Samsung today launched the online-only Galaxy M52 5G in the Philippines.

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G

Like the A52s, but with a bigger screen and larger battery, but downgraded features

Basically, this is similar to the Galaxy A52s 5G 128GB version in terms of specs, but it has a bigger 6.7-inch display and a larger 5,000mAh battery. However, Samsung omitted the IP67 water and dust resistance rating, In-Display fingerprint reader, OIS on the main camera, stereo speakers, and Bluetooth 5.2 on the Samsung device with the same price.

Fortunately, the device still highlights the fast 2.4GHz 6nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G 5G octa-core processor. It is also paired with 8GB RAM, 128GB expandable storage, 25W fast charging, and Dolby Atmos audio.

This also has an option to activate an extra 4G of virtual RAM. It will use a portion of the internal storage of the phone to make this happen.

The rest of the specs are found below.
