Samsung Galaxy A52 Review: IP67 Meets Super AMOLED 90Hz

## Design and Build: A Major Upgrade  The Galaxy A52 was a significant upgrade in the A-series, introducing IP67 water and dust resistance — a feature usually reserved for flagship phones. The design moved to a flat display with a hole-punch camera, and the back panel featured a clean, minimalist look with a rectangular camera housing. The phone felt premium with its matte plastic back that resisted fingerprints. Gorilla Glass 5 protected the front, and the stereo speakers (with Dolby Atmos) were a welcome addition. ## Key Features Under the Hood The Galaxy A52 offered features that were rare in the mid-range segment. Here is a quick look at the standout specs: - **Display:** 6.5-inch Super AMOLED, 90Hz.
