Samsung Galaxy A52 5G to feature a 6.5-inch full-HD+ Super AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate
Samsung Galaxy A52, Samsung Galaxy A52 5G, and Samsung Galaxy A72 smartphones debuted in March. Out of the three, the Samsung Galaxy A52 and Samsung Galaxy A72 made their way to the Indian market in the same month. However, the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G is yet to make its entry in India. A fresh report suggests that Samsung has started to build the firmware for Galaxy A52 5G for the Indian market, hinting that the launch may not be too far.
Sammobile reports that the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G will launch in India soon. The exact launch date is not known, but the phone's firmware is under development suggesting imminent launch. The price of the handset is reported to be approximately Rs. 5,000 more than the Samsung Galaxy A52, due to the upgrades in processor, display, and connectivity. To recall, the Samsung Galaxy A52 is priced in India at Rs. 26,499 for the base 6GB RAM + 128GB storage variant and Rs. 27,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage option. This means, if this leak holds any weight, the 5G model may be priced starting above Rs. 30,000. There is no clarity on an exact launch date for the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G.
In the global market, the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G was made available in Awesome Black, Awesome Blue, Awesome Violet, and Awesome White colour options. The same choices should likely be offered in the Indian market as well.
