It comes with a (25W) Fast Charger, here in my country. So maybe it's a demographic thing? Samsung has done this before, like certain places got different headsets, or dongles, etc etc... so if you're right, then I suspect that is the case.
But at least you get Something in the box, and you don't get ripped off paying a high-price for a charger like in the Apple Store.

I was VERY surprised when I saw the benchmarks for the GPU. It is slower than the QSD 865 but slightly faster than the QSD 860, 855+, 855. This is not a "7-series" chipset like the others, it is actually a Flagship Chipset.
On top of this, it is a Snapdragon. So there is more optimisations on the driver side. So not only are the radios usually more accurate, but the graphics are great. For instance, try running a demanding emulator, like the PS2, Wii, or Switch, and it runs noticeably better compared to competing chipsets such as Exynos, Kirin, MediaTek, and others. You can see videos of this on YouTube if you don't take my word for it.

And I saw lot of YouTube videos sd 778G even in stress test can sustain more than 90% of its perfomance while sd 860 can lose more than 30%. Of its power.
And amazing thing sd 778 achieve these score with low frequency, in cpu it peak at just 2.4ghz and gpu just 490mhz,
So In Real life I will take sd 778G over sd 855/860 any day. This Soc is perfect for long session Gaming.

I on the other hand am very happy with my Dim.1200 powered X7 Max!
Anonymous, 30 Sep 2021Forget it, better phones availableWell, obviously. You could apply your comment to every midranger. Of course there will be better phones available than every midranger
Hemedans, 29 Sep 2021"The Galaxy M52s 5G is a surprisingly competent video recorder" you guys wrote m5... moreThat's just one of the many typos in this review and a minor one anyway. But hey, let's be glad there is a good review of this phone because it's almost the same as the base A52 model. What I find a little more annoying is the Specification list for this device, it says bluetooth 5.0 but in the review they mention 5.2. That's a hardware difference and not just a little typo so where is the truth in this?
Forget it, better phones available
Also, this phone basically has no competition.
If you want a phone with a flagship chipset, waterproof, and 120Hz display... you won't find that from the competitors at this price. And even when you do, those phones will lack a microSD slot and the Headphone Jack. And yes, this phone comes with a 25W fast-charger in the box.
The only direct competitors to this phone is the Samsung S10/e/+ (but lacks 120Hz), or the Sony Xperia 5.2, Sony 5.3, and Sony Xperia 1 mk iii.
Overall, good job Samsung!
Just to put it on the record, the QSD 778 is basically the same as the QSD 780.
And both of these chipsets are slightly faster than the QSD 855, 855+, 860. And they are slightly slower than the QSD 865, 865+, 870. So all-in-all this is a Flagship Chipset.
The QSD 888 and QSD 888+ are less efficient and throttle, so they are actually not faster than the QSD 870 either. They win on-paper and on synthetic benchmarks, but not so in-practice.
Due to digitizer issues the S20 FE is a bad idea to get.
As for A52s, solid phone but overpriced even for a Samsung.
I need this products
Glad to see my X7 Max beating it in performance!! while being almost 10k cheaper for 12+256GB
