8 Gb Ram Hence Faster
Everything is excellent about this phone except the Face Recognition which doesn’t work if light on the face is slightly less .And the Finger Sensor, instead of on the back side of the mobile, is on the side On/Off Key which doesn’t work properly since the space on the side Key is too little to recognise the Biometric. Moreover, for the Screen Shots one has to use the low volume key and on/off key simultaneously, which is cumbersome unlike M30 model where just swipe of screen is enough.Other functions seem to be good although it’s too early for me to comment, since I bought the phone just 2 days back on 10th June 2023.

Very basic
The appearance is good. It’s too heavy, if you are constant user it will tire your hands. Battery backup is also so so if you use it more then for phone calls. The worst part is the camera , you can’t expect a clear picture in this camera ,I was embarrassed of the pictures I took at my office party. I had to ask my colleague to share the picture later which they took. This is my 1st time buying Samsung and was gonna try Samsung galaxy s23 based on this experience. Well I am disappointed so far and have to think other options I guess.

Great value for daily use
If you are looking for a mobile that gets the job done for daily purposes, then this is the phone for you.For starters, I don’t play any games (temple run once a while). I primarily use it for daily stuff – WhatsApp, Surfing, News, Youtube, Maps while travelling.Based on whether I am using GPS and / or bluetooth, I get a screen on time of 6-8 hours. If you charge this phone then rest assured that you will have enough battery to last the day. A full charge will typically give 1.5-2 days based on your use. I use a Samsung 35Wfast charger which I had purchased seperately beforehand. It takes typically 80-90 mins on this chatger to charge from 10-100%.I know some people complain that it’s not an AMOLED display, but for me after a while it wasnt or isnt any issue.The fingerprint sensor works most of the time, except if you have sweaty fingers. The face scanner is a hit and miss and doesn’t always work in darkness.The back 50MP main shooter is good in daylight at this price point. The macro camera is as good as useless.Now comes the best part, Knox security. I purchased thos phone primarily for this over chinese phones. Samsung Pass and SamsuyPay will hold your account details and Payment card details secure. No need to physically carry a debit/credit card anymore. This phone supports tap to pay for the card saved to SamsungPay.PS:My main motivation for a Samsung phone over chinese ones was a no brainer after our Soldiers were martyred in Galwan valley after scuff with Chinese PLA. I get you may jump on me that chinese brands offer a better value for money. But i wont compromise my integrity and hand money to enemy side.

OK for the price
Screen clarity color good, camera excellent, but phoneba little heavy, slow to start. Other features good, had to delete some useless apps. It feels sturdy, so far battery feels good and long lasting, fast charging. Ok for ab android under 19k. The camera is a real pleasure. Comes with cable but without charger adapter. Please note that this Samsung galaxy M33 is made in India

It is a Decent phone.
Read multiple reviews etc and brought the phone. This is my 1st Samsung phone, Never had a Samsung Android phone before.Just listing the Cons I noticed:1. Finger print sensor is not that great. The sensor button is so small, If you have a Silicon cover it is difficult as your finger is blocked 80% and you have to put some efforts to touch it and get it accepted. I used MI phone before and had a dedicated large finger print sensor in the back and feel that was good as the sensor was accurate and had a large surface area.2. Android 12 is great, But is slightly sluggish. If you used a faster phone before, then you need to get used to the minor slowness. It is slightly slow, But not bad.3. Camera is OK, Again if you want to shoot photos then you need to buy I-Phone or a Higher priced Samsung phone.4. Battery is 6000maH, But seems bit it drains faster, But still is not bad. If you are using it very frequently with some Intense Apps running in the background (Not Gaming) then will last for 1 – 1.5 days max.5. 5G Network selection is only possible with 1 sim at a time. I did not get the option to select 5G Network on both sims at the same time. Once you select 5G on one sim, then the same is removed from the other sim and becomes 4G.Overall it is a decent phone and if you get this on a discount then go for it or you can look for better options.

Cost Effective Phone
Recently I purchased M33 phone from Amazon. Delivery experience was good.Price was 20k but in Amazon sell I purchased in 14k. Impressive phone. Samsung has provided lot of features in this phone competitive to Chinese phonesPros1. Excellent Battery life due to 5000mah2. Screen resolution is excellent eventhough it is not Amoled.3. Good refresh rate4.Good camera5. 5G phone with 12 bands.6. One can increase RAM upto 16 gb7. You can uninstall additional installed apps( In Chinese phones you can’t)Cons1. No charger in the box so one need to spent Rs 1200 additionally.2. Phone is heavy and big sizeWhile choosing this phone main competitor was Real me Narzo Pro 50 .I will say it is like a Hero Splendor as it offers all required features in optimum cost.I am proud that I purchased Indian manufactured phone.

