The Galaxy A53 is actually a good mid-range phone, but Samsung has once again used one of its in-house SoCs, and this doesn't do the company any favors.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-Galaxy-A53-Once-again-the-Exynos-SoC-fails-to-impress.627743.0.html
I agree, I bought one on launch day
The stuttering on simple web scrolling got so annoying I ended up going back to my 2 year old phone I was upgrading from
I sent it back to Samsung saying it wasn't good enough but they sent it back saying it passes all QC check and there is nothing wrong with it.
Do yourself a favour and stay away from this, the lag is very noticeable
I just use it for camera and web/emails/slack
Even these tasks are too demanding for it to be a snappy performance phone, and you end up waiting for the phone to respond.
Trying to take a photo of my kids to capture the moment failed so many times, it drove me to fail back to my lightning fast (aging) Poco F2
All the cheapies want everything...say a Twitter user crying one of the A series dropped the SD Card Tray!!! Why should they get it when flagships dont?????don't?????? About time to save the good stuff for the people that pay the most money
I owned a A53 and the performance is unacceptable! Extremely leggy and freezing randomly even after software update! A52s with Snapdragon 778 is far superior!
