Samsung Galaxy M52 5G Specifications and Features

The Galaxy M52 5G features a plastic build like any other Galaxy M series phone. The rear panel has pinstripes just like on the Galaxy F62, which is also known as Galaxy M62 in some markets.

The handset flaunts a 6.7-inch sAMOLED+ Infinity-O display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels (FHD+), 16 million colors, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a centered punch-hole. The screen is protected by a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

The device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset paired with 6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. If needed, the storage can be expanded via a MicroSD card.

Further, the phone sports a triple camera setup on the back consisting of a 64MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide unit, and a 5MP macro snapper. Whereas, on the front, it has a 32MP shooter for selfies and video calls.

On the connectivity front, the handset supports dual-SIM, 5G (11 bands), dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, NFC, and a USB Type-C port. Unfortunately, despite being a budget smartphone, it lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack. However, it does come with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

As far as software is concerned, it runs One UI Core 3.1 based on Android 11 with Knox security. It draws power from a 5,000mAh, which can be charged at a maximum rate of 25W, however, Samsung only bundles a 15W charger in the box.

Last but not least, the Galaxy M52 5G measures 7.4mm in thickness, weighs 173, and features all the essential sensors like an accelerometer, ambient light sensor, gyroscope, compass, and proximity sensor.

The Galaxy M52 5G is in the news for the past few days. Going by its features, it could be one of the best budget Samsung smartphones this year. Yesterday, Amazon put up a promo page for this handset. Earlier today, the eCommerce giant even revealed the launch date for this phone, however, the information was soon taken down.

A few hours back, Amazon disclosed that the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G will be launching in India on September 19. But now, we no longer see this information on the device’s promo page.

That’s because September 19 is Sunday, and companies don’t unveil their new product on weekends. Hence, we believe that the device might go official a day later on September 20 (Monday). 

Anyway, it’s just a guess from our end. Therefore, the actual launch date for Galaxy M52 5G in India could be something else.

Talking about features, Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy M series smartphone is expected to arrive with a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection on the front, Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset, 6GB/8GB RAM, and 128GB storage.

It is said to come with a 64MP (wide) + 12MP (ultra-wide) + 5MP (depth) triple camera setup on the rear, 32MP front-facing camera, One UI 3.1.1 based on Android 11, Knox 3.7 security, Quick Switch, Content Suggestions, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, and 11 5G bands.

Last but not least, the Galaxy M52 5G will reportedly measure 164 x 76 x 7 mm in dimensions and weigh 175g.

The Galaxy M52 5G will be the next major Galaxy M series smartphone from Samsung for India. The entire specifications of this handset leaked last month. Today, the device’s press renders reveal its design as well as color options.

The renders of Galaxy M52 5G come from reliable leaker Ishan Agarwal via MySmartPrice. As per the images, the phone will have a rear finish similar to the Galaxy F62. In other words, the smartphone’s back will have pinstripes.

Talking about placements, a triple rear camera setup will be placed vertically. The location and shape of this camera array remind us of the Galaxy S20 FE. Further, the volume rockers and the fingerprint sensor-embedded power key will reside on the right side, the SIM card slot on the left side, and the front of the handset will sport an Infinity-O (centered punch-hole) display.

As far as specs are concerned, the upcoming Galaxy M52 5G will flaunt a 6.7-inch FHD+ (1080 x 2400 pixels) Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The device will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset coupled with 6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

The rear camera array will include a 64MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide unit, and a 5MP depth sensor. Whereas, on the front, there will be a 32MP shooter for selfies and video calls.

As for software, the phone will come with One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 with support for Knox 3.7 security, Quick Switch, Content Suggestions. Unlike most budget 5G smartphones, this one will have 11 5G bands but will only ship with a 15W charger. Lastly, the handset will measure 164 x 76 x 7 mm in dimensions and weigh 175g.

As of now, Samsung is yet to officially announce the launch date for Galaxy M52 5G in India.

Samsung has confirmed to launch the Galaxy M32 5G in India next week. The company is also expected to release the Galaxy M52 5G in the coming days. Ahead of their official announcement, the specs of these phones have emerged on the internet.

Reliable tipster Ishan Agarwal has partnered with 91Mobiles to share the specifications of the upcoming Galaxy M32 5G and Galaxy M52 5G. As expected, the former is nothing but a rebranded Galaxy A32 5G. On the other hand, the latter is completely a new handset.

