Samsung Galaxy A33 5G


The Galaxy A33 5G is roughly the same size as the A33, though it shrinks the display to 6.4” and the refresh rate to 90 Hz. It is still a Super AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution. This is a massive improvement over the A32 5G, which had a 60 Hz LCD with HD+ resolution. It’s a better display than what the new Galaxy A23 and M33 have to offer as well.

Moving on to the camera, the main module houses a 48 MP sensor and an f/1.8 lens with OIS. The ultra wide module here has an 8 MP sensor, the front facing camera drops down to 13 MP (though notice that it’s inside a notch rather than a punch hole). As for the auxiliary cameras on the back, the macro keeps the 5 MP resolution, the depth sensor is down to 2 MP.

The rest is the same as on the A53 5G or to put it another way, better than the A32 5G. That one also had a 5,000 mAh battery, but with only 15W charging it needed nearly 2 and a half hours for a full charge. Samsung says that the new phones will go 2 days before needing to be plugged in. Both the A33 5G and A55 5G come in two memory configurations: 6/128 GB and 8/256 GB, both also have microSD slots for up to 1 TB more.

Both phones are rated IP67 for dust and water resistance. They also feature Gorilla Glass 5 on the front to protect their displays. The Galaxy A53 5G and A33 5G launch with Android 12 and One UI 4.1. Samsung guarantees that they will receive four Android OS updates and up to five years of security patches.
