Blackview A52 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Blackview A52 - autonomy and design as the main advantages

Building a truly successful low-end smartphone is not easy. The need to maintain a reasonable cost leads to compromises that are not always approved by a demanding audience. The hero of today's review also did not do without serious simplifications, but he still has a couple of trump cards up his sleeve.

The appearance of the novelty is good for the value segment. We see a similar dual camera unit in much more expensive analogues of the gadget, both the small display frames and the eye-pleasing colors of the cases are pleasing. Perhaps, it will be possible to criticize only the absence of a fingerprint sensor. As a result, only a 5-megapixel front camera is responsible for data security in the mobile assistant. The 6.5-inch IPS display has a resolution of 1600x720 pixels, which indicates the average clarity of the output image. Fortunately, such oversights are compensated by a reserve of brightness, decently tuned color reproduction.

With technical characteristics, the situation is even more controversial. The combination of the UNISOC SC9863 processor and the PowerVR GE8322 video adapter clearly lacks 2GB of RAM. If this fact does not negatively affect the smoothness of the Android 12 interface, then it significantly worsens the performance of even not very resource-intensive games. In addition, projects like Call Of Duty Mobile can spontaneously close just because of the lack of RAM. But they did not save on the battery, since its capacity was increased to 5180 mAh. It is quite possible to spend two days without searching for outlets. But the internal storage of 32GB does not cause delight, it will have to be expanded with MicroSD cards.

13 and 0.3-megapixel photomodules are not the best tool for photography, but it is possible to use them in some scenarios. So, the text of the documents remains clear, and even in sunny weather, the landscapes are not overflowing with noise, small details are visible. Unfortunately, the slightest deterioration in lighting significantly spoils the shots. A jack for wired headphones is present, which cannot be said about stereo speakers. Thus, the device will definitely find its buyer who needs a stylish and autonomous second phone. For the status of the main device, it lacks functionality and performance.
