    Only one caveat.
    The camera is brilliant if you know how to use it properlyProcessor is more than enough for day to day activities. Occasional slowdowns can usually be fixed by a quick performance refresh built into Samsung's settingsSoftware is wonderful as always! Samsung's promise of 5 years of support is very generous. I'm able to run the latest version of one UI with no slowdowns and plenty of widgets and customizations.Multitasking is a breeze, too.Sound quality from the speakers is surprisingly loud and clear.The only thingAnd the ONLY thing that I don't like about this is the Exynos chip. Yes, it's great for a lot, but I really wish Samsung didn't try to push it on this model. I really wish they went with an upgraded Snapdragon chip like the A52s.Overall, the phone is perfect for almost everything.

    This phone is a upgrade from my old Galaxy A-50 so I will be comparing it to that phone .
    1) Screen is pretty Good , Good colors , vivid text . But the A535G screen is totally washed out and useless in outdoor full sunlight even at 80% brightness
    2) Speakers is where this phone shines , rich sound for a phone very nice compared all other phones I have owned.
    3) The A-53 has a duel sim tray , you can use 2 sims or 1 sim and a sd memory card , one or the other but not both . If You want extra storage then it is a one sim card only phone
    4) no headphone jack
    5) Android 12 Samsung UI interface
    6) Bloatware galore spend hours uninstalling/disabling crapwear
    7) battery life is average at best and no included charger
    8) worked well on my Consumer Cellar network , plug and play upgrade and 5G is available and working
    9) Bluetooth is much better compared to my old A-50
    Final thoughts good budget phone especially if You can get it at the $300 range calls are crisp and clear but unless You need 5G I see little incentive to upgrade if Your on a Galaxy A-50 or above
    10) Fingerprint reader works very well even thru a screen protector

    * Special Edit * Many if not all recent Samsung phones no longer come with the usb wall charger. You will not get it in the box.

    Coming from an A7 2017 model, this phone is incrementally great. Its not a huge difference but the main issue today is really OS and security updates end thus forcing a new phone. Because of using Samsung SmartTags, I likely cannot use a custom rom. If it wasn't for that, the A7 2017 really isn't that far from this. That's something I can now test.

    The A53 has a surprisingly better speaker. Really loud and sounds like it's coming from the front instead of the bottom where it is. Actually, seems they also use the call speaker as well to output sound which is on the top.

    The camera is a bit better of course. It's good enough. I'm no camera snob or you better be buying the most expensive phones if you ask me. Has macro function. Also does a good job focusing.

    The fingerprint reader is about the same once enabling it to always show on the always on display (AOD) and I set AOD to always show as well.

    The screen is good. There's no wild difference other than marketing.

    Battery seems about the same in limited testing (my A7 still gets about 48 hours with AOD enabled and some use). The battery saving special modes can add up to days of battery life mostly on standby. So in theory up to 7 days. The A7 has this feature and its great for no power emergencies. Looks like a bit differently implemented on the A53 but still have to properly test it. I know for a fact that Android devices can last up to 12 days on standard batteries as I have one that does. A much bigger screen, etc at 7 days standby is wonderful. My numbers for sleep drainage show it might even make it without the battery saver.

    But, the A53 battery will take some weeks or months to properly see how the battery does. Interesting, point AOD here has no auto off (and on) while down or in a pocket which is crazy. That instantly saves battery and is crazy they no longer have it. Instead they have schedule so you can at least get a partial worse effect of it at night when sleeping or tap to show, etc. The A7 thus gets me only total 3-4% drain at night even with AOD enabled. So far, the A53 with AOD always enabled sees 3% for 7 hours overnight. Looks like 4% per 8 hours. This is for my setup. Your's may differ.

    Actually, one of the best improvements appears to be the cellular connection. It appears to be 2-3 bars stronger than the A7. Since the A7 was typically at 1 bar for me, it would often not receive calls, delayed messages, etc. So far, I'm receiving everything. This was a main issue I always had with the A7. Easily exceeding everything else the phone offers.

    By the way, I'm using the A7 wall charger here. It's 15 watts. That's fine. The A53 just charges 10 watts slower than the maximum. I see no need for now to spend more for that. It just charges a bit slower. As I edited in earlier, don't expect Samsung include them now with their phones. The A53 does not come with one for anyone who thinks it does. Neither does their more expensive models this year.

    So far not seeing any issues. I'm happy with it. But, there's far too many features anymore. Takes a lot of time. I'd still be almost as happy though with the A7 if it wasn't trashed by the phone manufacturers like they are. But, if you need a phone, this one is a great choice. I highly doubt that will change here. You also get up to 4 years OS upgrades and 5 years security which increases the value of this phone over many manufacturers.

    Bug: AOD stuck at full brightness in the dark thus consuming more battery. SOLVED: The eye comfort shield (what they call the software blue screen filter for night time that makes the screen yellowish) causes AOD to have problems dimming when both are running.

    Bought this phone new in October of 2022 for around $300 for my younger daughter. The phone is still in excellent condition and is working flawlessly. I pick this over the IPhone and Samsung's S series because it supported SD cards. My daughters phone has a 256gb SD card which cost us about $40 at the time. I've had to back it up and free up space on that SD card a couple times since then because the daughter is constantly filling up the memory. Other than it slightly laggy with some gaming apps, Netflix, Disney+, and Youtube videos look clear and nice on the the screen. The battery seems to last for days.
