The Truth About Samsung Galaxy A55 After Months of Use

[@Geekception]

SHOCKING Results! Galaxy A55 vs Xiaomi 14T Pro Camera Test kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6nMh2VsYr-ceNE

[@jjjjjjjjjjjinnnn2323]

I bought A55 5G just a few days ago. I was using Huawei P30 for years, but then its motherboard broke down 4 months ago. Luckily, my bro still got his old Huawei P20 Pro. I used it for a few months,but it's rather old and lags a few times... and I finally decided to get a new phone that's priced reasonably and can last long. So far, I've been enjoying my Samsung A55 5G. It feels premium, and the build quality is similar to flagship phones! I'm very new to OneUI, and it's definitely sleek and visually appealing. So far, I'm happy with this purchase. The battery can last for more than 24 hours of minimal usage like mobile browsing, playing music and video clips.

[@rytmydjembe]

This is amazing, how many comments is bought by samsung

[@jjjjjjjjjjjinnnn2323]

@rytmydjembe bruh i literally paid for the phone with my own money 🙄

Ok review, thanks - its nice to know the differences with the S24 but I don't like the A55 being compared to the S24 all the time. It would've been better to either compare it to the A54 or with other brands of the same price range.

[@Geekception]

[@jarvis2.081]

it is also good to compare a midrange phone over a flagship one. So we can see how much difference they have, which money worth the most. :D

Upgraded from the A12 to the A55, and it's so refreshing to use and see the upgrades Samsung has added, especially with the lockscreen and AOD, I personally enjoy photography so being able to take better pictures during the day and night is a bonus for me...and the speaker!!! 😮😮 As someone who has been using the A series since day 1, I was shocked to hear how loud the speaker is compared to the A12. Also Samsung in general offers updates every now and then so that isn't new

I can't wait until I get my s25 ultra

[@streamtabulous]

macro is important, its extremely good for skin checks on moles etc, life saver literally, ps battery charging settings, turn on super fast charge will fully charged in 20min, it's off by default as warns shortens battery life. i just set a modes called fast change to enable when in a rush.. what i want to know is issues encountered

[@LotusLover123]

Its low res, its actually better quality to use the zoom feature as a macro instead. Its a waste of space in the phone to just have the edition of an extra camera that is useless, and the space could be used for something more usefull instead.

[@streamtabulous]

@@LotusLover123 zoom doesn't show what your looking for in skin checks macro does, but i have my eye on usb macro attachment for myself atm

Hi, Thanks for the info. at the moment I'm using the a13 but you have made the choice for me... I'm getting the a55 this week. btw i'm in the uk.

[@akirisalvation9065]

[@lucwijngaard8413]

I'm heavily considering switching from the A52s to this, since my A52s got damaged unfortunately. Apart from the camera it seems like an upgrade

[@justcam_28]

I bought the Samsung Galaxy A55 in May from my local Samsung store. I have loved it ever since and I can say that it is the best smartphone I have ever had in my life. At just £500 (UK Currency) it's a really impressive device. It may not have the latest flagship Samsung AI features but if you are not going to use those features then it's not a big deal. The cameras are pretty decent too (I don't use my cameras very much so I didn't see the point in spending double the price just for great cameras). It feels very comfortable in my hands and I love how they have added a metal frame to make it more protected. I bought the Ice Blue colour when I purchased the phone. I got home to realise that the phone doesn't really look as blue like it is in the ads My overall review on the phone is that I really love it and it's incredible for just £500 I even got a pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds FE with it for *FREE*

[@milodemoray]

I would have to say, that even other device makers who are selling their phones at the same price point as the A55 won't support their devices for the same amount of time. Between Apple, Google Pixel, and Samsung, who are the only companies who do this at this point in time. Maybe Huawei will also step up their updates for their own midrange devices.

the 25w charger doesnt bother me because samsung is just trying to help us care for our device. Using higher w can charge your phone faster but can also damage the battery life easily so... 🤗

[@Geekception]

Yeah I agree, but I'd still want the possibility at least. Sometimes I just need a quick top up without waiting an hour

[@MLWJ1993]

It would've been a welcome option (off by default), but I don't particularly miss it personally. That said, I've never owned a high end smartphone because I don't need the extra features I'd get there. So maybe I'm a lot more forgiving than a smartphone reviewer. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Geekception]

@@MLWJ1993 yeah, i hear you. thanks for sharing your perspective

[@jaylikesfrieskekwxdxdxd]

​@@Geekception yeah tbh one of the reasons why I tried but could not adjust to samsung, pixel and apple phones. Having to wait for more than an hour sucks just to be fully charged. So many people say"it's to protect the battery". Battery replacements are cheap compared to having to worry about "damaging the phone battery" every single time. I'm tired of people making terrible excuses for having awful charging speeds in 2024.

[@Geekception]

@@jaylikesfrieskekwxdxdxd yup, this 100% it still happened to me yesterday. i was about to go out, but nope, gotta wait more than an hour to charge. it's one of those things that is annoying, not life changing but annoying nonetheless

[@SaadBorr]

Thanks man, very informative video, appreciate you. 🙏🏼 Just what about the speakers loudness & sound quality comparing to s24 series?

[@prymus1005]

Hi. Can you tell me, that after you installed everything you use daily, did you experienced slow down? Or for example the camera app can open inmedatelly or stuttering at open or opens but at the start of the video recording it puts stutters in it? My A52s does this and I am very curious if A55 still has, because when I checked A55 in a shop I saw stutters here and there but those were advertising menu mainly. And I am interesting in FHD 60Fps video recording. It crops a lot in A52s. Is it still does the same? Xiaomi redmi note 13 pro+ doesn't do that. Similar price range. Could you share your experience? (Usually I want to make very fast point a shoot picture, because my boys just are fast and with th A52s I usually late to take the pfoto, jast dtanding there and waiting like a fool. So I use for that a iPhone 13 Mini to be able to grab it in any situation, but it would be very interesting to know for me how fast you can shoot a picture with A55, when every app is syncing doing their work in background and I am afraid it can still slow down in that situation or put stutters into the start of the video or crops too much.)

[@vlashante]

I cant agree with lightness because I came from A34 whos wight is 199g compering to 213 right now and you can easily feel it, and with A34 never have fear of dropping due to plastic frame and back, but hey its mine half of mounth with A55, it is better with battery to me.

[@korbindallas1207]

[@RWD_Faiz]

@korbindallas1207 went and bought the galaxy 24 fe instead of the a55. But i think your comment is true. The a55 is well worth it as a replacement for the flip 3. The AI features on the galaxy 24fe isnt worth the extra premium. I think i've used it one or twice to test but that's about it.

[@korbindallas1207]

Yes. The feel is premium does all I want and more £230 uk pounds and 4 updates . I'm not paying for flagship phones when I can buy this a55, it's brilliant for what I paid.

[@AK-ny5bz]

did samsung solve finger priint problem?

[@732daven]

the fast charging option is only useful if you have 15mn to charge your phone, like when traveling over 48 hours from Europe to the middle of the pacific ocean or let's say if you do bike packing with stealth camping, and you only have 15 mn to charge your phone in the toilets of a camping / cofee shop / etc. Yeah, for those type of scenari you are better off getting a different phone with faster charging features....but otherwise this A55 is great. I particularly like the flawless dual sim feature (nano-esim or nano nano) which always work well in Asia and the 4 years guaranted OS upgrades

[@SasukeUchiha269]
