The Galaxy A53 5G is Samsung's new budget phone for 2022, but do you really need to upgrade if you already have the A52 5G? Samsung's mobile business is best known for its flagship devices. The Galaxy S series represents the best of what Samsung can offer in a smartphone. The Galaxy Z lineup houses the company's latest foldable devices. The old Galaxy Note family was a power-user's dream.
But flagships aren't the only phones Samsung is interested in. Just as important for Samsung — if not more so — is the Galaxy A series. Galaxy A phones pack big specs and impressive features into devices with affordable price tags.
