Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G (Black, 8GB RAM, 128GB Storage) with No Cost EMI/Additional Exchange Offers + Rs 6000 Off on ICICI Credit Cards

Received the phone two hours ago. Here are my first impressions: Most of the reviews here are made by just looking at price point and the specs sheet. I am giving a genuine first impression. Pros: 1)Amazon's delivery: It just two days delivery and packing was good. No problem here 2) Display: Samsung being Samsung here. Display is top class. Buttery smooth with 120 Hz refresh rate. One of the best displays you will find in any phone at this price point 3) Cameras: I do not have much knowledge of cameras and I don't click much photos. But still they are descent enough. OIS is also present which is cool. Will update more on camera performance when I click few more pictures. Front camera is good as well. 4) Performance: Well just two hours of usage so cannot really comment on it. But whatever I have used till now, I didn't face any issues. 778G happens to be a good processor so it won't cause any problems in future as well. 5) Connectivity: Tried on both WiFi and 4G. Connectivity is very good. WiFi worked full speed even when I was 10 metres away from router 6) Software: One UI is very good to have on any phone. Will definitely get two major android updates so it will not make phone to feel outdated after two years unlike most Chinese phones out there. No problems on software front. Cons: 1) Look is not at all premium. It does not feel like you are holding a 37k phone in your hand. They have tried to make it look like a plastic body version of S21 series but still it does not feel premium when you hold in your hand. There are bezels on display as well which feel annoying. Only pro here is that the camera setup looks very good from back. 2) Back side of phone is fingerprint magnet. You got to use a case, which unfortunately is not present in the box. 3) They have provided only 15W charger though it supports up-to 25W charging. 4) Storage option is 8+128 which is disappointing. It should have been 8+256. Also they didn't mention if it is ufs 3.1 or not anywhere. 4) Off course the price of phone. It should have been few thousands less. So why did I bought this phone? I truly give more importance to software rather than hardware. I am not a heavy user, I play games very rarely. I wanted a phone with descent enough hardware but with great battery and more importantly OS upgrades. I was actually waiting for Pixel 5a to be launched in India but there are no signs of it so I went ahead with this one. I feel that Samsung will not disappoint me on software front. I will be able make full use of hardware provided with this phone. I you do not want to buy a Chinese phone and if you really care about phone's software, you should go ahead with this one. Trust me any normal user like me does not need sd870 or 888 for their daily work. What they need is great battery life phone with some pleasant UI. If you fall in this category , just go with it. Otherwise there are many other options available as well which give you better processor at this point. I will give more updates after one month of usage.. Thanks for scrolling this far and bearing with me.

After using the phone for nearly 2 weeks - Pros: - good battery life if you are an average user. If you are a very light user the phone can go without any charging for two days. - easy to handle - finger print unlock is accurate and fast - produces good sharp pictures when the light is good. - good call quality - everything runs superfast and without any lag on the phone. - zero bloatware and ability to turn off samsung apps Cons: - a bit heavy than normal and so wife complains of her hands paining after long calls - the phone came in a soiled/dirty box with dust inside the box leading to a suspicion whether we got a refurbished phone. The usual plastic covering on the box was missing but the seal was intact - slightly large form factor for people with small hands which gets worse when you put a cover on the phone.

Bought the 8 gb version at 30k It is a well rounded product and got updated to one ui 4 recently Pros One UI 4 is the best out there , very smooth and simple to use no adds or junk ware unlike Xiaomi etc. Plus 3 OS updates are guaranteed by Samsung. Display is really good 120 hz Camera is best in this segment, OIS helps a lot in capturing toddlers who can't stay still for a moment. Potrait mode is great night and macro are better than expected. (Camera is better than more expensive One plus/vivo/oppo phones) It has an official IP rating and can withstand water and dust, the phone alerts in case water has entered charging port and also when it's dry and safe to charge. Battery life is very good, very difficult to kill in a day. Getting SOT BTW 6 -8.5 hours. Performance is good no jitters in the past 2 months. Cons Plastic back could be better, it's solid but doesn't justify 30k+ tag. Needs a metal frame 15 w Charger in box is painfully slow takes 1.25 hours to charge from 20-100, 25 watt charger will charge lot faster but needs to be bought separately. At 38k S20 FE will give a better Camera (so only buy if you get it within 32k)

