80	NDTV Gadgets | Roydon Cerejo If the Samsung name and features such as the IP rating and stereo speakers are what drew you towards the Galaxy A72, I'd suggest buying the Galaxy A52 instead and saving some money. Read full review
80	The Indian Express | Shruti Dhapola The Samsung Galaxy A72 stands out is the camera and the battery life. The performance is good enough for this to be a daily driver, but might not appeal to those who want more from a gaming perspective. Read full review

80	NextPit | Camila Rinaldi the Samsung Galaxy A72 is an excellent mid-range device... What I have against this smartphone is negligible, apart from the missed opportunity to achieve perfection by including a better processor and "faster" fast charging. Read full review
74	TechPP (Technology Personalized) | Akriti Rana The Galaxy A72 is a very good phone, but it does not stand out from the competition on any parameter other than design. If only they had given some Complan to that processor too! Right now, it seems more like the Galaxy A52 Plus than the Galaxy A72. Read full review
70	91mobiles | Deepak Dhingra For most intents and purposes, the Galaxy A52 should be able to deliver the same experience as the Galaxy A72, for a lower price. Go for the Galaxy A72 if its larger screen and IP67 rating appeal to you… with the latter being one of its most standout features, and something that rivals can't match. Read full review
70	Android Central | Harish Jonnalagadda The Galaxy A72 nails the basics... But the fact that there's no 5G here makes it a non-starter in global markets, and you also have to contend with a lot of bloatware. Read full review
