About the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G
The Galaxy M52 5G comes from Samsung's online-first M range, where the brief is to put the specs people actually notice at the top of the list and quietly trim elsewhere. The result is a phone that punches above its class in two areas: a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus panel running at 120Hz, which is a genuinely flagship-feeling screen, and a Snapdragon 778G that handles multitasking and mainstream games without complaint. It is also strikingly thin at 7.4mm and light for its size at 173g, which makes a big-screen phone easier to live with. Trade-offs show up around the edges. There is no headphone jack, no official water resistance rating and no wireless charging, and while the 64MP main camera is solid in daylight, the 12MP ultra-wide and 5MP macro fall away quickly in poor light. Samsung took it to Android 13 with One UI 5.1, so its software runway has ended. Best treated as a big-screen workhorse rather than a long-haul purchase.

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G Specifications
Spec Scores
£200-£399 Phones · 194 phones
- Snapdragon 778G 5G
- Octa-core (1x2.4 GHz Cortex-A78 & 3x2.2 GHz Cortex-A78 & 4x1.9 GHz Cortex-A55)
Based on calibrated CPU benchmark rankings (60%) and GFXBench GPU scores (40%). Apple chipsets included via editorial calibration since AnTuTu under-represents Apple's architecture.
- 6.7 inches
- 1080 x 2400 pixels
- AMOLED, 120Hz
Based on panel type (LTPO is the modern flagship gold standard), resolution, refresh rate, peak brightness, screen size, and HDR10+ / Dolby Vision support. Marketing peak-brightness claims are capped at 3500 nits to prevent inflation.
- Triple camera setup
- 64 MP main camera
- 4K video recording
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.
- 32 MP front camera
- 4K selfie video
Based on selfie megapixels and max selfie-video resolution.
- 5,000 mAh
- 25W wired
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.
