Samsung is the best in the business when it comes to software updates. The brand is highly praised for offering long-term software updates, and that’s true even for budget phones. Still, even the most generous update policies eventually reach their conclusion — and that time has come for a few of Samsung’s devices.

As spotted by Sammobile, the company has removed four Galaxy smartphones from the official support list: Galaxy A52s, Galaxy A03s, Galaxy M32 5G, and Galaxy F42 5G. This means these Galaxy phones won’t receive major One UI upgrades as well as security patches. In fact, they stopped receiving OS updates long ago, and going forward, no new security updates will be provided to them.

All four Galaxy smartphones were released in the second half of 2021 and promised four years of security updates, which are now fulfilled. As a result, they have been added to the end-of-life (EOL) list.

If you own a Galaxy A52s, Galaxy A03s, Galaxy M32 5G, or Galaxy F42 5G, consider upgrading to a newer model. This ensures your device continues to receive the latest features and security patches, protecting you from various vulnerabilities. You can, however, continue to use any of these Galaxy smartphones. They would work just fine. However, I won’t recommend doing so, especially if the device contains sensitive data.

You can look at the list of Samsung devices that promise six major Android upgrades and seven major Android upgrades to find a reliable upgrade that stays relevant for the years to come.

Samsung launched the Galaxy A52s 5G in India in September 2021. Almost 7 months after its release in the country, the company has officially slashed the price of this smartphone. The price cut comes after the debut of the Galaxy A53 in the country.

The South Korean electronics giant introduced the Galaxy A52s 5G in India in two memory variants. The 6GB + 128GB and the 8GB + 128GB versions of the handset debuted at ₹35,999 and ₹37,999 respectively.

According to SamMobile, Samsung has now dropped the price of both these variants by ₹5,000. Hence, they now retail at ₹30,999 and ₹32,499. The new price is applicable to all the channels, however, retailers may offer additional discounts of their own as well.

Thanks to the price cut, the Galaxy A52s 5G is now cheaper than the newly released Galaxy A53 5G in India. For those unaware, the newer model costs ₹34,499 and ₹35,999 for for 6GB + 128GB and 8GB + 128GB memory configurations respectively.

Though the Galaxy A53 5G is the latest smartphone of the two, it neither has a powerful chipset nor a 3.5mm headphone jack. However, it does come with Android 12 out of the box and is guaranteed to receive four more Android updates.

On the other hand, the Galaxy A52s 5G houses a powerful chipset and a 3.5mm headphone jack. But unfortunately, it launched with Android 11 and has already received one of its three promised Android updates. Hence, it will get two fewer Android updates and existing users are already facing multiple issues after the Android 12 update.

Last year, Samsung released three Galaxy A52 smartphones, namely Galaxy A52, Galaxy A52 5G, and Galaxy A52s 5G. The first two were unveiled in March and the last one came as a surprise in August. The latter was probably the best Samsung mid-range smartphone in 2021. But unfortunately, the device has apparently lost its mojo after the Android 12 update.

Samsung started rolling out Android 12 stable update with One UI 4.0 for the Galaxy A52s 5G in January. Two months later, the latest software is currently available for the handset in all the regions.

After updating to the fresh version of Android and One UI, users are now facing issues that were not present earlier, reports SamMobile. Multiple users of the phone have taken to Samsung forums to share the problems faced by them.

First and foremost, users say that the update has slowed down the device. Per them, the animations are now slower and the scrolling is janky. The performance issues are the most common among the users.

Secondly, many users are also experiencing battery drain. The battery performance is poor even when the high refresh rate mode is disabled. Then, there are some for whom the proximity sensor has stopped working properly during calls. Lastly, a user even reports degradation in speaker quality.

Samsung hasn’t officially responded to the user reports yet. But we can expect the company to fix the aforementioned issues with the One UI 4.1 update.

With that being said, if you are facing problems with your Galaxy A52s 5G after the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 update, then do let us know in the comment section below.

We have been hearing about the Galaxy A53 for months. The smartphone may go official at the rumored Galaxy Awesome Unpacked 2022 event sometime later this month. Ahead of that, its price in Europe has emerged.

According to GizPie (via SamMobile), the upcoming Samsung Galaxy A53 will likely debut at €469 in Europe for the 6GB + 128GB memory configuration. This is based on a retailer price listing spotted by the publication, which mentions €466.49, which is an odd price tag.

Even if the phone releases for the listed price, it will be slightly more expensive than the Galaxy A52s 5G. For the unaware, the current-gen model was unveiled at €449 for the same memory variant.

Talking about features, the Galaxy A53 is expected to bring minor upgrades over its predecessor. Its design will be somewhat similar with some tweaks and will be available in an orange color instead of purple, in addition to black, white, and blue.

Most importantly, it will be powered by Samsung’s own Exynos 1200 SoC. The chipset will be paired with 6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB storage.

