As for the manufacturing materials, they are plastic, unlike Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 ProIt is true that plastic lacks the luxury touch that the glass design enjoys, but it is more practical and more shock-resistant than glass, especially since the phone is tightly manufactured and the materials used in it are of high quality.

Far from the language of numbers, the rear camera provided more than wonderful shooting samples, saturated and sharp colors, rich details, and more than wonderful isolation. There is also a night shooting mode that combines 12 frames into one bright image with little noise, and the OIS optical stabilization helps to maintain the stability of objects during Night photography, etc.

The front camera was set with a 32-Megapixel resolution with an f / 2.2 lens slot, and it also supports 4K video shooting. As for the actual performance, it provided a performance no less than the rear camera and is considered one of the best in this category.

Battery and charging

The battery capacity increased from 4000 mAh in the Galaxy A51 to 4500 mAh in the Galaxy A52, without increasing the weight of the phone significantly (17 grams only), which is an achievement by Samsung.

It is true that the phone supports fast charging up to 25 watts, but unfortunately Samsung attached the phone box with a 15 watt charger only on the pretext of reducing the cost, so it will reach from 0% to 34% only within half an hour and it will take about two hours to reach from 0% to 100%.
