no doubt you can do pretty much everything you want. Gaming is super smooth, photo is nice, and overall performance feels snappy. It doesn’t get hot easily.
I'm deciding between samsung A52s and realme 10 pro plus. In realme, the lack of optical stabilization and a headphone jack confuses. The camera is very important to me. What's confusing about the a52s is that it's an old model. Help me choose🙏
Which one did you ended up buying?And do you like it?
@@topg7 As a result, I abandoned these options. I chose Samsung S21 FE. I like everything except the battery - it is weak.
Hi I was wondering which phone to you is better a53 or a52s
Hello.
For me, it's A52s. Hands down.
Can u recommend a samsung phone under 500$ which is an all rounder and will last for 3 years minimum
Sure.
It would be good to know whether you play a game with your phone.
@@Technoliath yes like 3 hrs or more in a day
Ok. And where are you based?
Cause some Samsung phones are not available in some markets.
@@Technoliath sadly india, no SD versions of s21
A73 5G looks good.
It has better main camera, bigger battery, larger display, 4/5 years of Android/security updates, the same SD 778G and lighter. It doesn't have a headphone jack though.
It is 36,119 INR on Amazon India so within your budget.
Nice review sir thanks
Sure thing 👍
Im stuck between this and the xiaomi 11 lite 5g NE. some help pls
If A52s isn't way more expensive than Xiaomi in your local market, buy A52s. It's heavier than the Xiaomi but has better spec.
Is it worth upgrading to this from an iPhone 7?
1000000%
I haven't used iPhone 7 but have used 6s and 8 plus.
You are gonna experience a whole new world when you upgrade from iPhone 7.
@@Technoliath thanks!
A52s or iPhone SE 2020???
this is my phone now, can i use a 20w charger from ipad air for this?
Yes. It supports up to 25w and 20w charger will work fine.
Brother What about Samsung S20 Fe... Should I buy This Now.
NOPE!
Android update will be over next year.
@@Technoliath ok sir
I thought to buy this phone but i want phone with good battery can u plz tell about its battery i want not for gaming just for social media specially for netflix or youtube plz tell about its battery how much battery drain in 3 hrs watch movie with normal brightness
4:05
3 hour RUclips won't drain battery that much. I will test exactly what you said and leave the result here.
@@Technoliath ok sir thxs i also thought about a73 but it has no handfree jack which i want. And plz tell one last thing that samsung a31 i used now has good battery than a52s
Test completed.
It went from 100% to 65% for watching 3 hour RUclips in 4k with median brightness and sound.
I watched the following video in 4k
ruclips.net/video/ofUOATVjKF0/видео.html
A31 has larger battery than A52s but Snapdragon 778G is more efficient than Mediatek P65 so I think A52s has better battery life.
@@Technoliath ok sir thank u very much great job u did
Honest indeed!
Thank you!
great honest review 👍🙏
Thank you very much 🙏
Is it a good upgrade from iphone 11??
I'm sorry for responding late. I have been feeling unwell.
I think so. You are gonna see the difference on the display. A52s has Super AMOLED 120hz and iPhone 11 has LCD 60hz display. It makes a huge difference. The iPhone's AP, A13 is a bit better than the Snapdragon 778G in A52s but I think A52s is a solid upgrade for everything else.
can i use this phone in canada? i planning to buy a52s 5g here in Philippines before going to canada. Do you think this phone will work there?
Sure. A52s supports GSM, HSPA, LTE, and 5G and most of Canadian service providers support these networks. So it will work.
@@Technoliath thank you so much btw new subscriber here 😁
You're welcome and thanks for subscribing my channel👍
I am moving to Germany for studies this year and I was curious that this phone supports the LTE bands in Germany or not , now I am going to buy this
Thank you for the review
This phone SUPPORTS LTE network in Germany. I have tested with Vodafone and Alditalk. It worked just fine 🙂
@@Technoliath Thank you very much
Does it support wifi6 or not thanks
Yes it does support wifi 6.
forget numbers...a52s is worst phone display ever ,worst touch response with worst accuracy in games.
it's a review not a user experience
Sorry to hear that you are not happy with this phone. You might want to take a look at phones with 240hz touch sampling rate for better response in games. Anyways, thanks for watching my video.
in 2023, Straight Talk is making changes which will make this phone incompatible. (Verizon bought Straight Talk.) I have just switched to Mint Mobile, which is compatible. I am very happy with my A52s 5G.
Thanks for the info and your comment! Nice to hear that you are happy with A52s. I love this phone too. 👍

Nice review, thanks
Is camera good?
Yeah it's not the best camera but produce a good result. I like the night mode.
6:06
What about S20fe 5g bro?
Good question.
I wouldn't buy S20 FE in 2022 because Android 13 will be the last update and that's next year. The phone itself is okay. I had used it for about half year and I liked it but I don't see any reason to buy S20 FE at this point.
