Changing the default language on a Samsung device is effortless. All you have to do is access the Language settings menu under General management.

Steps to change/set default language on Galaxy A53 5g
The following steps will take you to the One UI settings menu where you can find a list of available languages to use and replace the default system language on your Galaxy phone. These steps are also applicable when altering the default language settings on other Samsung phones running on Android 12 with One UI 4 or later OS version.
The actual interface on some device may vary slightly given that actual screens and menu options likewise vary between device models and service providers.

Once you’ve got everything set, you may go ahead and proceed with these steps.
Step 1: To get started, tap Settings from the Home screen or Apps tray to launch the settings app menu.
