Nice looking, with a great screen and enough specs to do a day's work.
Not long ago, we saw an A53 5G on these pages. Samsung has taken to using the same naming conventions across its A and M series, so we now have an M53 5G right on cue.
The M series is typically less expensive than the A series; it's for those looking for a good Samsung phone without breaking the bank, though Samsung aims for "Gen Z."
The M53 5G is designed in the same manner as many other Samsung phones. It's flat with slightly curved corners, thin, and light. The back is a stylized polycarbonate that looks nice, especially in the olive green tone I received for review. It catches the light and bounces it back at you. The camera square is prominent, as it always is, and there's nothing else to distract from the back except the Samsung logo.
The fingerprint sensor is located on the power button and functions properly. The 3.5mm jack does not return on this device. However, it does have a microSDXC card slot. The battery has a capacity of 5,000mAh and charges at a rate of 25W. Because there is no charger in the box.
There's a vibrant, vibrantly colored display. It's 6.7 inches in size, but it has the brilliance of a Samsung display. It has a refresh rate of 120Hz (no adaptive business). I couldn't get rid of the Glance option on this phone, so whenever I woke up the screen, I got different content; in the process, I was treated to a splendid feast of color. The screen is also completely sun-friendly.
The M53 is powered by the 6nm MediaTek MT6877 Dimensity 900, which is found in a number of phones in this price range these days. It comes with 6GB or 8GB of RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. This phone is reasonably fast and well suited to daily tasks, and it can handle some gaming without overheating. The performance is adequate for the specifications. To provide a smooth ride, Android 12 and Samsung's excellent OneUI 4.1 work in tandem. There's a lot of bloatware that's completely unworthy of this brand.
The cameras have a 108MP primary lens, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, a 2MP macro lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. The front-facing camera is, as expected, a 32MP shooter. The cameras are adequate for a phone in this price range. The camera app includes all of the features found on more expensive phones, so you'll have plenty to play with and video to shoot.
The M53 5G is pitted against the Nord CE 2 from OnePlus. The two have nearly identical specs, with only a few differences in the cameras and battery size due to the smaller screen size. There is also a distinction in charging technology.
