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.

The Galaxy A33 5G is similar in design to the Galaxy A53, especially the back panel, but where it differs the most is the screen. On this device, Samsung has gone with a waterdrop cutout for the front camera.

The screen of the device measures 6.4-inch and has an FHD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-U panel with 90Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

The phone is powered with Samsung’s latest 5nm based Exynos 1280 SoC and gets up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage which can be expanded via a microSD card.

Earlier in February, Samsung held the Galaxy Unpacked event at which the company unveiled their flagship Galaxy S22 series along with the Galaxy Tab S8. Now, rumors have emerged that the company plans on holding another event for the launch of its upcoming mid-range devices.

According to tipster TechInsider, Samsung has allegedly scheduled their A-series event aka the Galaxy Awesome Unpacked event for March 2022. The revelation is in line with the usual timeline of Samsung’s mid-range launches over the years.

This year, we expect Samsung to launch their Galaxy A53 5G and the Galaxy A73 5G as the showstoppers. However, the duo might even be joined by the upcoming Galaxy A33 and the Galaxy A23 devices. Currently, there are no finer details available as to when exactly the launch event will take place, but going by recent leaks surrounding many Samsung mid-range devices, we can expect it after the second week of the month.

Samsung Galaxy A53 5G specs (rumored)

So far, the upcoming Galaxy A53 5G is said to have a 6.52-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED display with a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz.

The device will come equipped with an unreleased Samsung midrange SoC dubbed the Exynos 1200. The SoC will have two high-performance cores clocked at 2.4 GHz and six cores with a maximum clock speed of 2.0 GHz. The CPU is supported by the Mali G68 GPU for graphics. The device will come in two RAM variants, 6GB and 8GB. It is also touted to at least have 128GB of internal storage which can be further expanded by up to 1TB with a microSD card.

The device is said to house a 5000mAh battery with 25W charging support. The rear quad-camera setup will likely have a 64MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultrawide lens, a 5MP macro, and a 5MP depth sensor.

Samsung Galaxy A73 5G specs (rumored)

The Galaxy A73 5G leaks state that the device will come with a 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED display. It will have a 90Hz screen refresh rate and a higher touch sampling rate. The screen on the phone will be a punch-hole panel and just like the predecessor, we expect it to have an under-display fingerprint scanner.

In terms of optics, the smartphone is expected to have a quad-camera setup with an upgraded 108MP primary lens. The primary lens will have OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) support. It will be accompanied by a 12MP ultra-wide sensor and may have telephoto or auxiliary sensors.

Under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy A73 5G is expected to come powered by a Snapdragon 7XX chipset. It could be the Snapdragon 750G SoC paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage. Lastly, the phone is expected to pack a big battery with 25W fast charging and run on Android 12 OS.
