My Galaxy A52 is getting only 40mbps on 2.4GHz Wifi while my Poco X2(which costs about half as much as the A52 and was launched a year before) gets 80mbps.
Same issue happens with mobile data as well. In a location where the Poco X2 gets 20mbps, Samsung barely gets 5-10mbps, that and it is unstable as well.
This seems to be a recurring issue with Samsung because of the lack of an implementation of 2x2 or 4x4 MIMO on its devices. I could only test A52 and A52S. Can someone please confirm if this issue is present in their devices as well?

I don't think this is an issue with software. I don't know if they have the hardware support as well. They could be disabling this feature in just A series with software though. I'm not sure, but Samsung definitely has very bad network connectivity. It's just sad that they charge more for their "brand value" and then proceed to give inferior hardware for double the price.

Ya I know they charge a lot because ofthere brand value I think you should upgrade your phone.At samsung website A33 5G is available for 23800 with student discount even with emi and paytm cashback RS.2500 to 250.

Absolutely not. A33 is a downgrade from A52. And it's pointless to upgrade a phone after just 1.5 years, and S23 is the only good upgrade from A52 where I can be sure there is MIMO support. Moreover this is what Samsung does with all its A series phones. A33 will not be any different.
Anything below S series of Samsung will always be inferior to what other brands provide. Only software is where Samsung has the edge.
