For the first time ever, the Redmi Note series has a Pro+ variant. Its name is Redmi Note 11 Pro+ and its killer feature is the incredibly fast charging speed. But besides that, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is also one of the most complete mid-rangers in the current market. Is it the best device you can get in its price range or there are good competitors? There is no better way to understand it than comparing it to the most amazing phones sold in the same price range. Today it is the turn of the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G being the rival of the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ in this specs comparison. If you want more, stay tuned in the next few days for other comparisons including the Redmi Note 11 Pro+.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy M52 5G

Design

Do you prefer having a better design or better materials? If your answer is the first, then Samsung Galaxy M52 5G offers something more, in my honest opinion. It has a cleaner design with a camera module coming with the same color as the rest of the rear side. Further, it is a thinner and lighter phone than Redmi Note 11 Pro+. But the latter has a glass back just like premium phones, and its front glass is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It is a bit more compact, but it is thicker and heavier than Samsung Galaxy M52 5G.

Display

The displays of the Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus and the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G are more or less at the same level. They both come with the AMOLED technology and a Full HD+ resolution, as well as a high 120 Hz refresh rate. The Redmi Note 11 Pro+ adds the HDR10 certification which helps provide a higher image quality on streaming platforms, while the panel of the Galaxy M52 5G is dubbed Super AMOLED Plus due to its better image reproduction if compared to other AMOLED panels. Note that despite being AMOLED, these phones have a side-mounted fingerprint reader instead of an in-display biometric sensor. The audio provided by the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is louder thanks to its stereo speakers tuned by JBL, while Galaxy M52 5G has just a mono speaker.

Hardware/Software

Here we got a very interesting battle: Mediatek Dimensity 920 5G vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G. According to benchmarks, the Snapdragon 778G mobile platform found on the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G is slightly more powerful than the Dimensity 920 found on the Redmi Note 11 Pro+. On the other hand, you can get a higher amount of internal storage with the Redmi Note 11 Pro+: up to 256 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Given the marginal differences between the hardware departments, we believe the amount of storage is a more relevant detail if you need 256 GB. The phones run Android 11 out of the box with heavily customized user interfaces.

Camera

The Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is equipped with a better main camera: a 108 MP sensor that supports 4K video recording against the 64 MP main camera of its rival. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G has better secondary sensors: a 12 MP ultrawide camera (instead of just 8 MP) and a 5 MP macro camera (instead of 2 MP). Last but not least, the Galaxy M52 5G has a way better front camera with a 32 MP resolution.

Battery

The Samsung Galaxy M52 5G actually has a longer battery life simply because it packs a bigger battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh. Instead, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ has faster charging speeds thanks to 120W fast charging bringing the charge from 0 to 100 percent in just 15 minutes.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus vs Samsung Galaxy M52 5G: Price

The starting price of the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ in the Chinese market is about €260/$300 (still not available globally), while you need  €400/$462 or more to purchase the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G globally. For some people, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is a more interesting handset because it provides faster charging and a better main camera, but for others the Galaxy M52 5G may be better due to its thinner and lighter design, bigger battery, better secondary sensors, and superior processor. Which one would you pick?

The post Redmi Note 11 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy M52 5G: Specs Comparison appeared first on Gizmochina.

A few weeks ago, Samsung released its latest upper-midrange phone: the Galaxy M52 5G. It is the successor of the Samsung Galaxy M51 and it brings several improvements to the shelves, but its predecessor has still much to say even a year after its release. Despite its very affordable street prices, the Samsung Galaxy M51 remains one of the best battery phones out there and it offers a better camera experience than the new Galaxy M52 5G. These are the reason why the Galaxy M51 may still offer a higher value to several users. And this is the reason why we decided to publish a comparison between Samsung Galaxy M52 5G and Samsung Galaxy M51 highlighting the differences between their specifications.

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G vs Samsung Galaxy M51

Design

If we only consider the look of these two devices, the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G looks more beautiful. Its camera module is more minimalistic, the design is thinner and lighter. Both the phones are made of polycarbonate and both come with a single punch hole placed centrally on the display. The screen to body ratio is similar, with narrow bezels on all the sides. The Samsung Galaxy M51 offers something more in terms of build quality because its front glass is protected by Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3+, but if we exclude this, there are no important differences when it comes to the build quality.

Display

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G and Samsung Galaxy M51 are equipped with Super AMOLED Plus displays sporting a diagonal of 6.7 inches and a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. The image quality is exactly the same and the displays do not come with embedded fingerprint readers. The fingerprint readers are placed at the sides, on the power keys. The only difference between the displays is the refresh rate: the new Samsung Galaxy M52 5G has a 120 Hz refresh rate, while the Galaxy M51 has a standard 60 Hz refresh rate. So, with the Galaxy M52 5G, you can get a smoother viewing experience and it will be useful especially if you are a gamer.

Specs & Software

The 5G connectivity is one of the most important differences between Samsung Galaxy M52 5G and Galaxy M51. On the former, you can get this connectivity, while the latter only supports 4G LTE. Further, the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G has a stronger processor: the Snapdragon 778G mobile platform running at a max frequency of 2.4 GHz, way better than the Snapdragon 730G found on the Galaxy M51. The memory configurations are the same: you can choose 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage or 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. The internal storage is expandable through a micro SD slot. Note that Samsung Galaxy M52 5G ships with Android 11 out of the box, while Galaxy M51 runs Android 10: with the newer model, you would get longer software support.

Camera

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G has the same main camera as the Galaxy M51: a 64 MP sensor with an f/1.8 focal aperture. On both the phones, the main camera is paired with a 12 MP ultrawide lens and a 5 MP macro camera, but the Galaxy M51 adds a 5 MP depth sensor making its camera setup more versatile. Further, the Samsung Galaxy M51 has a better front camera: we are talking about a 32 MP sensor with an f/2.0 focal aperture and 4K video recording.

Battery

Besides providing a better camera setup, the Samsung Galaxy M51 also comes with a bigger battery and it can achieve a longer battery life. With a whopping 7000 mAh of capacity, the Galaxy M51 is one of the best battery phones in the market and it can also be used as a power bank thanks to reverse charging.

Price

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G debuted in the Indian market with a starting price tag of Rs. 25,999 / $345, while the Galaxy M51 was priced at Rs. 19,999 / $265, but it is currently available at more affordable prices because it is one year old. If we exclude the battery, the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G is a way better phone, but it is more expensive. Which one would you pick?
