Samsung Galaxy A52 8GB RAM: Pros & Cons

7.5
out of 10
MSP SCORE
  • Good Stuff
  • Super AMOLED display
  • 90Hz refresh rate support
  • Decent cameras
  • Storage expandable up to 1TB
  • Android 11 out of box
  • Decent battery life
  • Water resistant IP67 rating
  • Bad Stuff
  • Average hardware for the price
  • 25W fast charging not enough
  • No 5G support
Verdict
Samsung Galaxy A52 competes in a crowded market with average hardware in tow. Yes, the Super AMOLED screen is a big plus but only supports 90Hz refresh rate at this price. The cameras do a decent job and even the selfie camera is quite competent. But having 4500mAh battery might not prove adequate for most power users. Worth going for if you rely on a brand name and want to avoid the Chinese devices. Otherwise, much better options available in this price range.