Good phone to buy
I have been using this phone for almost 1 month. Overall experience is good so far. Some featurea are not available which is highly expected from Samsung. No default App Lock is provided. Network speed is not available. Music player has to be downloaded. Back Camera is good but 8MP front camera is not up to the mark. 25W charger can charge battery in 1.5hrs. Knox security is good to use. Protect Battery by 85% full charge restriction is also present. Display is okay okay in bright sunlight.

Best product in price range
Loved the mobile with build, battery backup, camera quality,Amazon Pro: Delivered right on time, and easy hand over by delivery person. Hats off to them for being timely in such hot summer.Amazon Con: This was delivered with just a hard paper box. I ordered sony BT headphones in past, it came with secured package. With this mobile it was just a hard corrugated box package. Not happy at all.Samsung Pro: They got the best product in this price range. A real Value for money.Samsung Cons: 1. Should have included a complete set of accessories like wired headphone, adaptor. It is not too much to ask for. This is my first samsung, maybe in future I’ll think of buying a product with all accessories included in box. Hope it reaches to Samsung and will be considered for other incomplete packed product range.2. Device heats up while charging. Maybe due to recent hot Indian summer, such devices should be designed by keeping this point in mind.3. Audio jack should have been placed on top instead of bottom.

(1)USER FRIENDLINESS (2) SOFTWARE FOR DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS
1) There is problem with sound. Person on other side mostly says not able to hear my voice. It is not Tower problem as speaking to the same person at same time from other brand phones there is no problem.Whenever I have purchased Samsung the problem of sound is always there.Also it is not a Setting problem of Volume key.In previous 4 button phones the output sound was very low and I had to increase manually each time a ohoe comes. Each time a new phone call comes I have to again increase as it drops back to previous low level.2) This is the first time I purchased a Samsung Smart phone HOPING that it will be better than its next competitor. I WAS DISAPPOINTED TO FIND THAT IT IS NOT SO MUCH USER-FRIENDLY.IN THE SAME MENU YOU CAN NOT NAVIGATE TO DIFFERENT OPERATIONS.3) ONE BIGGEST DISADVANTAGE OF this smart phone ( Must be true for all other Samsung Smart phone models ) is the STORAGE OF CALL RECORDINGS. IN SAMSUNG ALL CALL RECORDINGS ARE GOING TO ONLY ONE FOLDER. SO IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT WAS SOME DISCUSSION WITH ONE PARTICULAR PERSON THEN YOU HAVE TO GO TO THE HUGE CALL RECORDING LIST ,GO ON CLICKING EACH CALL AND AGAIN LOCATE THE SAME CONTACT CALL. THIS IS REALLY CUMBERSOME AND GREAT TIME CONSUMING.I had been using the Smart phone of the Competitor so long .I very happily found that all Cal recordings are displayed below the Contact and you can easily locate the call recording and save enormous time spent in Samsung.4) TOOLS- There is NO Tools Folder . The Competitor has Tools Folder which keeps all frequently used Tools in it- Like Calculator, Scanner ,Voice Recorder,COMPASS,Clock ,Downloads etc in one place and you can quickly select that. Here you have to go on searching each.These are the reasons I say Samsungs software is much less user-friendly.I WONT BUY IT IN FUTURE.MY COMMENTS ARE FACT-BASED AND NOT EMOTION BASED OR AFFINITY BASED. AS I EXPERIENCED.5) MOREOVER this 5G is quite costly. The Charger is not being supplied with the mobile. You have to purchase it separately. So with the mobile price you must add the charger price to find out the SET price and compare with competitors’ . The Redmi also does not suggest what existing Charger will work ,if some one has that. ALL COMPANIES MUST SUPPLY WITH THE CHARGER AND QUOTE PRICE.I WISH SOMEONE TAKES UP THE MATTER WITH CONSUMER COURT AND THE COURT PASSES ORDER TO ALL MOBILE COMPANIES TO SELL COMPLETE SETS ONLY IN ONE PACKING.

