Wireless module on the phone has a defect and disconnects wifi randomly
I purchased the Samsung Galaxy M53 mobile to replace my Motorola Moto phone and it's my first Samsung phone.Pros:The phone is really very solid and great body. Display is very bright and crystal clear. Battery life is great. Although it takes some time to charge but last really long which is a great plus.Cons:I have been having this random problem with missing alerts, messages and Internet connected services and found that there is a bug with the wireless module which causes it's wifi to get disconnected randomly. In my family I have 6 other mobiles and only this product experience this problem. I am a Network engineer myself so know for sure my wifi is not at fault as I work from home and would notice any issue immediately with network. I am requesting the seller to please assist me in replacing the phone as I seems to have lost so much business and work due to the bug. I will not get internet unless I notice the phone is disconnected from internet and toggle the wifi off/on again. Other than that apps are really a problem. If I am investing my money in a phone, I would want to install my choice of applications but the problem is I am unable to install Samsung apps which is not right.Other than this problem, I have not noticed any other issue.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's worth the money and a cracking phone. U need 2 buy charger as well. NO Wireless Charging.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 July 2022
Colour: BrownSize Name: 8GBVerified Purchase
UPDATED. Some irritations crop up but not enough to drop a star. Also typos / sense.

I almost never give 5 stars BTW.

Where do I start?

What you get then mostly software issues - they rock on this phone.

To be clear: in the box is the phone, on top of a little box containing a USB C cable, a SIM tray pin and papers (too small to read I found). NO CHARGER PLUG OR CASE!

I have bought a total of 3 Samsung 45W PD Power Adapters (£40ish), they work fine and quickly!
For ease I now use seperate ones for phone / tablet.
Various listings for the chargers, available in black or white, I bought the 45W to future proof, 25W would probably be fine.
Also numerous cases / wallet cases for this model - cheap enough.

NB 2 issues with USB port - Fast charging USB 2.0 OnTheGo - NOT USB 3 fully featured - so external drive / memory yes, but no external monitor.

You need the £9ish adapter for headphones etc, but bluetooth is fine. I use one for an external mic - Google LiveTranscribe is patchy with internal mic's.

It has NFC etc, but no Wireless Induction Loop, USB charging only.

That said. charging only takes around 30 minutes from 40ish percent up to 85 - standard setting for longer battery life - charge still lasts a day or 2 for me - light use.

One charger for all devices - very handy.

Even in high temps recently, I have not noticed significant heating and use a battery app to monitor this (have done for years). BUT I do use a thin heat dissipating case in summer; armoured or wallet rest of the time.

The box is: 7 1/4 by 3 3/4 by 1 1/4 inches, 820 by 95 by 30 mm; arrived in an M1 cardboard envelope.

WONDERFUL app called "Smart Switch" - install on old & new phones, connect THE 2 PHONES via USB cable and it saves HOURS of mucking around and no wireless needed.

Unless your old phone won't let you (I only needed to set the USB port to transfer in my case), otherwise you need both devices on the same WiFi hotspot and it will take around an hour; doesn't transfer apps, but does trigger downloading to new phone from Play Store.

I don't think it is exclusive to Samsung devices though.
Also useful when I replaced my tablet, I copied from phone to tablet.

I DID struggle to transfer backups from some apps, Shopping List in particular, as the ...Android/data/... path seemed to be blank.
SOLUTION: use a different File manager app!
Have had similar problem on other devices so usually use two apps.

Otherwise just use the old trick of emailing backups to yourself, use a null SIM in old phone, tether to new for emailing - NOT for WiFi transfer though, you need a point independent of BOTH devices for that.

I'm still working through all the menus etc: something new almost every time.
Techno Junkie's delight.

Wonderful widget shows memory & RAM in use - so far only uses half the 8GB, so it blitzes most tasks; saves checking storage capacity when looking to download a large game.

I added a 256GB storage card - haven't needed the extra capacity yet.

I ended up with the brown phone - looks more like antique copper, different & I like it.

Knock code when at home! ... Double tap to lock / unlock screen, no need to muck around with fingerprint, use pattern or password / PIN.
Just wish I could use a magnetic cover like the tablet (auto wake-sleep) - no need to tap.

I assume it's Android 12 - you can do access the power button functions via the screen power button by dropping the notification menu; only need to use power key for turning on and fingerprint if you use that.
Also drop down menu to to adjust brightness.

EXTENSIVE settings for handicaps (Hearing/Speech/arthritic fingers).
But I could not find the Google Live Transcribe icon, I forget what it's called but the OS adds a 4th button on the software navigation bar, you can add others to it as well as reversing the buttons for us lefties!

STILL no widget for messages - SO annoying when that disappeared, in Android 7 I think it was.

Yes widgets drain the battery but SO much easier.

It's like I've had it for years - sits on its stand and works!!!!!!!

Everything is 2 Step Verification these days so having a reliable phone is essential - this one is definitely that, albeit not flashy or with high end features. Also for Authenticator apps increasingly.

You are paying for the brand mostly - so far it is worth it for me.
Software updates monthly, Samsung Store for their own apps and others, but no way to buy gift vouchers so I still buy from Google Play only.

