The A52 is really bad. After years of use, I regret buying it. I recommend OnePlus Ace 3V instead. It costs a bit more but is worth it.

I have one since 2021 and I'm generally happy. It's a decent mid-range phone. A52 has good cameras, a fine screen, and reasonable CPU. After 2 years, it slows down and the UI isn't as smooth. Also, the back cover started popping off.