The Front Camera is below average but ok
Got fot 17,500 (8gb/128gb)First impressions are quite good and I will update this later if I find anything.Weight – well distributed all over the phone, feels light compared to 5000mAh phones.Plastic – the phone is not in a box design like that of iphones, it is like old phones in hand feel.Camera – below average camera of both front and back, the back cameras quality can be justified in thi price segment but the front camera is horrible as hell, the phone lags in the front camera, can’t take decent photos with it. The front camera should at least be usable in this price range. But ok for video calls and etc.On using the 25watt charger the charging is fast, like 1.2 hours from 20 – 80, the speed is good, phone surely gets super hot at 80% charge on 25 watt charger, so I recommend plugging it out or switch on that don’t charge over 85% option.Any other questions you can ask me directly at @yadfish on twitter I will answer you.If you are thinking to buy it over Chinese brands, I would recommend it to you, but if you want Amoled, dual speakers then increase the budget and you can go with A34 5g or s21 fe 5g, or in Chinese you can go with Redmi note 12 pro series or Iqoo equivalent series.

Camera is too bad. Software issue as well.
I bought mobile at good offer price. I am a samsung lover. This is the first time, I am disappointed with a Samsung mobile purchase. Camera is very poor. Performance is not great as other processors of samsung mobile. I dont like finger print sensor on side of the mobile. Mobile thickness is more. I am also facing some bugs issue. while i operate the mobile, automatically it goes back to previous step.. Automatically Undo the step. I have to contact the service center now.This is the first time I am also taking mobile to service center. My earlier purchases were great with trendy samsung mobiles of that time.

Poor response and camera
Not the best option for clicking pictures and gaming. Samsung really needs to go easy on animation and software updates for each and every thing and instead work on response time.
Jayanta Dhar –
So-so kind of mobile…
First, I bought it (during Great Indian Festival for Rs. 14499) for my mother and she is extremely happy with it.Secondly, Samsung mentioned it has a 5nm processor, though the speed does not demonstrate that at all even after opting for maximum RAM usage (i.e., 8GB+8GB).Third, the main sensor 50mp is quite nice to click daylight images. I won’t say it struggles at night as the result is ‘not so bad’.Fourth, touch sensitivity is awesome. The screen is well protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 5. One must use a screen protector as the screen is quite slippery (take this as a positive point).Fifth, already updated to Android 13 and it’s really a great experience till now.Sixth, the battery is HUGE, although doesn’t have its effectiveness in day-to-day usage. A fully charged 6000mAh battery does not run for 2 days (even with less usage by my mother. I think the culprit is the update and hope Samsung will fix this issue shortly).Seventh, the design is good (if not great). I like the overall design language of the mobile.Hope this review helps. Take care.

Best Smart Phone under 18k
Galaxy M33 5G review, Initially impression looks good feels good but heavy while holding. I am an Iphone user but to get into the Android world i need to backup my Whatsapp data. If you are an Android user then it’s easy to back up Whatsapp data in google drive but for Iphone users it’s not that easy. Many may be aware that Whatsapp data backup can be done using Samsung devices which run with Android 12. It took nearly 2 hours to complete data transfer from Iphone to M33 device. With datas backup, Now I can switch to an Android device without worrying about data transfering.Unboxing – Box looks slim like a Higher end smartphone, so you can’t expect Charger in the box. In Box it has Handset, Sim ejector tool, Type-c to Type-c cable and warranty card.Lets see the Pros and Cons about M33Display:Pros – 120Hz refresh rate with 6.6 inch TFT LCD display and other features like HDR10+ support. It has 1080 x 2408 Resolution which comes with Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Overall it looks like a premium mid range phone.Cons – At this price Amoled display could have been a better one.Body :Pros – Looks like a solid body built with Plastic body at the back.Cons – Toooo heavy to hold with Phone thickness of 9.4mm and weight over 200 grams.OS & Chipset :Pros – It has a chipset of Exynos 1280 5nm processor with Android 12, One UI 4.1 out of the box. Which is good at this price range.Cons – Snapdragon Chipset would be better.Storage :Pros – Internal storage comes with 128GB and 6 & 8 GB variant Ram and also Supports dedicated MicroSD card.Cons – NACamera :Pros – Pro mode available. Nice portrait with 50 MP camera. 5 MP Ultra wide does decent work.Cons – 50 MP camera doest take good pics some places over coloured and over shade in pic and 2 with Micro and depth given for name sake. The 8MP selfie camera doesn’t take good selfies but can be used for Video calls.Battery :Pros – 6000Mah battery comes with 25W Fast charging and can be used for a couple of days for day today usage but if you’re a heavy user then maybe it lasts for 1 to 1.5 days.Cons – Toooo slow to reach 0 to 100% It takes nearly 2.5 hrs with other fast charges but with Samsung’s 25W Fast charges it takes 1.45 Hrs to complete 100%Other Features :It comes with Bluetooth 5.1, Wifi – Dual band, Wifi Direct, GPS, NFC, Reverse charging and Samsung Pay in it.Conclusion :If you ask me, Best Premium mid range smartphone for overall performance but if you need to purchase it as a camera performance then you need to consider other phones with same spec.