Pros: 1. Stereo Speakers 2. Good Camera (FHD @ 60 FPS Support) 3. Good OIS 4. Dual Sim and Very wide 5G Band 5. Waterproof IP67 Not Good - Not Bad: 1. Battery 2. Camera Quality Cons: 2. Build Quality Detailed Review: 1) Sound Quality I purchased this phone just based on sound quality and I should say I am 100% Satisfied. This is stereo speaker enabled Handset and this is one of the very few handsets with stereo speakers. Speaker didn't get damaged and I should say they are pretty good, clear. Sometimes, I could feel the bass of the song. Literally an awesome phone, if you are sound-loving person. 2) Camera Quality Good when compared with Chinese phone makers. Pretty decent, I would say. Night mode is good. I am not a pro photographer, but I do take photos once in a while. Selfie camera is good. I would say S20FE is just 4000 Rs+ to this and that is far superior on this. 3) Build Quality Good Thing : Very elegant design. Not like a fancy design, it is. Very professional and very clean design. Not Good Thing: It is plastic case. It don't break - that's good. But, gets scratched much faster - that's bad. Good: It has metal Frame. ADVICE: Get a very good cover which is tight. Clean your phone and case once in 2 weeks and keep on doing it. Or else, you will start seeing ugly spots. 4) Display WHOAH. No words and it is beautiful. Ultimate Display with Stereo speakers, this is for you Series Freaks! 5) Battery Yeah. That's something we have to talk about. 4500 mAH. Stands easily for a day with normal usage (I see YouTube videos, Netflix series, listen to songs, use with Bluetooth speakers). Charging speed is awesome - Pretty decent. I use 15W box-provided charger. Get 25W, if you want to boost the speed. 6) Headphone Jacks : It is there, dude. 7) Waterproof: They say IP67. This phone, almost 4-5 times fell in water (bucket) and withstood. No problem. Almost drained in rain for sometime and worked - no issues. So, good. Btw, Physical damages doesn't get covered under warranty - that's a bummer. For more info : https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01001077/ 8) Performance That's simply superb. Awesome Processor - Awesome Chipset - Awesome Performance. Capable of running PUBG with High graphics without battery drain and without heating issue. NO HEATING ISSUE!!!!! Even in any condition. 9) Samsung Pay - NFC You can save your cards (which has Tap and Pay feature enabled) and pay using your phone like you pay using your card. This is because of NFC. Only Samsung can do this and that is supported by multiple banks. Single App, which can enable you to pay via UPI / Debit Card / Credit Card. So, guys, check out S20FE. That is just Rs. 4,000/- higher than this. But, it does provide good competition. It has Dex enabled and Good camera. But, do compare.

It's a good phone but coming from an older lg flagship, I just felt the experience quite lacking. What I liked - Great battery life. Great software, both performance and feature wise as well as in terms of update - this midranger was getting android 12 at Feb 2022 when even some phones launching at the time were not coming with it. Good display Stereo speakers What I felt was not good enough - Haptics are mediocre. Camera - It is pretty good. But no stabilization at 4k, no raw support, overall bad pics in challenging situations.. these were a deal breaker for me. My older lg v30 was doing better in many situations. Phone is really bulky especially with a case. Build quality is meh.. And this is after buying the phone with a heavy discount at around 25k. At full price I won't even bother. But still, I finally sold it and got s20 fe which I think is a better deal even though it's a bit old. Better go for previous flagships then newer midrangers. Just my take :)

I have been using this phone for the past three years and during this time, I have encountered numerous issues. Despite having 5G, the internet connectivity is poor and often doesn’t work properly. Although the phone is advertised as water-resistant, I constantly receive notifications about water residue in the charger socket. The battery drains quickly, and I have faced multiple technical problems, including damage to the charger socket and the main camera. The cost for repairing the main camera was 4000 rupees, which I had to pay at the Samsung store. These recurring problems have been quite frustrating and disappointing.

Galaxy A52s is a good phone and after using this for a reasonable time I find the following advantages and problems- ADVANTAGES: 1.VERY GOOD DISPLAY.The display is better than the one in OnePlus Nord 2. 2.Snapdragon 778 has been optimised in this phone. 3.Camera can record video at 4K 30fps, both in front and in back. 4.User interface is smooth 5.Knox security is fully functional 6.Optimum 5G Bands provided. 7.4g + is available 8.IP Rating is added bonus. 9.Brand value is better than Chinese minions. PROBLEMS 1.BLOATWARE is present and is installed even with updates. 2.Only 15 watt charger provided in box. 3.Display brightness is a problem in outdoors. 4.Camera configuration is similar to Galaxy M51 released in 2020, even though certain additional facilities have been introduced. 5.There is no facility of recording 4Kvideo @ 60 fps even though such facility is available in IQOO5, at a lesser price. 6.This phone is not optimised for Gaming. 7.Updates are loading bloatware in the phone.

Well a pretty good product by Samsung, if you dont have too much expectations. I have been using this phone from last 15 days and can tell you about my experience. Pros:- The camera quality is Good as always (as it is Samsung). Display is FHD+ sAMOLED. Dual Stereo speakers works fine. Comes with 3.5 mm jack ( a feature to notice nowadays 😅). There is no connectivity issue. With SD 778 the overall performance of this phone is decent, as it is combined well with Samsung's One UI. Plus it has 12 5G bands. Cons: The battery backup is a bit low as it gives you 6- 9 hrs of screen On time depending on the usage, but that is not a thing of concern because if you normally use it , it can give battery backup of 1 day or a bit less than that. The price of this smartphone is its biggest Con, but if you wait for the right time and buy this phone in sale that too under 30k, its worth it. So, overall it lives up to the general expectations, and worth a try.
