Samsung Galaxy A53 5G specifications
Samsung Galaxy A53 5G sports a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED Infinity-O display coupled with a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone is powered by the Samsung Exynos 1280 processor.
Now, considering the fact that the smartphone is priced above Rs 30,000, Samsung could have offered a powerful Snapdragon processor instead of the Exynos SoC. The smartphone will be competing with devices like iQoo 9 SE which comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor and offers far better value for your money.
The smartphone operates on the Samsung One UI 4.1 based on the Android 12 operating system. The smartphone includes 8GB RAM along with 128GB internal storage that can be further expanded up to 1TB via a microSD card.
