Display The display is somewhat one of the weak points of the Galaxy M33 5G. It can’t exactly be called a weak point thanks to the bizarre choices of display tech integration. Let's clarify. Samsung is a well-established panel maker with their Super AMOLED and AMOLED panels being the industry standards. However, Samsung went with a TFT panel for the M33 5G which in itself is an outdated display tech. What’s surprising is that Samsung also integrated a 120 Hz refresh rate on the TFT panel. Speaking of the quality of the display itself, it is average at best. Colors aren’t as bright and crisp as AMOLED or even IPS LCDs. There are also issues with color shifts and viewing angles. but the touch response of the panel is super-fast thanks to the 120 Hz refresh rate. Samsung could have included an IPS LCD but TFT is what the users will be getting.

Unlike others in this price bracket, Samsung has included a quad-camera setup and the lens specs are pretty impressive. The main lens here is a 50 MP one with an f/1.8 aperture. There is also a 5 MP ultrawide shooter along with 2 MP macro and depth sensors. The front features an 8 MP selfie shooter as well. Speaking of the performance of the camera, the main lens and the wide-angle lens definitely shines. The colors and details look amazing in direct sunlight and bright conditions. However, there is noticeable noise and grains in indoor lighting. The subject also tends to become a bit soft with reduced edge detection. Users will get massive improvements in videography. The Galaxy M33 will support up to 4K at 30 fps up from the 1080P on the previous gen. Overall, the camera setup seems to be on par if not better considering the price.

However, rumors suggest that the device may come with Exynos 1280 chipset based on a 5 Nm architecture. The octa-core Exynos processor is known to be power efficient and performance-oriented. As a result, Samsung is already branding the device as an entry-level gaming phone. The device is well equipped to handle daily tasks like browsing the web or social media.

Users can expect to get around 8 to 10 hours of continued usage and at least 6 hours of heavy gaming. There is also a 25W fast charger included in the box. Price of Samsung Galaxy M33 5G in Bangladesh The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G has not yet been officially launched in Bangladesh. The speculative price in the Indian market puts a 17,999 Rs tag on the device which roughly translates to 20,382 BDT ( 1 INR = 1.13 BDT ). However, the price might differ depending on supply, tax, and company sales policies. Verdict The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G doesn’t bring anything new to the table. Rather it is another incremental update in the entry-level segment. The camera and the battery are the strongest suit of the device and may well be its sales determinant. But the display is where the device falls short. In hindsight, the device will be perfect for those looking for a budget gaming phone with long reliability.