Now upgraded to Android 13, the interface is not enamoured of Nova Launcher, but works with it.
I'm just used to it. Samsung UI now at 5.1, still not used its' launcher though.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice phone
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2023
Colour: BrownSize Name: 8GBVerified Purchase
Upgraded from my 3 year old Galaxy M31 which, to be fair, is still a pretty good model but the battery was starting to drain quite quickly and although it could theoretically be replaced it gave me a reason to get a new phone altogether. This M53 is definitely quicker and has a nice display, on a par with the M31 and is a fair bit lighter as well as a fair bit slippier so a case is a must. Priced well on an Amazon 'special' presumably because of the colour - all the other colour options are currently quite a bit more cost- wise yet this 'brown' one is actually a nice copper colour and when the case is fitted it's moot anyway. Overall I'm pretty happy with my new toy.

Near impossible to find mobile with camera greater than 64MP on the market... this is 108MP. Samsung provides another M Series mobile with current features and price value. If you want a mobile with impressive camera, this is one of them... Apple iphone quit mobile device cold war stopping at 48MP... can't focus up close & personal to the moon!

This is, in my opinion the real deal! I've muddled through with various cheaper copies. Love this phone's battery life, camera, speed etc. My only irritation is it shows low signal for my Sky mobile sim. I'm using 2 sims. Sky & Tesco (both use the o2 network; Tesco mobile always displays a far better signal strength. However, generally have no problem with quality of calls on Sky mobile. Love this phone do much more than the ulefone and other copies that don't Come close.

Il telefono è arrivato con 3 giorni di ritardo ...succede ogni tanto.
Ho scelto la versione spagnola visto che ha 8GB di RAM e 128GB capacità della memoria
contri i 6GB di RAM della versione italiana.
Sul versante delle funzionalità a questo Samsung Galaxy M53 non manca davvero nulla. A cominciare dal modulo 5G
che permette un trasferimento dati e una navigazione in internet eccellente,
passando per la connettività Wi-fi e il GPS, dimensione schermo ‎6,7 Pollici ed una risoluzione‎1080x2408 Pixel
La fotocamera di 108 megapixel permette di scattare foto di alta qualità
con una risoluzione di 12000 x 9000 pixel
e di registrare video in 4K alla risoluzione di 3840x2160 pixel
Colore, nitidezza, design sono tutto impeccabile.Velocità e rapidità di utilizzo.
Ottima autonomia della batteria, veloce il suo caricamento.
Screanshot da attivare dalla tendina delle notifiche senza dover premere il solito volume giù più tasto home.

Samsung di nuovo in qualsiasi momento !!!

Die Lieferung war wirklich schnell. Es sind auch definitiv Original Samsung Teile.

Es ist tatsächlich nur ein Datenkabel zum Datentransfer vom alten Handy zum neuen Handy. Das habe ich aber auch vorher hier gelesen in einem der Kommentare.

Für den Preis ist das aber okay.

Die "spanische" Version dieses Smartphone wurde schnell geliefert. Das Telefon macht einen sehr wertigen Eindruck. Die Sim- und Speicherkarten lassen sich problemlos einsetzen. Der Datentransfer vom alten Samsung auf das neue funktioniert mit der Smart Switch App problemlos. An den seitlichen Fingerabdrucksensor muss man sich gewöhnen. Farbe, Schärfe, Ton alles Tadellos...

5.0 out of 5 stars Ottima durata della batteria e reattività generale
Reviewed in Italy on 26 March 2023
Colour: Khaki GreenSize Name: 8GBVerified Purchase
Il telefono è arrivato entro i tempi concordati e mi sembra che sia la versione UK. Per me è anche meglio visto che ha 8GB di RAM contri i 6GB della versione italiana (assolutamente inspiegabile).
L'ho preso per mia moglia che veniva da un S8 ormai al limite.
Appena arrivato il telefono , gli ho fatto fare l'aggiornamento quindi ho provato il software in ultima versione ad oggi disponibile (installato a marzo 2023, patch di febbraio). Il telefono è reattivo , piacevole da utilizzare e con un buon schermo. Ho un S23 Ultra personale ed un S22 di lavoro ed il M53 ha un software praticamente molto simile e quindi di ottimo livello. La gestione RAM è buona:praticamente, come si vede dall'immagine, di base non consuma oltre i 4GB con qualche applicazione già in utilizzo quindi gli 8GB daranno ampio respiro man mano che le applicazioni saranno installate ed utilizzate.
Non ho fatto caso a quanta memoria flash fosse disponibile ex novo. I dati indicati in immagine di quasi 32GB comprendono anche la sincronizzazione della galleria dal vecchio telefono tramite OneDrive. Comunque una buona parte di questi GB è consumata dal sistema operativo e dalle app installate.
La macchina fotografica la devo provare per bene. Non mi aspetto grandi cose ma spero in qualcosa di decente . La batteria è più che buona: coon l'utilizzo attuale arriva ad 1 giorno e mezzo ma ovviamente dipende dall'utilizzo che se ne fa.
In questi giorni è uscito il M54, sicuramente sarà un pò avanti a questo ma il gap di prezzo è importante al momento e M53 risulta essere un bel compromesso per avere un telefono scattante ed aggiornato all'ultima versione di Android 13 e OneUI 5.1
