PureOS, 27 Mar 2024They improved this segment. I also tested sd 4 gen 2 which ... moreBut..but..chinese phone lover hate Samsung. They'd rather take phone with more inferior Snapdragon chip, than to take phone with Samsung logo on it.🤫

    Those cons are manageable. The os updates and ui experience is the key. And also the camera.

      No charger included is the end of the read for me.

          And if not, the beloved smartphone benchmarks decide the battle, A55 is an over 20% upgrade over A52s. Sure, it's not a 2 generational upgrade, but it is something.

                The exynos 1480 is actually quite impressive and a big upgrade over its predecessor. However, apart from that the phone is very similar to last year's model in other areas

Photos look natural, not over processed or over sharpened. And I'm on the latest android version and security patch. I think people give it an unfairly hard time just based on its spec sheet.
                    Also the phone isn't laggy or slow at all, despite me having more than a 100 tabs open on the browser at times. I think people just look at the med range cpu on the spec sheet and bash it without ever using it :)

                      I ask, but is Samsung capable or not of making a software update to the cameras of the a55 and a54, or does the fact that they take lousy photos compared to the competition not really interest them?

                        The lack of AV1 support is a museum these days. Then it is not a smartphone that will last for years.

                          "The Mali-G88 MP5 GPU, however, has been replaced by the Xclipse 530 GPU, co-developed with AMD and based on the RDNA 2 architecture."

                          It is RDNA 2, but according to Samsung's official website, the A55 doesn't support AV1 decoding, or someone forgot to write about it. :/

                            Kangal, 28 Mar 2024Is it though? That old Qualcomm Snapdragon (QSD 778) was a... moreExynos 1480 and sd 7 gen 3 are spiritual successor to 778G, 7+ gen 2 is different category.

                            778G was all about efficiency and battery life, there was sd 870, 860 and dimensity 8100 at that time but they fill different category.

                            7+ gen 2 is more of 870 successor for Enthuasist market.

                                        Xiaomi always looking better because they have 2 or 3 version of the same phone through the year. They are constantly making new phones, because they have a different bussiness model then anyone else on the market. But who cares right?

                                        And you.. phone elitists and geeks all around the globe knows they have to pump new models all the time and that they have software issues...
                                        But who fricking cares right? Xiaomi has always look better in design and specs then Samsung or any western brand phone, because of their bussiness model. I know.. who fricking cares for Xiaomi different bussiness model because all you care is pricing and specs right? And those are ALWAYS better then anything from west. Who cares why. Nobody! Rightttt.
