Tough Competition For Galaxy A52s In India?

The Samsung Galaxy A52s will be launching as a premium mid-range smartphone. But the segment in which this device is landing is dominated by value flagship smartphones. In fact, a bunch of gaming smartphones are also available under Rs. 40,000 backed with 5G network connectivity which is one of the highlights of the Galaxy A52s as well.

The major competition Samsung gets is from Chinese brands such as Xiaomi, Realme, OnePlus, iQOO, and Vivo. The Galaxy A52s has no doubt a decent spec sheet. But, with options that offer a Snapdragon 8XX series processor compared to the Snapdragon 778G SoC; it would be hard to guess how successful the Galaxy A52s sales would be in the Indian market.

We do expect some good responses from the audience, specifically the ones who look out for non-Chinese smartphones and have limited smartphone brands as an option. In our opinion, Samsung will get some solid competition from the current chart-toppers in the sub Rs. 40,000 segment in India.
