Samsung Galaxy A55 5G | Unboxing & 100 Hour Review

Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G, with a four day review of the camera tech, gaming performance and beyond. Vs the A54, this year's Galaxy A55 5G feels more premium and boasts some slight specs upgrades. But is Samsung's latest one of the best mid-range smartphones of 2024?

The most immediate difference is the design. Not only is the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G bigger than the A54 at 6.6-inches, it also feels far more premium. It's also sadly more iPhone-esque with its flatter edges, but hey ho. That camera setup is very similar, although now it feels faster - while gaming on Genshin Impact is also an improved experience. The Galaxy A55 will blaze through titles like PubG, Call of Duty etc.

Battery life so far has been the same as before. Samsung has crammed a 5000mAh cell in here and it'll last you all day if you don't go nuts with the camera or gaming. Charging is still tediously slow however, while OneUI 6.1 is lacking the AI elements that made the S24 series a bit more interesting.

So that in a nutshell is the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G. If you've been using this mighty mid-range phone as your own blower, let us know your review below! Check out my round up of the best smartphones to suit a mid-range budget for more rivals.
