Samsung Galaxy M53 5G Review
Samsung’s midrange M-series was upgraded earlier this year, and we got our hands on the Galaxy M53 after covering its A-series counterpart a couple of months ago. We did say ‘upgrade’ in the previous sentence, but is it really? Let’s go over the specs to see where it stands on paper
Samsung recently announced a new mid-range device in its Galaxy M series, dubbed as the Galaxy M53 5G. It is the successor of the Galaxy M52 5G and offers an improved design over its predecessor.
The Samsung Galaxy M53 5G is placed in the highly competitive ₹30,000 segment and takes on popular devices from companies like OnePlus, Xiaomi and Realme that offer similar features.
The main highlights of the Galaxy M53 5G include the Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, the 108MP primary camera and the 5,000mAh battery. The device also comes with 5G support, making it future proof as far as connectivity is concerned.
I’ve been using the Galaxy M53 5G for a couple of weeks now and here’s my full review of the latest mid-range smartphone from Samsung.