Everything is great except tft lcd display not even ips lcd.
Design : great but heavy at 215gm with rugged case 230-240gm, back panel get some fingerprint but not too much. Holding grip is comfortable. It get scratch easily so case is definitely needed.Display: TFT lcd not ips lcd but 120hz is Smooth. Color accuracy is ok, slightly dull in hdr videos, not vibrant like Olde or amoled. Brightness is more than enough in indore but in sunlight it manageable. Yes display is the pain point of this phone.Processor & performance: multitasking is not a problem at all with 8gb ram & umcp 5.1 not ufs 2.2 storage (umcp 5.1 is better than ufs 2.1 in both read & write speed but not matches the ufs 2.2 write speed, so you get the point ). Heavy games like COD mobile, apex legends playable at low graphics with max (60fps) fps. Heating issue starts after 40-50min in winter. Its not too hot to hold, you can play a game.Camera : main camera take decent photo with decent hdr and contrast & enough detail, 50 mp mode take more detailed shot. 5mp wide angle camera at 17499 is painful but ok to have atleast samsung camera software makes the magic to actually produce a usable wide angle photo. Other 2 mp lens forget about that. 8mp Selfie cam take good photo with good details in well lit condition. Night mode on rear is okish but selfi night mode is not ok.Battery: heavy uses at 60hz fixed refresh rate gives 9⅓ hr screen-on time with highest software tweaks & optimization possible. With 120fps it will 6½hr maybe. Light uses easily last for 1 day.0-100% Charging at 15watt it will take 2hr 5-15min . with 25 watt 0-100% it charges 90-95 mins.Software: oneui is oneui where it absolutely shines. With 2 yr android update and 4yr security update. Last android update at dec 2023 and last security patch july 2026. It comes with some bloatware but most of them can be uninstalled. Only 4 samsung bloatware (galaxy store,theme,max,cloud etc )and one Microsoft (one drive) can’t be Uninstalled . No ads within oneui software, ads in 3rd party apps is not a fault of samsung.If you want a phone that works no matter it’s specifications and security & privacy is important to you then choose samsung over Chinese brand.Smooth flawless user experience.Update21st july 2023Main camera does absolute job no complaints except night time ( not unusable photo but has some grain/ noise in low light condition )I usually charge my phone upto 85% with inbuilt charging protection option given in samsung battery management app and use it until it’s 20% then give it to charging and it takes 54 minutes to charge from 20% to 85%While 65% battery gives me at least 6½ hr of screen on time.& another pain point that it has no builtin app locker & network speedometer.On the flip side it has call recorder without announcement and a gimmick (voice focus for voice call clarity enhancement) that works better than advertise.Fingerprint reader is works like 8 or 9 time in 10 attempts. Yes it something it doesn’t works on 1st attempt and also when the finger is wet.