Further, the handset will flaunt a 6.52-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with a centered punch hole. It will house a 64MP (wide) + 12MP (ultra-wide) + 5MP (macro) + 5MP (depth) quad-camer setup on the rear.

Finally, the smartphone will boot Android 12 and get its juice from a 5,000mAh, which will have support for 25W fast charging.

Samsung launched the Galaxy A52s 5G in India at the beginning of September. Unlike other regions, India only got three colors. Now, over a month after its debut, the phone finally gets the missing fourth hue option in the country.

The only two differences between the Galaxy A52 5G and the Galaxy A52s 5G are chipset and color. The newer model comes with a Snapdragon 778G SoC instead of a Snapdragon 750G chip. Also, it arrives in an Awesome Mint color version instead of Awesome Blue.

India did not get the Galaxy A52 5G. On top of that, when Samsung brought the Galaxy A52s 5G last month, it did not bring the device in the exclusive paint job. The new color is the only way to identify the A52s from the 4G and the 5G models of A52.

Earlier today, in a tweet, Samsung finally confirmed the availability of the Galaxy A52s 5G in Awesome Mint hue in India. But unfortunately, the new color version is still not listed on Samsung.com.

Since the South Korean tech giant has made an official announcement, the latest color should be available soon. As the Galaxy A series is sold by almost all offline as well as online retailers in India, it should be easy for interested customers to get hands-on the new hue.

The Galaxy A52s 5G retails at ₹35,999 (6GB + 128GB) and ₹37,499 (8GB + 128GB) in India.

A few days back, Samsung announced the Galaxy A52s 5G in Europe. The new A-series phone is a slightly upgraded version of the already available Galaxy A52 5G. This smartphone has now made its way to India as well. Let’s take a look at what it offers and how much it costs in the country.

Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G Specifications and Features

The new Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is a Galaxy A52 5G inside out, except for the chipset. The latest model comes powered by a much powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC instead of a Snapdragon 750G SoC.

The device flaunts a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels (FHD+), a 120Hz refresh rate, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The panel has a centered punch-hole (Infinity-O) and 800 nits peak brightness level in high brightness mode (HBM).

Further, there’s a quad-camera setup on the back consisting of a 64MP primary sensor with OIS, a 12MP ultra-wide unit, a 5MP macro snapper, and a 5MP depth sensor. Whereas, on the front, there’s a 32MP shooter for selfies and video calls.

On the connectivity front, the phone supports dual-SIM, 5G (12 5G bands), dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.2, GNSS, NFC, USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Other features include dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, an in-display fingerprint sensor, a microSD card slot, Samsung Pay, Samsung Knox, and One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 with 3 years of guaranteed OS updates.

Last but not least, the smartphone is backed by a 4,500mAh battery with support for 25W fast charging. However, it ships with a 15W charger.

The Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G retails for the following price tags in India.

Last week, Samsung released the first teaser of the Galaxy A52s 5G for India. It confirmed on Saturday that the smartphone will go official at 12 PM (local time) in the country. Ahead of the launch, a couple of listings of the Galaxy A52s 5G is now available on Amazon India. The listings allow users to add the phone to the cart and make payment.

There seems to be some problem with Galaxy A52s 5G’s Amazon listings as its 6 GB RAM variant is listed for Rs 38,999 (~$530), whereas its 8 GB RAM edition is listed with a lower price of Rs 35,999 (~$490). Hence, readers are recommended not to order the device now and wait for its official announcement.

After launching the Galaxy A52 5G in March, Samsung has followed it up with a slight refresh in form of the Galaxy A52s 5G. The new phone has most of the specs of its sibling but a more powerful processor.

Galaxy A52s 5G Design

The design has remained unchanged, so you get a flat Infinity-O AMOLED display with a hole in the center for the selfie camera. There are still four cameras on the back and they sit in a rectangular housing that is slightly raised. Buyers will be able to pick up the phone in four colors – Awesome Black, Awesome Mint, Awesome Violet, and Awesome White.

Galaxy A52s 5G Specifications

The Galaxy A52s 5G has a 6/5-inch FHD Super AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. There is a 32MP camera inside the hole in the display. Under the hood is the Snapdragon 778G processor and it is paired with 6GB or 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of storage.

For the rear cameras, Samsung is keeping them at four – a 64MP f/1.8 main camera with OIS, a 12MP f/2.2 ultrawide angle camera, a 5MP f/2.4 macro camera, and a 5MP f2.4 depth sensor.

The Galaxy A52s 5G has an in-display fingerprint scanner. It also has IP67 water and dust resistance. There is a 4500mAh battery under the hood along with support for 25W fast charging.

Other features include an audio jack, stereo speakers, a MicroSD card slot, Samsung Pay, and One UI 3 based on Android 11 with features such as RAM Plus for memory expansion and Samsung Knox for security.

According to previous reports, the Galaxy A52s will be near-identical to the Galaxy A52 5G released earlier this year. The only differences will be the chipset and a new color.
