Samsung Galaxy A33 5G- Full Review & Unboxing
So, just like the A53, the 883 this year comes out of the box with just the smartphone itself, a USB-C to C cable connector, the same ejector tool, the paperwork, and that’s it. So, you do not get any TPU case or a charger out of the box, and that’s really crazy. One unique thing about this year’s A-series lineup would be the design. You’d barely tell the smartphones apart from this wear, except if you flip them to the front, or if you get different colors.
While the top side has a secondary mic, and a hybrid type nano sim slot and that’s one sim and memory expansion slot or just two sims. The bottom side of the smartphone gives you a mouthpiece opening, a USB-C port, and a down-firing speaker. So, no headphone jack on the Smith ring device anymore, and that’s kind of crazy. The fingerprint scanner from here is an in-display type, so not the fastest or most accurate when compared to the physical side-mounted options out there, but this here is a tad bit better than what we got from the A32 from last year.

The front side of this smartphone has a teardrop notch, which does feel dated in 2022 if you ask me. But you get a Gorilla Glass 5 protection for this display. Speaking of protection, this smartphone here has an IP67 rating, which can survive up to one meter in water for 30 minutes. Hence that flex at the intro! Yeah, this time we get adobe atmos audio in a stereo speaker configuration, the down-firing, and the other at the earpiece position. And this is actually an upgrade from the mono speaker we got from the predecessor as far as audio. I like the chassis’s clean, punchy, and generally enjoyable sound.
Display
Onto the display, you get a 6.4-inch super AMOLED panel, 1080p Full HD plus resolution, and a 90 Hz refresh rate. This panel is actually vibrant, although I do not really trust the white balance, as it is a little warmer than it should be, and that’s even when you try to tweak the display temperature from its settings within the settings of this phone. Now for the size, this 6.4-inch size is about my preferred screen size. I don’t know about you. What’s your ideal size? Let me know in the comments Section.

Storage Capacity
We still retain the infinity U display, just like the A32, on the smartphone. The Galaxy A33. First off, on here, you get six gigabytes of RAM and 128 gigs of internal storage.

Processor
The Exynos 1280 processor is what you get on here, which is the same as you would find on the Samsung Galaxy A53, making the smartphone the same in terms of performance as that smartphone. Generally, performance on here is snappy, apps load up quickly, and multitasking is actually a breeze on here. The processor in this smartphone is supposed to be quite powerful and efficient while gaming, right? But one problem I’ve come to see right here is that most games I’ve played on the smartphone are not able to get the best graphic performance with this.
