Good, I already own a stove. 😜

    In 2023 the A24 / A34 / A54 despite the other specs all had the same memory configurations

    This years A25 / A35 / A55 did not.
    The A55 omitted the 6Gb /128 Gb option, the base model 8Gb / 128Gb so makes it comparable to the S23 FE

    This maybe a reason.
    I have previously posted on these 3 phones a number of times, here an earlier post submitted BEFORE this article.

        Storage? This one I can agree.

        Though, RAM is the one they should be worried about.

                  Now compare the number of user of Galaxy A54 vs Poco F5.

                  The most possible way to make phone with zero problem is to have zero number of user. Zero user = zero complain.

That's what you got from buying something with Exynos lol.

                      Well, the reason is simple. Majority of Americans buy their phones through carrier contracts. The Galaxy S23FE is already available for FREE with contract. Where would the A55 fit if the S23FE is already at zero dollar?

                          2. Galaxy A55 (Exynos1480) has quite similar performance as the Galaxy S21 (SD888).

                            The A55 is going to be such a tiny change compared to last year that even Samsung won't bother with its availability. They had a winner with the A34 and they're just going to continue with that.

                                    Crazy how they wrote this review a day after I posted a comment saying that A55 won't be coming ANYTIME soon to the US. Don't believe me? Check my comment history

                                      rizki1, 12 Mar 2024US knows this phone is average..Using your logic..you could say almost every chinese phone is below average then, since only small number of chinese phone were offcially sold in the US.
