What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

Galaxy A55 5G
across 5 reviews
3.5/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • Aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass Victus+ front give it a genuinely premium build that rivals flagship feel
  • 5,000 mAh battery delivers strong all-day endurance across multiple reviewer stress tests
  • 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display is sharp, bright, and smooth at 120 Hz
Reviewers push back
  • Exynos 1480 chipset shows throttling and struggles with demanding games at high settings, running noticeably warm under load
  • Under-display optical fingerprint sensor is slower and less consistent than ultrasonic alternatives
  • No headphone jack, no charger in the box, and limited flagship AI software features
A well-built mid-range phone with a premium aluminum-and-glass frame, strong battery life, and solid cameras, held back by a middling Exynos chipset and a few software annoyances.
— best for: Someone who wants a flagship-looking and feeling phone for everyday tasks, social media, video consumption, and casual gaming without paying flagship prices.

I was at first apprehensive coming to this phone. I was just parting with my S22 Ultra and was expecting a downgrade in most departments. I was surprised when the regular Pictures from the main camera sensor appeared better than the S22 Ultra aswell as stronger performance in gaming. The Display is also much brighter with thin bezzles which aid the elegance. The battery optimization is much better Ollie458 · Samsung