There are many hidden problems in this phone.
This phone is overpriced for even discounted price (12,999/- for 6 GB variant). I purchased it because of past good experience with Samsung (Galaxy On6) but this phone cannot match the legacy. Samsung has done too much unnecessary cost cutting on this phone.Camera: It has an average camera. It clicks decent photos and records good videos up to 4K 30fps, fhd 60. Only the main 50 MP sensor is usable, all others are present just for count. Camera has serious bug that it captures washed out colours if its AI detects a human face while using flash. If we remove human from frame, it captures just fine colours. Also, colours are just fine while clicking without flash.Front camera is pathetic from today’s standard, it will just get you with video calls and nothing more, do not expect to use it for selfies with clarity. I do not click many pictures so I am okay with its camera.You can see this issue in the attached images, both the images were captured in low light with flash, the first one came out fine with colours close to actual object while the second one has completely washed out colours because the AI in phone detected human there. This unnecessary processing ruins the joy and there is no option in camera settings to turn this off. I have spent many hours trying to avoid this with different combinations of camera settings but it cannot be turned off. This bug might be embedded deep in the phone hardware as even third party camera apps ( I tried with OpenCamera) also give the same results.Battery : It can last for around 2 days with light to medium usage. It struggles to last one full day with high usage. Exynos 1280 is not efficient considering it is 5nm chipset. Also, the phone gets warm even with normal usage ( browsing etc) and gets somewhat hot during gaming.Idle battery drain is around 8-10% per night.It charges from 8% to 100% in 4:50 hours with 5 watt charger.With 7.5w (5v 1.5a) charger, it takes around 2:55 hours.Charges in around 2:15 hours with 15 watt charger (shows as fast charging).With 25 watt charger, the phone shows as super fast charging and charges from 5% to 100% in 1:24 hours.Display : Display seems smooth with 120 Hz, obviously not punchy as super amoled but it is okay and has good brightness for sunlight use and sufficiently low brightness for comfortable night use. Viewing angles are good. I did not face any issue with display and am okay with it.Buggy Auto brightness: Samsung has a habit of using cheap virtual sensors on its devices. This phone has virtual light sensors which is just a software solution to set screen brightness according to light present in room and using front camera as the light source. But this is seriously buggy in this phone, the phone does not understand difference between complete dark and dimly lit room. So, it will apply same brightness settings to both of these situations resulting unnecessarily bright screen in dark and uncomfortably dim screen in dimly lighted room. This sensor works poorly in outdoor as well. Most of the time, the brightness it applies to screen is not adequate.Software and UI: Samsung had installed may bloatware apps which are removable, One UI as everyone knows, is pretty user friendly. So, that is okay, however, Samsung should mention that this phone does not support some of the features such as S secure, bixby routines and sound assistant which are useful for some. Otherwise software experience is good, lag free.WiFi: It supports 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz wifi at 1×1. So max of 72 mbps in 2.4 ghz mode and max 433 mbps in 5 ghz mode. This is the most basic wifi configuration possible. It can share wifi over hotspot which is nice. Although basic, wifi will not give any issue and has good range. So, wifi is okay.Bluetooth: I did not test bluetooth range but found it sufficient for my use. It can connect to two different devices simultaneously. However, can play music in one device only. Did not find any issue with bluetooth.Mobile network: It has good 5g support with 12 bands but supports only 1 5g sim at a time. If we set one of the sims to 5g mode, the other one drops to 4g/3g/2g mode.It supports carrier aggregation and when tested, it was working with 3 band carrier aggregation with Jio.Call clarity is good and it can record calls without announcing to other person. virtual proximity sensor is not too bad.Fingerprint reader: For this price, the performance of side mounted fingerprint reader is good enough.We can register up to 3 fingerprints only which is limiting and not appreciated, at least 5 should be given.Face unlock: I guess it has AI based face unlock which works good even in low light condition. Although I do not know how secure it is.Storage and Memory: It has 6 to 8 GB of Lpddr4x RAM which is good for this price.128 GB storage used is UFS 2.1 which is not justified at this price in 2022 and lacks in performance when compared to UFS 2.2, apps take more time to install.Gaming: I installed call of duty mobile and it allowed settings up to medium graphics with very high frame rate and low graphics with max frame rate. In both settings, game was lag free and frame rate was always below 60 fps. So below average gaming. However, I do not play games, so, did not test with other games and do not care about gaming performance.Multimedia: Display quality is okay and single bottom firing speaker is average and audio from headset jack is fine, no complaints here.The chipset used in this phone supports h.264, h.265 video codecs only and does not support VP9 and AV1 codecs which is the most annoying downside. This means that it can play youtube only till 1080p and not in 2k or 4k because youtube supports h.264 up to 1080p only and we need vp9 and av1 support if we want to play higher resolution videos and if in future youtube removes h.264 support then this phone will not be able to play youtube at all. This is a very serious issue with this device. In future, all the streaming services will eventually switch to vp9 and av1 codecs as they provide better streaming efficiency and are royalty free, but as this phone does not support those, we cannot say this will be good for multimedia in future. So, 0 points for this in multimedia.Also, if we play youtube videos in browser like brave, it runs in software acceleration mode ( again, due to lack of vp9 and av1 capability) which loads up cpu and drains battery fast. Use youtube in either Youtube app or Newpipe to prevent unnecessary battery drain (as these apps play videos with hardware acceleration, which saves power). All this nonsense applies to other OTT apps (Hotstar, Prime etc) as well as almost all of them use VP9 codec for streaming which this phone plays in software mode, which shoot up the cpu usage and causes fast battery drain ( around 15-18% per hour).GPS and navigation : Works just fine. Has compass support.Pros:Two promised android updates and 4 years of security updates.Sufficiently good display with high refresh rate, feels really smooth.Good audio, WiFi and Bluetooth.dedicated memory card slot.base variant with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB storage which is good.Cons:Samsung cheaping out with no charger/cover/screen protector in box while competitors provide those.5g on single sim only. Competitors provide dual 5g in even cheaper phones.inferior UFS 2.1 storage is not good at this price, UFS 2.2 should be there.only up to 3 fingerprints.Buggy camera algorithm.cheap virtual proximity sensor.buggy camera light sensor.Exynos 1280 chipset claims to be having 5nm lithography which is good on paper, but in reality, its efficiency is on par with some 12-14 nm chipset and it heats under general use. Also, I don’t understand why Samsung had to omit useful VP9 and AV1 codec which wouldn’t even have costed them more as they are royalty free and Mediatek Dimensity 920 with same Mali G68 GPU supports those codecs. This has resulted the phone to be not able to play 4K and 2K resolutions on youtube.No HDR playback support.