According to the leaker, the Galaxy M52 will sport a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. It will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC coupled with 6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

Unlike other recent Samsung budget smartphones, this one will have a triple camera setup on the back consisting of a 64MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide unit, and a 5MP depth sensor. Whereas, on the front, the device will have a 32MP shooter.

The phone will run One UI 3.1 based on Android 11. It will feature a MicroSD card slot, Knox security, Quick Switch, Content Suggestions, and 11 5G bands. It will ship with a 15W charger, however, the actual charging speed is not known. Last but not least, the handset will measure 164 x 76 x 7 mm in dimensions and weigh 175g.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy M52 5G as the successor of the Galaxy M51 in the coming days. A little information about this device has already emerged in the past few weeks. Now, the handset has been also spotted at BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards). Hence, it might launch in India.

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy M52 5G has been certified by BIS with model number SM-M526B/DS. The firmware development for this Indian variant of the handset started last week only. Unfortunately, it’s not known when it will be releasing in the country.

According to previous reports, the Galaxy M52 5G will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC. For those unaware, the yet-to-be-announced Galaxy A52s 5G also features the same chipset.

Further, the device will arrive with a 32MP selfie camera. Whereas, on the back, it will include a 64MP Samsung ISOCELL GW3 primary sensor paired with a 12MP ultra-wide unit and a 5MP macro snapper.

It is said to come in three colors in Europe, namely black, white, and blue. There’s no word on its colors for India and other markets. However, we know that it will have a smaller 5,000mAh battery as compared to a huge 7,000mAh cell in its predecessor.

Nothing else is known about the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G, except for the above-mentioned factors. But we look forward to learning more about this smartphone before its official launch in the near future.

Earlier last month, the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G arrived on the Geekbench portal revealing its key specs, later the phone’s color variants were tipped. Now, the smartphone has appeared on China’s 3C certification hinting at an imminent launch.

According to the 3C certification, the phone with model number SM-M526BR will pack a 4,860mAh rated battery capacity. Once it is marketed, it is expected to be the typical 5,000mAh battery cell. It is worth noting that the predecessor, Galaxy M51 4G, had a massive 7,000mAh battery. Although not confirmed, we can expect some sort of fast charging support on the device, considering that the Galaxy M51 4G had a 25W fast charging support.

A previous listing about the phone confirmed that the phone will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G mid-range chipset. It will have 6GB of RAM, which could be the base variant for the phone. The phone will run on Android 11 out of the box and is expected to have OneUI 3 on top of it.

The phone scored 776 single-core points and 2877 multi-core points on the Geekbench 5 portal.

The smartphone is expected to come with a 64MP Samsung GW3 primary sensor at the rear and a 32MP single camera at the front. Considering it’s an M-series phone, we can also expect a large AMOLED screen and a plastic built.

Apart from this, the smartphone is touted to launch in three standard colors – White, Black, and Blue. It is said to debut in a few selected markets including Europe.

Lately, Samsung has been rebranding a number of smartphones. These rebadged handsets are part of the company’s budget lineup – Galaxy A, Galaxy M, and Galaxy F. This strategy seems to be yielding results, and therefore, we continue to see such devices. According to a new report, the South Korean tech giant is working on a handset called Galaxy M52 5G, which could be a rebranded version of the recently launched Galaxy F52 5G.

Earlier today, Samsung launched the Galaxy F52 5G in China as the company’s first Galaxy F series smartphone in the country. This device shares some of its specs with the Galaxy A52 5G but it is not the same device as Galaxy A42 5G and Galaxy M42 5G.

As per a new report by GalaxyClub, the clone of Galaxy F52 5G could go official as Galaxy M52 5G. This upcoming Galaxy M series will be the successor to last year’s Galaxy M51.

The publication speculates that the Galaxy M52 5G could be the unreleased SM-M425F. For those unaware, this phone is a variant of the Galaxy M42 with a 64MP Samsung ISOCELL GW3 primary camera sensor.

Since the Galaxy F52 5G has an identical name and a 64MP camera, there’s a chance that it could launch as Galaxy M52 5G in some markets. But the problem is that the exact camera sensor of the new device is not known since Samsung has not mentioned it on its website.

Another issue is that the model number of the Galaxy F52 5G is SM-E5260, which is completely different from SM-M425F. So the Galaxy M52 5G could be a standalone smartphone.

Whatever the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G turns out to be, we expect to learn more about it before its official launch in the coming days.
