Samsung Galaxy A72 Review

By Roydon Cerejo (Jun 16, 2021)
  • Good
  • Eye-catching design, IP rating
  • Stereo speakers sound good
  • Good battery life
  • Vibrant AMOLED display
  • Bad
  • Not great value for money
  • Preinstalled bloatware
  • Average telephoto camera performance

The Samsung Galaxy A52 and Galaxy A72 duo have been in the market for a few months. We've already tested the Galaxy A52, and it's now the turn of the Galaxy A72. It's priced roughly Rs. 7,000 higher than the Galaxy A52, and for that extra money you get a slightly larger display, larger battery, and a telephoto camera.

Samsung Galaxy A72 Summary

The Samsung Galaxy A72 features a fresh new design, similar to what we saw with the Galaxy A52. The 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display has a full-HD+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate, and supports HDR playback. The Samsung Galaxy A72 has an in-display fingerprint sensor, but I found it to be very inconsistent with authentication and a bit sluggish too.

The Snapdragon 720G SoC is quite underpowered compared to the competition at this price, but it's still powerful enough to handle Android 11. Games ran really well too and titles such as Genshin Impact had very playable framerates, with just some mild stutter intermittently. The Samsung Galaxy A72 has a similar camera setup as the Galaxy A52, except that the depth camera has been swapped for a more useful 8-megapixel telephoto camera. Photos captured by the main camera were generally above average under good light. The telephoto camera captured strictly average photos.

If the Samsung name and features such as the IP rating and stereo speakers are what drew you towards the Galaxy A72, I'd suggest buying the Galaxy A52 instead and saving some money.
