Samsung’s Galaxy A series has come a long way — it used to be the slightly-bad midranger that we wouldn’t recommend. Last year, however, the Galaxy A52 was a pretty killer device for its price. It had a charming design, a very decent camera, and pretty solid performance.
Needless to say, we are pretty excited to see what the Galaxy A53 5G will have to offer!
We’ve already seen renders of the Galaxy A53 5G design — computer-generated images of what the phone is to look like, and a low-quality photo from its TENAA listing.

But in some good news — we have heard that the Galaxy A53 5G will be powered by an Exynos processor with AMD graphics just like the Galaxy S22 5G. Supposedly, the A series processor will be called Exynos 1200, indicating its spot to be lower in the food chain than the Exynos 2200, which is expected to be in the S22 series. Early speculation puts the Exynos 1200 on par with the upper-midrange Snapdragon 778 5G. So, we are optimistically expecting the Galaxy A53 5G to be the same solid-performing midranger as the Galaxy A52 was.
When is the Galaxy A53 coming out?
Leaks about the A53 have started to ramp up this January and certifications have begun popping up — a telltale sign that Samsung is getting the phone ready for prime time.
Either that, or we will get a major drop of the S22, Galaxy A, and the Galaxy Tab S8 in a single event this February, which would definitely… light up the cold month!
