The Samsung Galaxy A52 is a mid-range Android-based smartphone developed and manufactured by Samsung Electronics as a part of its Galaxy A series. The phone was announced on 17 March 2021 at Samsung's virtual Awesome Unpacked event alongside the Galaxy A72.

It serves as the successor of the Galaxy A51. It is similar to its predecessor, but features an upgraded 64 MP main camera, an increased-capacity 4500 mAh battery, and IP67 water and dust resistance.

An upgraded device, Galaxy A52s, was first released in August 2021 with a different chipset (Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G), Wi-Fi 6 support and a new device color (Awesome Mint).

On 8 April 2025, Samsung stopped security updates to the phone.
