Samsung’s new mid-range smartphone is coming: Galaxy A52 will be water resistant with IP67 certification
Risodes continue to arrive about Samsung’s new 5G budget smartphone. The Galaxy A52 5G will be IP67 certified, meaning it will be water and dust resistant. The smartphone will be available in both 4G and 5G variants and could be launched along with the new Galaxy A72 5G in March 2021.
The rumor this time comes from tipster Evan Blass, who published a photo of the alleged rendering of the smartphone with water on it. Just the presence of the water spray would suggest that the Galaxy A52 5G is water resistant, but there are no official confirmations from Samsung yet. Moreover, it is unclear whether the 4G version will also enjoy IP67 certification. In addition to 5G, the new smartphone from the South Korean company will be able to count on a quality camera compartment and a capacious 4500 mAh battery with support for fast charging.

Although Samsung has not yet either confirmed or denied the new rumor, it now seems very likely that the mid-range smartphone from the South Korean company will be IP67 certified, a classification that guarantees both dust and water resistance. A certification that would affect only the 5G variant, while on the 4G version there is no news about it.
