The Samsung Galaxy A53 5G is a good mid-range smartphone with a great display, very good camera and a long-lasting battery. Unfortunately, the performance is lacking.

  • NegativeNo jack socket
  • NegativeSlow pace of work

At the market launch, we would have been quite critical of the Samsung Galaxy A53 because of its high starting price, despite some of the strong features for a mid-range device. However, since the price of the A53 is continuously in free fall in this discipline, you can now buy it for around 300 euros without hesitation.
