Design and Display
First off, both smartphones have got a similar design – with slight differences. They both feature protruding rear camera bumps with quad-camera sensors mounted on them.
As expectedly, the Galaxy A33 5G is slightly smaller than the Galaxy A53 5G. It measures 159.7 x 74.0 x 8.1mm and weighs just 186g. The Galaxy A53 5G, on the other hand, measures 159.9 x 74.7 x 8.1mm and weighs 189g.
Both smartphones spot different front-facing camera styles. The Galaxy A 33 5G spots a water-drop notch, while the Galaxy A53 features a punch-hole camera. Both phones are IP67 water and dust-resistant – quite impressive for mid-range smartphones.
The Samsung Galaxy A33 features a 6.4-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display, while the Galaxy A53 has a 6.5-inch display, Super AMOLED + Full HD. The Galaxy A53 takes it a step further with its 120Hz display refresh rate. For comparison, the Galaxy A33 5G supports a 90Hz display refresh rate.
Camera
Although both smartphones come with a quad-camera setup, with a main sensor, ultra-wide sensor, depth sensor, and macro sensor on the tray, they are miles apart in terms of quality. The Galaxy A33 5G rear camera tray is a combination of a 48-megapixel sensor (with f/1.8 aperture), an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor (with f/2.2 aperture), a 2-megapixel depth sensor (with f/2.4 aperture), and a 5-megapixel macro sensor. And a 13-megapixel water-drop camera upfront.
The Galaxy A53 5G, on the other hand, features a massive 64-megapixel main sensor (with f/1.8 aperture), a 12-megapixel ultra-wide sensor (f/2.2 aperture), a 5-megapixel depth sensor (with f/2.4 aperture), and a 5-megapixel macro lens.
Price and Availability
The Galaxy A33 and A53 will both be available in retail stores from April 1st, for a recommended retail price of $410 and $500, respectively. You can also pre-order either smartphone, from Samsung’s official website from the 18th of March.
