Samsung Galaxy A55 5G Review: Should You Buy in 10 Points

Vanshika Malhotra

The Galaxy A55 looks just like any other Galaxy phone (even gives the Galaxy S24/S24+ vibes) and hence, doesn’t bring an “oomph” factor. But the simple design approach is equally attractive.

Design

The Super AMOLED display on the Galaxy A55 is slightly bigger than the outgoing model. It still offers an excellent viewing experience with vivid colours when consuming content on any platform.

Display

The Galaxy A55, with its new Exynos 1480 chipset, performs smoothly. Texting, browsing social media, and shopping are effortless, and switching between apps is quick.

Performance

The Galaxy A55 runs One UI 6.0 based on Android 14. You get a clean experience with some pre-loaded apps like Amazon, Snapchat, Netflix, PhonePe, and more.

UI

The camera output of the 50-megapixel main camera captures good, Instagram-ready pictures. The colours are mostly balanced with slightly enhanced contrast, making the photos punchier.

Camera

The 5,000mAh battery of the Galaxy A55 is more than enough to last for a day with moderate to heavy usage.

Battery

The Galaxy A55 is a solid mid-range phone with a minimal design, good display quality, and a reliable Exynos chipset.

Verdict

- Sturdy and good quality - A long-lasting battery - Good UI experience - Bright and vivid display

What is Good?

- No charger in the box, slow charging - Can get warm during gaming - Some bloatware apps
