A55 is slightly bigger than s24+ and not as big as s24 ultra. Its bezels are noticeable and for the price it is not acceptable. The exynos 1480 is better than the previous 1380. But, for the price range and future use, it is not good. The phone is 35°C normally and when used, it goes up. The weight of the device is 213g, that is close to s24 ultra. The camera performance is average and the macros lens is useless and I dont know why a phone of this segment don't have telephoto lens.

Overall, I think A55 is a filler phone this year. I won't recommend it for any user, even normal users since after 2 years it will show lag. Off the 4 updates, 2 is enough to make exynos 1480 lag.

New info after the initial post.
Some users have problems with fingerprint sensor. Interested readers can goggle it. Proximity sensor have issues sometimes. I saw a detailed opinion/review of A55 while browsing online. I am sharing the post/link that I came across online here.


The idle temperature while charging my phone is 38° and 39°. At night it is 35°.

Sorry to hear that. I dont have the issue you mentioned so far. Even I am not happy with my purchase. Make a post under A55 mentioning your experience so that others can make a wise decision when considering A55 as their next phone and existing users can check their phone for the issue you mentioned.
