Nevertheless, as appealing as the A53 is, its plastic body and Gorilla Glass 5 screen wouldn't fail to keep you reminded how 'not premium' your device is, especially in the event of an accident. However, by getting one of the best Galaxy A53 screen protectors, and a superb case from our collection, you can overcome this ‘one and only’ flaw of your excellent smartphone!