Thanks a lot bro I was exctually planing to buy a52s but s20fe5g was also a good deal in almost the same price I was confuse between these two.
Is Iq neo 6 also a recommended phone over a52s?
I see S20 FE on a huge sale quite a lot these days. Maybe because it's gonna be obsolete very soon. A52s is definitely a better choice over S20 FE.
If you meant Vivo iQoo Neo 6, it seems like a better phone than A52s in terms of spec except for SD card slot, headphone jack, selfie camera, and battery life. I would personally choose A52s coz I trust Samsung more.
sold my s22 and switch to a52s,,, the heat issue and battery life of s22 really bad.
Yeah sorry to hear your experience with S22. My S22 Ultra gets hot way faster than A52s.
Snapdragon 778G in A52s doesn't heat up as much as or as fast as S22.
@@Technoliath im living in tropical country btw, there is only summer and winter season only, in the summer time and even while charging the frame toast my finger.
Is it worth it to buy 2nd hand of this?
Sorry for late response. I don’t think so in 2024 coz the OS update is over for A52s.
Love from Bangladesh 🥰
I have a A52s and it start glitching and move slow have it for one month now I sorry I buy it
Sorry to hear that. 😞
There's no time waste in ur review
Thanks. Coz your time is valuable.
You study at RWTH ? 😁
Turn off WiFi scanning for longer battery usage
Great info review
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Should i get it? I have iphone 11 now
I guess you are experiencing battery problem with iphone 11 so my answer is YES. I think you are gonna like display, camera, and battery life. Other stuff like sd card slot, headphone jack etc are plus.
@@Technoliath oh thank you!! I just got my phone like 2 months ago the battery is fine i will still see tho i lovee the samsung a 52
@@andiselimi3344 how's the Camera and battery
@@thendomodau2409 battery lasts 5 hours camera is good
Samsung couldn't even bring an object eraser to the A52s, they removed the object eraser that came with the February update, shame on Samsung, they are deceiving Turkey.
I think Samsung wanted to push A53 more and the result is ditching the object eraser on A52s?!
Not really a thoughtful move because Snapdragon 778G can handle it and everyone knows it. XCover 6 Pro has the same processor and it has the object eraser so I can't come up with a better idea than it was a poorly executed segmenting strategy.
@@Technoliath I am of the same opinion. Samsung is doing wrong to us users about this, I want korean who knows their e-mail address to contact me, thanks for your comment
@@Technoliath s.k tech we are waiting for your help from turkey for this a52s object eraser, you can contact samsung please, I ask you to greet with respect
I think Samsung won't fix something just because we ask for it. Here's my experience;
When I was doing S21 FE review I found out the battery information on Samsung USA's website is not correct. It says S21 FE has 4,000 mAh battery, which is wrong information and it should be 4,500. And the website says S21 5G has 4,500 mAh but it actually has 4,000 mAh so the numbers should replace each other. I had a live chat with its customer service desk (I had to go through a chatbot to get to an actual human and it took some time). The CS personnel told me I need to contact another department to fix this. I already spent half hour getting to this point and I saw no motivation to bring this problem to another desk spending extra time. So I stopped. And I think the CS person told me the wrong department since it was a technical problem department. As a result, Samsung USA is still displaying the wrong battery information for S21 FE and S21 5G.
Samsung is such a huge company and it takes more than two of us to change its software policy. GOS is a good example. I checked that you can have a chat on Samsung Turkey's website. If you really want to talk to them about this matter, I think you can reach out to Samsung through it. But my experience is not so positive. Frankly, I know I can't help anyone on this issue. It's WAY above and beyond my capability.
@@Technoliath You are a really good friend, a good leader, Samsung is very indifferent, you can solve this problem, we trust you, Turkey Samsung is very uninterested, I don't just make money, I thank you very much.
I do like the phone @nd the fingerprint sensor is OK.
My experience wasn't crappy but sorry to hear that.
It's not an ultrasonic sensor so it could be slow to some people.
@@Technoliath took off the case I put on with built on screen saver turns out that was the main problem. So I need to modify my post.
I will buy this phone in 3 hours from now at Malaysia. 🎉
Excellent choice! I hope you like your new phone.
Is it worth buying at $341?
If u are paying for 128gb/6gb model, it's not a cool price.
I wouldn't buy.
@@Technoliath I paid something 345 dollars in india(27600 rupess) for the 8/128 gb variant is it good price ...and why samsung charge more than other android mobile manufacturing companies? Is it for brand value ,ip ratings or tech support?? I can easily get same specifications phone in 250-300 dollars
That's fair for 8gb ram model.
There are many reasons and I would say spec is not everything. Some people weigh other factors more than just specification. It could be brand, design, ecosystem, familiarity, color, software support, and the list can go on forever.
I think for this phone the reason is 14:37
