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

Reviews with images
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.