Galaxy M33 5G a mixed bag of Affordability
With 5G connectivity, a 120Hz display and solid performance, the Galaxy M33 5G is Samsung’s best-value smartphone yet under 20K segmentPros Almost half the price of Galaxy A53Exynos 1280 is a solid performerExcellent 120Hz display with smooth experience across the boardHuge performance uplift over M32One UI 4.1 based on android 12 has tons of good features to love, none of the flagship grade features are skipped here (apart from dex mode and spen features), Zero lag or stuttering in 120 hz mode with ease of use and seemless switching of apps without any crash or reloading of apps, makes using one ui pleasure to surf acrossYou get features like a screen recorder, video call effects, Game Launcher, Link to Windows, Dual Messenger, Quick Share, Music Share, and Secure Folder, along with many others. Some of the fancy Android 12 features, like the ability to change the color palette of icons and menus based on the wallpaper and dim the screen for easier reading in the dark, are also included.Voice focus for calls is excellent feature, phone call quality is really good even in nosiy and crowded areasI had no issues with GPS or connectivity while using Google maps to navigate, signal stays strong even in rural areas, thats a positive point with good accuracy4g Volte with carrier aggregation works flawlesslyWifi connectivity on the Dual band 5ghz router is strong and performs more than satisfactorily with low latency responseBluetooth 5.1 connectivity is strong and has good range no worries of disconnection even as far as 15 metersAudio quality via 3.5 mm jack is excellent compared to Redmi note 10 pro, much more defined and well roundedFor media consumption widewine L1 support is present, Good AV experience on ott platforms, I have no serious complaints about color reproduction in videos considering TFT LCD this panel does a good enough job .Main Camera 50mp is on par and better than Redmi note 10 pro in almost all conditions, retains colors close to reality with good dynamic range and handling of exposure with HDR in photos as well as videos, it is able to handle extremely bright conditions wellEven in shadows during day time it was able to maintain good colorsGood Stable videos at 1080p4k video recording is available at 30 FPS is availableMany cool camera features , boasts AR fun mode, single Take, Object Eraser and Video TNR (Temporal Noise Reduction) which makes it fun to use cameraSelfie camera has good punchy colors, Samsung’s way of boosted colour processing some may like it ,some may notExcellent battery life, got 9 hours of SOT despite the heavy usage. It takes around 1.5 hours to go from 0-100, and half an hour of charging can take the battery percentage to around 45% provided you have 25 watt Samsung’s chargerDespite summer time, phone has managed to stay relatively cool, 5nm architecture helping its cause here12 5G BandsDedicated SD card slot is a plus herePD 3.0 25 watt fast charging support reasonable for price segment but we have seen faster charging speeds with other OEMsPromised 2 major android OS updates and 4 years security updates is a huge plus above its competitors, making this device more value for money in long runCons Ultrawide camera is on softer side , lacks details compared to its primary sensor but manages to frame good shots that one can post on social media, macro camera is good with colors and edge detection but lacks depth of field and details , Note 10 pro which is brilliant in this caseNight shots are above average mostly grainy and muddled but better than most smartphones in its segmentLacks some stability in Video recording at 4k Amoled display could have made it unbeatableLacks stereo Speaker, but audio quality on single speaker is quite goodPre-installed bloatwares like Moj, dailyhunt, sharechat, byju’s are mild and uninstallable but makes mature one UI experience looks immature out of the boxCurrently device is not tunned for high gaming performance as limited FPS in popular games like BGMI and COD deters it away from being a gamer friendly device, but we can expect exynos 1280 to resolve over time and be more optimized for more games in future updatesSlightly cheap design , Chunky in size, carries some heft, Dated notch displayLack of charger in the box is a bummer, which adds up to the value cost proposition

