The Samsung Galaxy M33 smartphone is a great value-for-money phone, and there’s no doubt that it’s one of the best mid-range phones of 2022. But still, we can’t let go of the flaws of this phone. If you are a heavy user and looking for exceptional camera quality, this device might feel underwhelming. But if you look at the bright side, tons of features make this phone a great choice for your money. It got a better resolution display, powerful processor, long-lasting battery, and many more things. In short, it’s a must-buy choice. If you are looking for a similar phone but with less price, check out Realme 9 in the meantime.

The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G is pretty good in terms of performance. Overall, we were quite satisfied with it. There could also be some discounts available if you purchase it online, so you could buy the phone for as low as RM1199. At this price, it's not a bad deal at all. But at RM1499, there are other options available on the market. For example, you could go for the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G. It costs the same at RM1499 but delivers better performance and a 108MP main camera. Another option is the OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G, which is also at the same price and has a slightly better performance than the Galaxy M33 5G but uses a Dimensity 900 chipset and a 64MP main camera. In the end, it's mostly a matter of preferences though, so it's up to you.

Introducing, Samsung’s new Galaxy M33 5G. This phone was meant to be exclusive to India only, but for some reason, it is available in Malaysia exclusively through Lazada only. We did another video regarding our shopping experience on Lazada – so check that out on at the top right corner. Honestly speaking, the shopping experience was quick and painless yet safe. But this video is about the phone itself. What does the Galaxy M33 5G bring to the table? Well, let’s find out today.

The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G is a pretty decent option to consider if you are looking for a phone under Rs 20,000. It looks decent with the great build quality. The design, however, I believe could have been slightly unique but it is still not that bad, just boring. The performance is another area where I feel the device can be a letdown, but departments like battery, display and camera are quite good. Though, macro and selfies could have been slightly improved. Overall, if you are a Samsung fan and looking to buy a phone at an affordable price that offers a clean user experience and a great battery life, the Galaxy M33 5G is a good option to consider. If performance and camera are what matters there are phones like Redmi Note 11 Pro, Realme 9, and more. Consumers who have the Galaxy M32 can wait for the M33 5G successor.

The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G is not the best phone for the price. Yes, for the price, it offers a powerful enough chipset and good battery life. However, the rest is relatively boring, and much of it is already available on other phones that are cheaper than M33, including Samsung's own.

When considering a new phone, there are many factors that help a user decide. Their use case, budget, and at times, the brand name all matter. The Galaxy M33 fits the bill for someone who needs a big battery phone, more than the standard 5000 mAh, we see these days. The device can handle the daily basic tasks such as messaging, calls, WhatsApp, and has enough on board storage. This is also ideally for someone who is not too fussy about the camera’s other features. But if your usage involves gaming, clicking photos and videos in different lighting scenarios and your budget is in the Rs 18,000 to Rs 20,000 segment, then this is not the right pick. Samsung’s own F23, or the Redmi Note 11 or even Realme 9 series might be better suited in those cases.

The concerns arise out of the competition it faces from its Android brethren. For similar or lesser prices, smartphones such as the iQOO 9 5G, Oppo Reno 7 Pro 5G, Vivo V23 Pro 5G, and Xiaomi 11T Pro are vastly superior in most ways. In terms of hardcore specs alone, these phones leave the Galaxy A73 5G biting the dust. With 20-minutes full charging, truly flagship-grade performance, and slightly better cameras, the iQOO 9 and Xiaomi 11T Pro will always be the popular picks. In fact, the Oppo Reno 7 Pro is no slouch either with its cameras and could make the A73 biting its nails. So why? Why the Galaxy A73 at Rs. 41,999? The simple answer is its quality user experience that comes right out of the box. That One UI software delivers a wholesome smartphone experience comparable to iPhones most of the time. And when you look at it as a package, the Galaxy A73 5G does not put a foot wrong. It may not have the muscles for outright bragging, but it is the most sensible buy for those wanting a no-nonsense smartphone. Try it out before you settle for one of those flagship killers

The rest is all pretty boring and most of it is already available on other phones, including Samsung’s own. The Galaxy F23 5G launched in India recently, for example, is a great alternative, especially for its Snapdragon chip that’s supported much better by game developers. It even runs Android 12 like the M33 5G, and the only thing you’re giving up is phenomenal battery life for, well, not-so-phenomenal-but-still-fantastic battery life. Even last year’s Galaxy A22 5G is an alternative thanks to better cameras and comparable performance, even if it comes with an older version of Android out of the box and is slightly costlier. You’ll probably be happy with the Galaxy M33 5G if you decide to pick it up, but just know that there are other options in this segment, and it’s best to make a decision based on where your priorities lie.

69.63%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
