Sadie Bell from Billboard considered "Angel" as a "different direction" for the group describing it as "a bit harder than their [previous] releases."[1] Madeline Roth of MTV News praised its production that "Angel" is "less poppier" than Fifth Harmony's previous single “Down", providing a "harder backdrop for their brassiness."[2] Cameron Cook of Pitchfork website said that the chorus of the song sounds repetitive because the members haven not said much of "anything during the entire time." Aside the negative commentary, Cook also affirmated that "Angel" uses the trap instrumentation as "advantage" to do not become a bad song. Katherine St. Asaph from Spin deemed it a good record however, she felt the pitch-shifted vocal synth effect added by Skrillex sounds "dated".
