Thank you for the advice. I'm really not that phone savvy. But listening to what you said about the 2. I am going to go with the A53. I just use my phone for text, calls, games, social media. I think A53 will work well for me. Thank you so much for taking time to explain to people who don't understand the difference.

No Micro-SD card slot kills it for me. I'd take the A53 over the S21FE, despite its obvious disadvantages. Actually, I bought one to replace my A71 5G.

@@amritarajamani Funny thing about that. My laziness got the better of me. I purchased the a53 when I discovered a problem with my a71's charging. I managed to get fast charging working again, so I'm delaying switching phones for now. The a53 is just sitting there collecting dust at the moment. It's there when I'm ready to switch, but I'm dragging my feet on that. The a71 and the a53 are similar enough that I will not likely notice much of a difference between them, except for the lack of a headphone jack and better speaker(s).

Bought the A53. I am not disappointed. One thing I have noticed however is that the "fast charging" from the 50%+ range seems to hover around 18 watts. Haven't tried it yet from a 0% brick, so it could be a full 25 watts starting from zero, but also I almost never let my battery get down to zero. Also should note that the phone comes with "RAM Plus" already running at 4 GB of allocation of the 128 GB storage memory... it doesn't act like 6 GB plus 4 GB extra RAM, but kind of like a paging file for your 6 GB of RAM to use. This is a plus for those who switch between a lot of apps that are not performance intensive, but could be unnoticeable or even a detriment to those running numerous instances of various hungry apps like Asphalt 9 or video encoding.

[@Philminator]

Great video. Something viewers should be aware of if it matters to you, is that in this video you will not see how much crisper / nicer the S21 FE panel looks compared to the A53 which still looks great. I went to Best Buy, and had both phones on the same brightness, color settings, etc side by side, and it was noticeable how much nicer the S21 FE panel looked. For me it doesn't matter because the A53 still looks incredible, and is much cheaper than the S21 FE. It's not as powerful, but I'm looking to buy an A53 as an MP3 player, so I can preserve my iPhone a bit longer.

[@flockelocke2297]

My Huawei Mate 20 Pro is broken and had noted the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE and also the S20 FE because the difference between the two is not that big. Actually, the first thing I had in mind (because of the shop) was the A52, because it's not bad in itself and I don't have to pay anything extra for the model, then I somehow thought I'd rather pay something extra for a better device and googled a bit. Added to my notes were the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7. It shouldn't be more expensive than the Pixel 7 and I don't think I can find anything better in the price range, but I can't decide between these products. They are all fast and the display and the battery are very important to me, so that I can manage a day without any problems. Maybe someone has an opinion, suggestion or other smartphone options?

I've used both because my friend has the a53 and I didn't check the camera which was a mistake and I bought it because it was fast and the audio volume/bass beat my old S9 but the camera sucks and she lied. The 21 FE blows the A53 away. I am going to the store tomorrow and getting the s21 fe. It was only $100 more because I switched carriers. It's worth it to me.

[@rakhuramai]

How has your experience been so far?

[@dls4705]

A significant aspect that was omitted in the review is that the S21 FE has a physical proximity sensor while the A53 has an unreliable virtual proximity sensor.

[@NotNowLater]

When a person is trying to make a point in a video or article they tend to leave stuff like that out.

[@jcblocka7477]

[@dls4705]

@@jcblocka7477 It kind of does. You realize that sensor is critical only when you don't have it and need to deal with a display that behaves erratically sometimes. I also don't like walking around like a peasant with a lit screen while talking on the phone or accidentally tapping on the dialpad during a conversation.

[@TheDarkPacific]

@@dls4705 I have an A53 and the screen doesn't stay lit during a call. Don't know where to you got that info from.

[@dls4705]

@@TheDarkPacific From direct experience talking on that phone and watching friends talking on their A53. I said it's unreliable, I didn't say it never works. It works if you always press the phone on your face exactly in the way that it expects you to (a wide area of the top edge of the touchscreen needs to make firm physical contact with the skin). It will not work if the phone isn't pressed hard enough or if the screen touches on a hat or a hood that you're wearing. The hardware proximity sensor will work 100% reliably all the time even if the phone isn't pressed against the skin. It will actually detect obstacles from around 1 cm away. That sensor is also used by the firmware to detect "in-pocket" or "screen/face down" conditions.

[@djarthurlooby]

The a53 has been sluggish and slow but a fix seems to be nova launcher instead the Samsung launcher. It makes the phone pretty fast in most things. Also using navigation bar instead gestures seems to be much smoother. Also using google keyboard instead Samsung's keyboards works better. P.S. what seems to be one of the main issues is that the phone actually out of the box is only set to 4gb ram. U should change that under device care memory after u select 6GB Ram phone will restart and the setting stays like that.

