Why

Think Bank . 2 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Why did you switch from the Snapdragon processor. It is noticeably slower and unresponsive. It's not even close to the same phone as the a52.

what does prepaid mean

Answer from Vandy1 year

Prepaid means to pay before a service is applied to your device. Very different from postpaid where you pay for your service on a set date.

Was this answer helpful?

Answer from Samsung2 years

Hey there Jerry, thank you for finding the available time out of your day to ask your question about the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G UW. With prepaid phones, payment for service is made before use. As calls and texts are made, and as data is used, deductions are made against the prepaid balance amount until no funds remain. These devices are also known as pay-as-you-go, pay and go, go-phone, prepay, or burner phones. Please feel free to reach out to Samsung Support with any additional questions you think of. Thank you for being a valued Samsung customer. - Debra
