About the Samsung Galaxy M33

The Galaxy M33 is Samsung's practical middle option in the M range, and it makes its choices in a very deliberate way. Instead of chasing an AMOLED screen, it spends its budget on a 120Hz refresh rate, 5G through Samsung's own 5nm Exynos 1280, and a 5,000mAh battery, then keeps the things budget buyers actually miss when they disappear: a 3.5mm headphone jack and a dedicated microSD slot that does not force you to give up a second SIM. The trade-off is the panel. It is a TFT LCD, so contrast and outdoor brightness are ordinary next to the AMOLED-equipped M53, and the 5MP ultrawide is a weak point that shows in wide landscape shots. The 50MP main camera is solid in daylight. What has aged best about it is software: Samsung's long update commitment for this tier means it has been carried through several major Android generations, which is unusual longevity for a phone at this level and a genuine reason to consider one today.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Samsung Galaxy M33 worth buying?
The Samsung Galaxy M33 is worth buying if you want 5G, a smooth 120Hz screen and long battery life without paying A-series money, and you value keeping a headphone jack and a dedicated microSD slot. The main compromise is the TFT LCD panel, which cannot match the AMOLED screen on the Galaxy M53 for contrast or outdoor visibility.
Does the Samsung Galaxy M33 have a headphone jack?
Yes. The Galaxy M33 keeps the 3.5mm headphone jack, so wired earphones work without an adapter. It also has a dedicated microSD slot, meaning you can run two SIMs and a memory card at the same time.
How long will the Samsung Galaxy M33 receive updates?
The Galaxy M33 launched on Android 12 with One UI 4.1 and has been carried through Samsung's long mid-range update programme, reaching Android 16 and One UI 8. That is an unusually long software life for a phone in this bracket, though it is now near the end of that window.
Is the Samsung Galaxy M33 camera good?
The 50MP main camera is dependable in good light and produces clean, well-exposed shots. The 5MP ultrawide is the weak link and noticeably softer, and the 2MP macro is a novelty. Video records at up to 4K 30fps from the rear, while the 8MP front camera is limited to 1080p.
Does the Samsung Galaxy M33 support 5G?
Yes. The Galaxy M33 uses Samsung's 5nm Exynos 1280 chipset with integrated 5G, so it works on all UK 5G networks. The 5nm process also helps the 5,000mAh battery stretch through a full day comfortably.
What is the difference between the Samsung Galaxy M33 and the Galaxy M53?
The M53 has a larger 6.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen, a 108MP main camera and a 32MP selfie camera, and is both thinner and lighter. The M33 counters with the headphone jack, a dedicated microSD slot and a lower position in the range.
