As a mid-range smartphone introduced to the market in 2021 by Samsung, the Galaxy A52s has garnered attention for its affordability. But does this mid-range smartphone have an attractive appearance? Join us as we explore and find the answer.
1. Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy A52s: Does it come with a charger and charging cable?
Following the trend of omitting accessories pioneered by Apple, many brands have also removed chargers and earphones from the new retail boxes of their smartphones. Therefore, many users are wondering if the Galaxy A52s comes with all the necessary accessories in the box.
The answer is: the Galaxy A52s is sold with a box that includes a charger, charging cable, SIM ejector tool, and user manual. However, it lacks a wired headset. Additionally, some smartphones in this segment often come with a complimentary transparent silicon case for phone protection.
Despite omitting the charger, the A52s still comes reasonably well-equipped. At least, newcomers to Samsung phones won't need to spend extra money to buy a charger for the device.
2. Hands-on, Reviewing the Design of Samsung Galaxy A52s
Samsung is always known for its aesthetically pleasing phone designs, and the Galaxy A52s is no exception with its impressive exterior.
The phone features a borderless display with extremely thin bezels, providing a sleek look with dimensions of 159.9 x 75.1 x 8.4 mm while boasting a 6.5-inch screen. Maintaining these thin bezels also allows users to comfortably use the phone without worrying about accidentally touching the curved screen, a common issue with curved-screen smartphones.
Additionally, the camera module on the back of the Galaxy A52s has a modern design, neatly arranging the cameras into a rectangular shape for a contemporary look, while still meeting the users' functional needs.
Regarding the materials used, the Galaxy A52s employs a plastic frame and back, but the glossy finish gives it a shiny appearance similar to glass-covered smartphones. Meanwhile, the touch screen on the Galaxy A52s is protected by Gorilla Glass 5, providing scratch and impact resistance, meeting the users' demands.
Furthermore, the Samsung Galaxy A52s boasts the strength of retaining the 3.5mm headphone jack, catering to those who enjoy listening to music from their phones. Additionally, the widespread USB Type-C charging port brings many conveniences to users. The support for two physical SIM cards is also a highlight.
Currently, in the Vietnamese market, the Samsung Galaxy A52s is officially distributed with a selling price of 9,550,000 VND. At this price point, the A52s falls within the range of high-end mid-range smartphones in the current market.