Wow!
Fab phone…the display is not ambled but didn’t bother me due to quality… it is super fast. I bought the 8gb version. The look and back is stylish. It is light weight although not very slim from sides.The camera looks good with all the premium features like slo mo, portrait, macro, hyperlapse etc. The performance is super smooth. The new thing is side button finger print sensor. Easy to open. Face recognition is good. Rest will post after using some time. But in this cost, it looks super worth the money. Go for it!Edit:I am surprised why is everyone talking about charger.. we have n number of chargers floating in our houses from older phones and it is a good way of reducing e waste. Also, if they would give the charger and headset, the cost goes high. So may be Samsung can create it as an option for people who want to buy with extra cost. The features of the phones are premium, except Amoled display, but look at the cost.. I think it is a bargain.The phone is fantastic. I have been using since 3 days now, excellent battery backup- 2 days with normal usage (I don’t play games), super smooth and fast, and 5g is awesome (use with wifi).Edit:Major audio bug that I am facing in this phone. I requested for a replacement and guess what the replacement phone has that issue too.As soon as I put an audio app to back ground…let’s say I am listening a song or an ebook via headphone and I go to home screen, it creates a loud screach and very very loud voice. U will have to take off ur earphone.The biggest issue is the replacement didn’t solve this problem. I would have to go to Samsung now. :(Don’t buy. Not worth it. I was using M20 for 3 years before this and it was clearly better.

Good phone for Parents not for Genex.
Phone is beautiful , good processing power! Only worth if you get it between 12-13k. I am a samsung lover , so bought this for dad and 5g is out here in my city. But my dad is not happy with camera.Now lets talk about cons! Yes… Camera is pathetic only good at bright sun light! Lil heavy ! Slow internet connectivity which i think will resolve after the update. I got it at 13.5 for which i am satisfied! Oh yeah TFT screen but thats not a con!! Those who are not taking it for dispaly then i must tell you i use iphone 12 and i compared the 4k videos in both and felt like m33 is more vibrant. Definately Amoled is amoled but it can be ignored!Rest up to you! Its your money ! Invest smart!Atlast just want to say too much cost cutting for just 5g! You will get loads of feautures in chinese like realme , poco, redi!! But UI is best in samsung! You will get updates for next 2 years! good service center is another addon!Rest up to you! Its your money ! Invest smart!

Overall good, could have been better
Purchased 8GB option for my mother and overall it’s good buy at 17K after discount. Following are some of my experience sharinh after using it for 3 days:Pros:- Big 6.6 screen but not heavy to be honest. Ocean blue was cool pick.- Massive 6000 mah battery, I need not charge for first 28 hours inspite of heavy usage- Camera is descent and taking good pictures from both front and rear. Please don’t expect to click like Samsung flagship- overall good display inspite of TFT LCD. Was pretty bright and smooth thanks to 120 hz refresh rate- Daily usage between multiple apps was handled pretty smooth including streaming in Netflix Amazon hotstar etc- Not much gamer so cannot comment on this- liked Android 12 and latest one Ui 4.1 and haptics is really goodCons:- Amoled could have been provided at this price range. Samsung need to learn from realme and oppo- No charger adapter was disappointing. Need to spend extra 900 rs for same- Even though bottom speaker was pretty loud, stereo speakers could have been provided in this range- Always need to press side button to on display. Double tap on screen is not available hereOverall if you want Samsung only at this price range then can go for it without second thought. Otherwise you have realme or oppo or poco if you want amoled screen charger, dual stereo speakers etc…

worst camera quality and less intelligent features than Redmi Phones.
I bought this product because of its name Samsung. But I got cheated with this. I could not single pros of this phone rather than battery which of course a huge 5000mAh .Cons1. Poor Camera Quality. Wide is worst. you will get blur images. Its camera give boost to my craving for an Iphone .2. Poor features. you have to install third party app to see your daily data usage. otherwise you can’t.I have a Redmi 5 which has a lot more features than this mobile.3. Very heavy. It is heavier than similar sets with this range.4. Average Display. If you are buying this, please add some 5000 extra for Amoled Display which is far far better than this cheap quality.5. No charger. you have to buy charger separately which cost around 1200 Rs. . Redmi and other brands are giving charger plus screen guard with smartphone which is better than this .6. Overall Experience is below average. It is not good enough as Expected.If you are buying your first phone please don’t buy this one otherwise you will be felt cheated.Pros1. It has very popular brand name .2. ………………..3. … … . . . . . . . I don’t think it has other than this.worst experience after Micromax.

