Samsung Galaxy A55 Review - A DOWNGRADE from the Galaxy A54?

[@oscarmini]

Do you think the Galaxy A55 is a worthy UPGRADE?

Nope

Wel how much is the A55?

[@assooragg]

No, because I have an A34, and it's just great. thanks for the review. Also, you helped me get my money 💰 worth.

[@jabzkeepit3519]

9:27 The difference I noticed is the color of shirt and the color of the trees in the background. Personally I prefer the A55's video processing because the background has more highlight control where it doesn't look overexposed.

[@MrBoring-mu4dt]

First time viewer now subscribed also. Your presentation was excellent with a clear voice and all the relative information I was looking for. I've the A54 5g and will be staying with this as the A55 doesn't personally seem worth the upgrade. The A54 5G has since updated to Andriod 14 with the One UI 6.0 Thank you.

[@oscarmini]

Thanks for stopping by Mr Boring. I appreciate your kind words. 🙏

[@aritanashrah4661]

Hey I have the A54 as well (got it last month) and since it got the one ui 6.0 update, the software messed up my camera, and display, turned it all yellow tint ish and I ABSOLUTELY HATE IT 😭😭 Makes my pictures look overly saturated, my skintone turns turmeric yellow. And the display has this yellow tint to it as well. Does yours have any software issues with the one ui 6.0 ?

[@karara5532]

​@@aritanashrah4661is the eye comfort sheild enabled? Is the camera in pro mode? Both of these can cause such problems

@@little_flower_ sounds like a personal problem because my A55's camera is definitely better than my A52

[@laurencemallari5101]

@hannahtwinbelinda it depends on the deals in your region. In my country, the base model S24 is over twice the price of the A55. I'm someone who doesn't want to spend too much on mobile devices, so buying the S24 hasn't even crossed my mind.

[@zeusanderson4259]

I just bought this and waiting for delivery. Upgrading from a still fully functional a50 to a55 due to work access requiring android 12 and up devices. Excited!

[@oscarmini]

That's a worthy upgrade. 👍

Hey, you got some good use out of that old phone! Congrats.

[@farissan6631]

Could you update me with how you find the device? I am currently still using my A50, but I need a new device, because the battery is starting to die. I also really really hate this iphone looking design on the a55 and prefer the shape of a50, but Samsung is not making devices like it anymore

[@SamBz46]

can you give us updates every now and then. I have an A50s and want to upgrade but I'm not sure wich one to pick. and btw how did you buy new bleutooth headphones?

[@emka9537]

Redmi no other option

[@23tetus]

Your review has led me to decide to gift the A54 to my wife, since the actual price difference is really big. That difference in price does not justify the barely improved a55 (In my case). Thanks a lot, new subscriber. Great job, very nice content.

[@oscarmini]

I'm glad you found the video helpful. Also, thanks for the sub. 🙏

[@juanmiguel7180]

People should know what they are buying. You can just browse Google to see what entry-level, midrange, and flagship phones are all about. The Samsung Galaxy A55 5G is a fantastic top-tier midrange that perfectly complements my compact flagship, the Samsung Galaxy S24.

[@MarketingWith.kendrick]

Damn thanks alott... You jus made the hard choice for me... I'll just go ahead and get the A54 instead 1❤

[@chizuruobioma9415]

My dear brother, you are doing well. I enjoy your review a lot. Did you say there's no 4k stabilization in front camera, because I didn't notice any wobbling when you were doing the comparison. Please, how can I get Galaxy A55 in Nigeria, I can see you are in Abuja.

[@oscarmini]

Hello, thanks for watching. I had a text prompt about the stability for videos. It's in there. I think you can get this from computer village in Lagos.

[@oludiranjohn4712]

It's more like an A54s instead of A55

[@The_Maverick_Man]

Honestly

[@aka-Jester]

They should actually release a A55s version with snapdragon 7 gen 3 or something.

[@vtz2002]

Now everyone can literally said : hey I own an s24 😂

[@UNDERSCOREZERO_0]

Why?

[@AppleHead__]

​@aka-Jester Atleast if they added a processor like snapdragon 855 its from 2018 like cmon

Clickbait title. CPU is between 20 and 30 percent improved, and GPU much improved. And the A35 now has the cpu that A54 did, btw.

[@inteli3i5i7]

Your benchmark scores are weird. I think your A55 is throttling, as shown by the high temprature rating. Other reviewers are getting significantly higher scores on the A55 in antutu and geekbench multi-core.

U can also use an sd card, 1 physical sim and an e-sim

[@MbalenhleQwabe]

You really give great reviews, hey... thanks 😊.

You think the a55 is an upgrade for the Galaxy s10 or more like a downgrade? My main fokus is the camera

[@tomxyy]

Yes or if you can get the S23 that will be good also

[@oscarmini]

Personally, I'd go with the A55 in 2024. The cameras will rival the s10 and win in most aspects. Also, you get a durable build, more recent OS, more OS updates into the future, better battery life, and arguably, a better processor. I mean, if that isn't an upgrade, I wonder what is.

​@@oscarminiyes, sounds line an upgrade to me.. but most people tell me the galaxy is still better also because it was like "the last true flagship of samsung" is what people keep telling..

