【I Want To Be The First Guy】

At its Galaxy Unpacked event on I Want To Be The First GuyWednesday, Samsung revealed a new lineup of midrange phones: the Galaxy A52, A52 5G, and A72.

Overall, these devices share similar specs, but there are, however, a few differences worth noting. For starters, both A52 models and the A72 have quad-camera setups that include a 64-megapixel main sensor, 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 5-megapixel macro lens. But while the A52 has a 5-megapixel depth-sensing camera as its fourth sensor, the A72 packs an 8-megapixel telephoto lens.

The A72 also comes equipped with Samsung's Space Zoom technology, which combines software-based AI-powered digital zoom and optic zoom. That means you can zoom in up to 30x on a subject. The A52 and A52 5G, on the other hand, only offer up to 10x digital zoom.

Both the A52 and A52 5G feature the same 6.5-inch display (407 ppi) and 90Hz refresh rate. Meanwhile, the A72 is a bit bigger with a 6.7-inch display (394 ppi) and a higher 120Hz refresh rate. All three phones also include a 32-megapixel hole-punch selfie camera.

Under the hood, the A52 and A72 are powered by Qualcomm 720 chipsets, while the A52 5G runs on a 750G chip. Each phone also offers up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage, depending on the model. But there's also a microSD card slot for expandable memory up to 1TB.

The A52 and A52 5G have a considerable 4,500mAh battery — the A72 bumps that up slightly to 5,000mAh. Samsung claims you'll be able to squeeze two days' worth of battery life out of either phone, but of course, that all depends on usage.

If a lot of these specs sound familiar, it's because Samsung has pulled a lot of them from its Galaxy S21 flagships. But seeing as how those devices start at a pricey $800, the A-Series is an ideal alternative for those who want top-tier features at a lower price. Last year's A51 and A71 ranged between $400 and $600.

Now before you get too excited, keep in mind that pricing and availability for all three phones have yet to be announced in the U.S. Still, given how affordable last year's models were, it's likely these won't break the bank either.
