Samsung has just launched their new Galaxy A series devices at the Galaxy Awesome Unpacked launch event. The devices unveiled today are the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G and the Galaxy A33 5G, so without further ado, let’s take a look at the specs and features of these devices.
Samsung Galaxy A53 5G
Starting with the Galaxy A53, the device features a gorgeous look with a flat back and rounded edges. The back panel is also claimed to be made out of polymers made out of recycled plastic keeping with the eco-friendly approach of the younger generation.
The camera module of the device has a smooth-looking protrusion from the pack panel and a minimalistic design making for a clean look for the entire back panel.
The front of the device rocks a flat 6.5-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-O display with slim bezzles around it. The display has a 120Hz refresh rate, a center punch-hole for the front camera, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. It also features an in-display fingerprint sensor for security.
Under the hood, the Galaxy A53 5G gets a 5nm based Exynos 1280 SoC that pairs with up to 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. The RAM and storage can be expanded even further as Samsung offers virtual RAM functionality on the Galaxy A53 along with a micro SD card slot that supports a microSD card of up to 1TB. The device gets the latest Android 12 based OneUI 4.1 operating system out of the box.
The battery on the smartphone is rated for 5000mAh capacity and supports 25W fast charging, however, Samsung has not included a charger in the box this time around which is a first for mid-range Android smartphones. The device however gains the IP67 dust and water-resistant rating which is also a surprise in the mid-range.
For photography, the Galaxy A53 5G has a 64MP camera with an f/1.8 aperture and OIS, a 12MP ultrawide camera with an f/2.2 aperture, a 5MP macro lens with an f/2.4 aperture, and a 5MP depth sensor. For selfies, the device carries a 32MP f/2.2 front camera.
