Samsung Galaxy A53 5G SM-A536B 16,5 cm (6.5") Double SIM hybride Android 12 USB Type-C 6 Go 128 Go 5000 mAh Bleu

I’m happy with my purchase.

Old 52s that was my construction industry phone eventually gave up the ghost after a lot of abuse and I had just obtained a very good sim only deal for 2 years, so it was better for me to get a well known mid range phone replacement used in a tough environment. Works well with lots of apps and as plenty storage with additional micro sd card from old phone. One interesting thing was all the newer more expensive samsungs did not have a slot for the extra storage card which put me off them.

Mobile phone a good size with simple, sleek looks. Features as described in product specification, etc. Provides good storage with SD card expansion. Only issue is Quick Start guide supplied in sealed box was not for this model. Neded to search online for actual manual. Also phone required to process many system updates going back over some 2 year period.

I ordered this phone in a jam when my TCL just stopped working and it has been good to me ever since! I love the camera quality, although recently I've noticed the video quality is terrible. Don't know if that's this phone specifically, but I actually think it's a Samsung/Android thing in general. When I post videos, the quality is very low and grainy. Nevertheless, I love everything else about the phone. Speakers, battery life, the perfect size to fit in my pocket, ability to connect to any and all signals/networks, the colour, and the durability. Would highly recommend!

The Samsung's come with the promise of an above average level of update support from the manufacturer, and the phone that I bought was indeed very much 'as new' with no marks or prior signs of use, and charged to 48%. Mine was shipped in awesome blue, and I have to say that the colour is very pleasing on the eye, although it is now encased in a protective cover.Although professional reviewers have quibbled about the speed of its processor, and this may indeed be an issue to gamers, it is perfectly quick enough for my use. It is responsive, and the onboard camera and lenses supplied have exceeded my expectations at this pricepoint. Pictures have been sharp and colours accurate, with scope for post-processing if so minded. I still love my Olympus O-MD EM1 Mk 1 for my photography, but this camera phone looks like it will provide a very capable backup option, which hasnt been the case with the (admittedly more budget) phones that I have used in the past (The Honor 7C being my most recent.The internal storage capacity of 128GB is more than adequate for normal users I would suggest, but I have added 256 GB extra as a contingency and to save filling the internalphone card, as I do not require the dual sim facility that this phone offers.I used Samsung Switch to migrate the settings from my Honor phone to the Samsung. If you are doing this, then be advised - don't download the app from Google Play to the old phone, but instead use the QR code option provided during setup. It will save a load of frustration and a small world of pain! (I ended up resetting my new phone to factory default and going through the process twice as the phones were refusing to link using the wireless option and the wired option when using the app downloaded from the Play store. Once reset, and the QR code transferred, the wireless option of transfer was absolutely stress free and seamless).Still getting used to the Samsung settings and UI - it has been many years since I last got a Samsung - but first impressions are highly favourable. Although it has a predominantly plastic body, it does seem robust and claims to have very good dust and rain resistance. It is quite weighty in the palm, but in a reassuring and not overly heavy way, and is fitted with Gorilla glass.All in all I am well chuffed! Are there better phones out there? Certainly. Are there phones with better camera capabilities? Again, certainly. Would I feel happy to spend significantly more money to achieve those benefits? Certainly not, given that this phone is not my primary camera.The screen gives excellently defined graphics at a smooth refresh rate (120Hz), making it a noticeable step up from my 90 Hz Honor screen, and the sound from the onboard speaker is decent showing a good dynamic range, to my ears at least.It is reportedly possible to connect wired headhones via the multipurpose usb-c slot, but I will be using bluetooth headhones anyway.As a phone, the A53 may have been superseded by the A54 in some respects, but it still stands proud as a mid-priced phone with some premium (near flagship) features.

I think this phone is brilliant for the money. Why would you want to spend more? It's fast, has a great camera, and does everything I'd expect of a mobile phone. I got one for my wife and she loves it too. The battery life is great and lasts at least a day and a half in normal use.

Samsung A53 is a good, value for money phone that even after 2 years of usage still working smooth. Getting updates regularly and if you keep a decent memory free space, it won't freeze or slow.

The phone is easy to use and so far no problems. The photo side is really good.I am an SLR user. I was after a good camera phone and think this works well.II do miss an optical zoom. But for the money all the other types of photographywork well. The night photography is amazing. The macro is good allowing very close up.The portrait allows you to blur the background really like.The editing app is really good. Although I would like to make a copythat is still changeable within the app. Have not been able to find a way of doing this yet.So still using photoshop. Best photo setting a good addition.Really like this phone.