best buy budget phone value for money
After horrible experience from Flipkart bought this phone from amazon and got delivery on 30/09/22After using it till 11/10/22I would say this is the best decision made by me to purshase this budget smartphoneAs I got it around 13.6k with charger on sale timeSo far pros are1. Super fast processing2. Display is good for TFT and 120hz refresh rate3. software experience4. Premium samsung features5. Original 5G support6. gaming modeCons1. Battery life is low since the phone runs 5G and being a slight heavy user I would say its okish and runs around 24-26hours with heavy usage2. the phone is slight heavy for plastic but as it contains 6k mah battery its okBut it looks premium and its a eye catcher…3. Camera should be updated***Will update this review after 3months using

Inspection of the Mobile phone Samsung M33 5G delivered to me
The phone suddenly heated up abnormally for which I complained and your inspection person visited twice for which I am very much thankful to you. Ultimately the said phone has been returned to you as being a old man (75yrs) I got panicked of using modern mobile phone which I have heard several instances of bursting of phone leading to fire.ThanksSukumar Bag

Bad performance
Very bad performance since starting time.But Amazon policy has played very badly when I wished to return it within it’s allowance time. No Representative did visit physically to check the mobile at door,rather they give a false checking statement to Amazon on it’s performance by checking through an App from their office. I repented for purchasing it through Amazon.

Good but not a great phone under 18k
Bought this phone in June 2023 and have been using it since last 6-7months. The battery was working fine and in fact good until suddenly it started to drain. Now, I have to charge it everyday with minimal utilization. The battery is covered under warranty but Samsung service Center is the worst. They will make you run pillar to post for the battery replacement.I guess most of the users might not face this issue, but I am an outlier. That said, the mobile in the first glance is heavy for it’s size. Anything above 200g will make it feel heavy especially in your pockets and while operating.The mobile also looks thick with no sleek features. No Amoled display so colors and hence the videos or gaming experience is not top notch.The only thing that you can buy this phone for is battery and that in my case wasn’t good.

M33 5G THE UNDERDOG YOU WILL LOVE
Well i am writing the review after using this phone for nearly 10 days , we my experience is as follow1.OFFER HELP ME BUYINGi purchased this device in Rs 9400 in Amazon summer sale ( including all offers) refer image attached , So for me in this price range i think this is the best what i can get2. WHY M33 5GWell This is my first Samsung device in 10 years of using smartphone & before buying there are lot of negative notion against this device but as amount and offers are tempting so i decided to buy the device , BUT i can say there is lot of noticeable difference between this Samsung device and others from MI , POCCO’S & REAL ME (BEEFORE I HAVE REALME 6) well the difference are as follows2.1. the screen :- Lots of you tubers and electronic gurus told the screen is bad , etc. etc . but as per my usage the screen is awesome not comparable to AMOLED but better than all other group IPS panels , i like the 120 HZ scroll feature is great .2.2. Software:- In my home there are lots of MI, Realme devices and we all have one complaint in common that is bloatware, unwanted messages due to which whole phone experience go to waste coupled with Bugs in UI, So this time after buying Samsung M33 i get rid of lot of bloatware’s and unwanted advertisement2.3 Built :- built is simple and solid , i like the Rugged built with Gorilla Glass 5 protection , Over all it is good2.4. Network Connectivity :- Samsung is very old company in telecom as compared to these new Age smart phone manufacturer, and believe me Samsung device are far far better in connectivity as compared to other my all old devices from chinsed manufacturer always struggle with network and connectivity issues but this device is lot better if your prime aim is to communicate and do calls2.5. sound & speaker:- There is feature of clear sound in the phone ,which is good for long time calls & speaker is loud enough for You tube content consumption2.6. Knox security :- It is very good added advantage for secure online payment , as I am deal high on online payment then this feature have very required security for day to day money transfer2.7. Battery & Processor – Processor is snappy and highly responsive and combined with 6000mha battery due to this the device is long lasting hours of usageConclusion :- I am experienced smartphone user and always emphasis that one should buy phone as per his or her prime requirements and I found this Samsung device M33 a well balanced smart phone and will recommend others to buy one because the There is no alternative to network connectivity and Knox security if we compared to other devicesTHANK YOU
