The Galaxy A52 is about to be launched by Samsung. The manufacturer will deliver us a batch of mid-range smartphones soon. The Galaxy A52 presents itself as a slightly more compact alternative to the Galaxy A72, which it still looks a lot like.
Samsung has bet on the high-end with the series of Galaxy S21 to start the year 2021, the South Korean manufacturer will follow with the upcoming release of mid-range mobiles, the devices it sells the most internationally. We will have a Galaxy A72, but also a Galaxy A52, which looks like it on several points but adopts a more compact format. Here’s everything we know so far about the Samsung Galaxy A52.
When does the Galaxy A52 come out?
Samsung will unveil the Galaxy A52 at the same time as the Galaxy A72 on March 17, 2021 at 2:30 p.m. (Paris).
What is the price of the Galaxy A52?
The galaxy A52’s euro price would be set at 349 euros,with arguably more generous and expensive memory configurations. The smartphone should be accompanied by a Galaxy A52 5G, which would be marketed at a price of 429 euros. The 5G version of the smartphone is displayed at 370 euros in some countries.
What is the Galaxy A52’s technical record?
The technical specifications of the Galaxy A52 have largely leaked through several sources. Of course, there is a possibility that these features will evolve until Samsung formalizes the smartphone.

What design for the Galaxy A52?
The Galaxy A52 adopts the same design as the Galaxy A72. The front camera is integrated into the screen via a central punch and the fingerprint reader is positioned under the slab. Borders surround the screen, the lower one being a little thicker than the others, allowing Samsung to offer a 3.5mm jack port for audio. The smartphone would be IP67 certified water and dust resistant.
The smartphone has a plastic back, an aluminum frame, and will be available in four colors: black, white, blue and lavender. The photo block is positioned in the top left corner and consists of four sensors and the LED Flash. You can view the first official visuals of the smartphone by clicking here.
How big is the Galaxy A52?
This is one of the main differences of the Galaxy A52 with the Galaxy A72, it is equipped with a screen with a diagonal of 6.5 inches, compared to 6.7 inches for the big brother. Otherwise, the same Super AMOLED technology is present, with a Full HD definition of 2400 x 1080 pixels.
What is the galaxy A52’s performance?
Again, Samsung would opt for the same strategy for the A72 and A52, namely the presence of a soC mid-range Snapdragon 720G for the 4G model and a faster and 5G-compatible Snapdragon 750G chip for the Galaxy A52 5G. This is not necessarily very generous on the part of Samsung, these SoC can be considered in the low range of Qualcomm’s mid-range chips.

The Galaxy A52 4G and 5G would both be entitled to two configurations, one with 6GB of RAM and 120GB of storage space, the other with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal memory. Depending on the market, all variants may not be available. But the good news is that each one would offer a micro SD card slot to extend the device’s storage.
How long does it last for the Galaxy A52?
The smartphone has a 4500 mAh battery that is slightly smaller than the Galaxy A72. It should be felt on autonomy, but it is still a more than honourable capacity. If the refreshment frequency is as expected higher on the A52 5G, this feature will inevitably draw on energy consumption.
The Galaxy A52 supports a wired charge of 25W, but Samsung would only provide a 15W charger in the box. Unlike the Galaxy S21, there is at least one of them provided for the purchase of the mobile, but it is a pity to have to buy another charger to take advantage of the full charging potential of the smartphone. Unsurprisingly, no wireless charging on this model.
Is the Galaxy A52 good in pictures?
It is a quadruple sensor that is in charge of the photo and video part of the Galaxy A52. The 64MP main module would be paired with an 8MP ultra wide-angle and two other 5MP and 2MP sensors, the first probably a macro lens and the second a sensor dedicated to depth of field calculation.
The 32MP front-facing camera will be in charge of selfies as well as facial recognition if you prefer this biometric feature for fingerprint authentication.
What is the Android version of the Galaxy A52?
The smartphone is beautiful to be a mid-range, it will benefit from all the new software introduced by Samsung with its Galaxy S21. The Galaxy A52 is launched directly under the One UI 3.1 update, the latest version of the manufacturer’s homemade overlay based on Android 11.
The Galaxy A52 benefits from the many new features provided by One UI 3.0 as well as the few additions that have appeared with the minor update One UI 3.1, including a mode to film at the same time with the main camera and the front camera or the ability to delete an object on a photo.
