This time last year, Samsung’s Galaxy A event brought us theSamsung Galaxy A52– which we called “the perfect mid-ranger” – and its sibling, theSamsung GalaxyA72. This year’s event, which takes place on 17 March, should introduce us to their successors.
Will the new Samsung Galaxy A Series be an iPhone SE 2022 killer?
The current A52 already bests the newiPhoneSE in some key respects. It’s got a bigger, higher resolution screen and that display is AMOLED, not IPS LCD. It has more RAM, and more storage, and you can expand that storage with memory cards.
That’s not all. It charges more quickly, and it has a much more powerful camera system: where the iPhone SE has a single 12MP rear camera, the A52 has a triple-camera setup with 64MP, 12MP and 5MP. And the selfie shooter is 32MP compared to 7MP for the iPhone.
Last but not least, the Samsung was (I’m using past tense because Samsung is no longer selling it in anticipation of the new release) cheaper: £399 RRP and a street price often much lower than that compared to £419 for the iPhone.
So what can we expect this week? The Samsung Galaxy A53 is going to be a slightly more refined version of the current model with a 120Hz display, even more RAM, a more recent chipset and a bigger battery. The camera assembly may be increased to a four-camera setup too. That means it’s going to be a lot of phone for the money, and if you haven’t already picked a horse in the Android vs Apple smartphone race it’d be wise to wait for its announcement if you were already thinking of getting the new iPhone SE.