The whole point of an FE model is that they can resell old spec phone for cheaper and capture the crowd of people who dont need the latest and greatest but want a good phone. Releasing the 22FE at 599 is literally shooting yourself in the foot at the start of the finish line and undercutting all the other options you offer with your own product.

The samsung i wanted 2 or 3 yrs ago wasn't in the metro i was in and they talked me into the lg. But, one coworker says the phones that start with an S are better then the ones that start with an A. I forget the reason he gave. The other coworker said i should get the other because as an existing customer, near $50 to upgrade is better than near $200. Other reasons, too, but that was the main one. Reviews i've read for both are not very helpful, but after this video i am kinda leaning to the a53. One thing i really don't like is how much taller phones seem to be getting. Soon they'll be the size of an iPad. Who has a pocket big enough to fit those? 😁

[@SeoWoojin55]

Stop the cap man, Failed Edition really? Its certainly one of the best phones in its price. I wouldnt even touch that Moto because of the dismal software and software updates. Do not even mention the cameras to me. Both the S21 FE and A53 are miles better than that Moto phone. Displays, performance, battery, cameras, design, the Moto doesnt even come close to both Samsung phones. And both Samsung phones start out at 128GB and 256GB, so its more than enough for me especially when it is fasf storage. The water resistance is there too for the Samsu gs while the Moto doesnt even have anything clos3 to that. Based on your comments here, you like trolling around comment sections concerning Samsung phones. Nothing even comes close to Samsung at this point. The Oneplus was good, but it fell off really bad because of its parent company.

i bought the s21 instead, i don't care about the micro sd because the storage is already massive and it has wireless charging in case if the usb plug of the phone becomes unusable after many years just like it happened to my razer phone 2.,

[@WildEKyode]

S21 fe has plastic on the back only sides are aluminum, samsung a53 has plastic all around bro

[@johnk8091]

You said that they both have wireless charging ? My A53 5G does not have wireless charging - I have tried on several of my wireless chargers and it does not respond

[@naturegirl2110]

Do you have a case on the phone while trying to wireless charge? The case my be blocking it

[@carlostorres8767]

Well it is already June so definitely A53 5G is not a competition for s21 FE meaning the price of both already dropped so go for s21 FE instead without hesitating lol!

S21fe has way more features and you can buy 1 at boost mobile for 299

[@8elionadvancing884]

consider putting the same wallpaper on both phones when you do a comparison because the wallpaper on the fe does not do it justice whatsoever... that's a very dull wallpaper ...where the other one is a very vibrant clorful wallpaper that showcases its vibrance. at this point, I know nothing about the screen on the FE because it doesn't do it justice ...it doesn't show me what its capable of.

[@gmemo4449]

The Exynos is garbage compared to the Snapdragon, why I would never buy the A53. At least here in the US the S21 FE has the Snapdragon which makes it a better buy. If someone can find the A53 at a cheaper price than buy it. A shame some markets/countries don’t have the Snapdragon variant. Thanks 👍

I recently got the s21 fe 5g, previously had a note 20 and its a major drop the 120hz refresh rate is unusable, there is almost a constant lag on the phone when opening apps, switching between apps and even just dragging the task bar down. South Africa

[@Yes-uq4qq]

The refresh rate has nothing to do with how snappy the phone is, it just makes it smoother when scrolling and things with motion

How is it mid ranger, a53, a73 are mid rangers. S21 fe is a flagship phone with flagship camera and processor.

S21 FE is a lower end flagship whereas A73 and A53 are higher end midrange phones

The midrangers are the a series m series and f series the flagships are the s series and as the s21fe is a s series it's a flagship 💁‍♂️

[@alwayswatching4677]

Strange how with every single phone review on all of KZbin not one single review says anything about the vibration of any unit for example I no for a fact the the sound and vibration suck on the s20 fe and the s21 fe and on the a51 up to the a53 the sound and vibration are superior to the s20 fe and the s21 fe witch in my opinion means alot...if you put the so called s20 or s21 fe in your pocket you will not even feel the vibration hardly at all ...so I think a review should be a real review on everything so people can get a true read on the phones.....in my opinion I suggest nobody even bother looking at any of the fe models as they should not even bare the 's' letter by putting the 's' on the fe it could only stand for ......wait for it.........shit.....that's what it stands for on that model ....dive right into the a53 guys it won't disappoint

[@neferpitou.]

Well I think the s21fe will have a better vibrator probably better than the a53 since the usually cheap out on that on low and mid range phones but most people can live without good vibrations

@@alwayswatching4677 Apple probably has the best haptics and everyone else is using less expensive vibration motors to save money for other phone options.
