Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G still worth buying?
The Galaxy A52 5G can still be a reasonable purchase at its current rock-bottom prices, but with software support nearing its end, most buyers would be better served by the newer A53 5G or A54 unless the A52 5G is significantly cheaper. The Snapdragon 750G handles everyday tasks well and the 64MP camera with OIS still takes good photos.
How good is the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G camera?
The 64MP main camera with OIS produces sharp, detailed photos in good lighting with pleasing colour reproduction. The optical image stabilisation helps with handheld shots and low-light situations. The 12MP ultrawide is decent for wider perspectives. Video recording tops out at 4K at 30fps, which is solid for a mid-range phone of its generation.
Is the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G waterproof?
The Galaxy A52 5G carries an IP67 rating, meaning it can survive submersion in up to one metre of fresh water for 30 minutes and is fully dust-resistant. This was a standout feature when it launched, as few mid-range phones offered this level of protection in 2021.
Does the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G have a headphone jack?
Yes, the Galaxy A52 5G includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, which Samsung later removed from the A54 onwards. This is a genuine advantage for anyone who prefers wired headphones or has existing earphones they want to use without an adapter.
How long does the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G battery last?
The 4,500mAh battery comfortably lasts a full day with typical use including social media, messaging, and video streaming. The efficient Snapdragon 750G helps with power management. Charging is at 25W wired, though Samsung only included a 15W charger in the box. There is no wireless charging.
How does the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G compare to the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G?
The A53 5G upgrades to the Exynos 1280 chipset for better efficiency, increases battery capacity from 4,500mAh to 5,000mAh, and extends software support to four OS updates and five years of security patches. Display brightness is also improved. However, the A52 5G retains the 3.5mm headphone jack that the A53 removed. The A53 5G is generally the better choice for longevity.

Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality.

Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