[@plumppimpin5138]

been using an s20+ and been looking for something that isn't flagship price. would this be a good phone to get? looking for a similar experience to what i have now and was wondering if this can compare to a 3+ year old flagship

[@amaranto2282]

I upgraded from that Phone and it has poner enough i feel better especiales in battery speed shoot camera, you wont notice a big chance but in battery life yes, overall is better the A55 except in little details as wireless charging etc

i would not call it a downgrade quiet yet, the processor of the a55 is faster than the one from the a54 but keep in mind the a55 processor is still new and needs a bunch of updates until its "perfect"

Can you tell me how good are the speakers of a55, I have it and it sounds terrible, sounds like it only has a mono speaker not stereo, also even with the dolby atmos enable it sounds the same way, is it that my a55 has the speakers damaged? I just got it and my old s9 sounds better than it, thank you.

[@amaranto2282]

I know what you saying, sounds good and clear but not loud enough thats what you said? Because i comparado with s20fe and s20+ and sounds more clear A55 but less loud

[@primariaocnasibiului3515]

Exactly! I notice the same aspect. Just yesterday bought A55. When compared sound with A54, just total disappointment. Sound like mono.

[@khyberwolf]

Main thing is charger if there is no charger then im not going to buy everyone should boycott

I will not pay full price with no charger. If they want to cheat us, then I will buy them on port in specials, used, etc. for much cheaper.

[@asororichard2044]

If owned the A54 before now then I don't think there is a need to migrate to a55 because the different is not really much, and if you're talking about the Google pixel there's something I noticed in this generation that no matter clear the level of your mobile it's, most people's retouch their picture before sharing it on social media, if can own the A54 self I be oga and maybe I could have start my content creating self, God pls show me love and same time thank you Oscar for this and at we all learned something.

The design is what turns me off from A devices right now. I hate this Iphone look. I liked the original design they had in A50 and A51 way more. This is why I am still using an A50, but I might upgrade because my battery is dying.

The original designs were trash bruv what you talking about? Especially the camera💀

[@farissan6631]

​@@justsomedogwithamoustache.9324the camera island looked way better and the slightly edged screen is way better to look at than just a flat piece of glass. The device just overall had an original look, not a cheap iphone look. Also who unitonically uses bruv and skull emoji, are you 5?

[@justsomedogwithamoustache.9324]

@@farissan6631 Firstly, the camera island didn't look good and a flat display is what most people like rather than a curved one since functionality over form is what matters. Secondly, the iphone look you be speaking is cuz of the flat body but don't a lot of androids do rounded body? Where's the originality there? The design you like would be old and not innovative just like this one. You like a phone based on design and you trying to shit on my use of words like bruv and emojis? The moment you tried to shit on me based my writing style instead of countering me with actual points you lost your credibility to hold your statement.

[@pepoaudi8253]

How much improvements in gaming 20%?

The real question is what's better the s23FE or A55?

[@oscarmini]

Obviously the S23FE

[@robertvogt1527]

That was a 8a you had in your left hand,not a 7a. I've been using the 8a now for about a month, I'll be trading it in for a a55 as soon as I get the chance. I don't hate google, it's just that the 8a isn't worth the hype or money. Jittery and stuttering straight out of the box. Random shutdowns of the Internet, and in my opinion,just isn't as refined as Samsung is. Put it this way,my 4 plus year old Samsung Galaxy s20 with the dreaded crapsynos 990 chipset actually runs smoother than this titan gen 3. Don't get me wrong, it's not unusable, it's just way too frustrating for me to use.

Upgrading from Samsung A70 to A55 is it worth it??

[@MZRTMusic254]

Yeah but you can also consider S23 FE

[@y09297]

For me the biggest draw of Samsung phones is the guaranteed Android updates + OLED panel. Apart from that, this phone is almost a rip-off considering competitors from other brands. The price is a bit high, software features are removed to differentiate it from its flagships, no charger or accessories.. If Moto, Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo etc. could get their act together and guarantee at least 3 yrs of timely Android OS updates, Samsung could possibly no longer be so popular. In the meantime I will try to hold on to my aging Huawei from 2017 for as long as I can 😆

[@ultimateg93]

Congratulations on the clickbait I still prefer my Samsung A52s 5g

[@aritanashrah4661]

The only reason i wanna update to the A55 is because of the software. The one ui 6.0 on my a54 is really wack it ruined the camera it makes all my photos extra saturated and my brown skin turns turmeric yellow. Also the display has a yellow tint to it no matter what you do or view, you have to tilt your screen a certain way to get rid of it 😭. But performance wise the a54 is really good especially for multitasking. I don't think i have the patience to wait for the one ui 6.1 update on my A54 that's why I was thinking about the switch.

A55 has noticeably better battery but camera quality is quite a bit worse. Pixel 8 has wireless charging but no SD card. It does perform better for gaming, but it's not as long-lasting as the A55 as far as I'm concerned. Hard to tell between the two. Tbh, I would just buy a Pixel 7 Pro 😂

[@TechnologyMan9575]

This title is clickbait! There is no downgrade discussed, and I have heard of no rumors of a downgrade. There was no reason to write "DOWNGRADE"! Iam sorry that I fell for your trick, but I have learned not to trust your channel again. Also, in this video, and in your A35 video, I noticed that your Geekbench scores are not accurate, and do not match geekbench testing elsewhere. You should clear out your background apps and wait a minute before testing on geekbench for accurate numbers. You, and some other reviewers, need to spend more time researching and giving accurate information as not to mislead others. Especially if this is your profession. Also, you said that you prefer small phones, but you like the A55 design more? That makes no sense. I am not impressed here.
