The Galaxy A53 is currently the best mid-range Samsung phone available on the market, but its manufacturer does not discriminate against other models when it comes to updates. This is probably the reason why the Galaxy A53 5G only gets an update with the January 2023 security patch after some of its predecessors, such as the Galaxy A50, A52 and A52s 5G.
But the wait for the January security update for Galaxy A53 owners should finally be over.
