bot killer, 13 Feb 2025S21 is better than A55/56, that's reality, A series wi... moreI agree somewhat, as I own both the A55 and the S21 plus. The S21 being a 4 year old device is still slightly faster than the A55, and this is also reflected in the geekbench scores which show the S21 scoring slightly higher on multicore performance. The biggest difference I noticed is the RAM management of the S21 is significantly better than the A55. This is very telling, because while the A55 rocks an Exynos 1480 chip on a 4nm process, it throttles and lags while multitasking and opening and closing multiple apps. I have no such problems on my S21 Plus, which is 3 years older and uses an older SD 888 Chip, but is still plenty fast as of today. I really wish Samsung would have stuck with MediaTek chips for their midrange phones like they used in the A34. I bounce back and forth between my S21 plus and the A55. All that being said, while the A55 is a midrange device, it feels like a premium device in hand as its made from premium gorilla glass victus on the front, gorilla glass on the back and an aluminum frame. The only thing you're really missing out on is the flagship chip and wireless charging. However, the fact that it has a premium build and SD card storage makes it a huge draw. I have the 256GB/8GB variety and a 500GB SD card installed. Add to that the fact that it's running the latest (or will be) Android version, and it's a great bargain. Plus you'll be getting 4 Android updates, so you'll get up to Android 18. This is the most premium level midrange device Samsung has ever made, not counting the FE phones which fall somewhere in between the Flagships and Midrangers.

            The phone is very good for the price. With the A56 it will become even more affordable. But the Pixel 9a will be interesting too in this segment.

                      Depends on where you are but you can get a S24 FE for only $100 USD more, and that's a much better phone than the A55.

Also, the Edge 50 Fusion namesake is a better alternative as well. I could've included the Honor X9c, if it wasn't for the terrible ultrawide camera and poor software support.

IMHO that is the best middle ground between any Chinese phone and Samsung S series. I could even exaggerate a bit saying that S series is kinda offering too little extra for 3x the money for A5x.. i don't think you would miss anything from S series and at the same time won't see any drawbacks of low end phones with crappy software.. just 2c

                              If it were purely based on hardware, I would buy only Xiaomi phones and never look back. But it isn't, and I've always disliked Samsung budget (and I mean low-mid range. I love their FE series) phones, always will. Budget is not the correct word to use for them. Unfortunately, Chinese phone companies restrict users, MiUi for example not even letting you choose the accent colours then they do things like putting 'beauty' filters in the camera software (not as bad as you see on the news, it's skin smoothing but it's very obvious), and they make it as far from Android as possible. I've tried flashing a custom ROM to my Xiaomi Phone, it doesn't go well. They are so awkward to create custom ROMs for and special made GSIs and Custom Recoveries brick them. I HATE the onscreen fingerprint reader (we should never have moved on from side mounted), I HATE the thick bezels, I HATE the lack of a 3.5mm jack, I HATE the lack of hardware features like IR port and... a real proximity sensor. It feels like buying an iPhone, getting so little hardware for your money. But damnit their software's good, I've seen Good Lock, Alas, out of lack of choice, I am going with the Galaxy A55.

                                Even my Note 10 Lite from 5 years ago could do 4K@30/60fps and 1080p@30/60/240fps

                                  Samsung should stop manufacturing mobiles with virtual proximity sensor in it. Very important and crucial sensor is not the hardware one. This is a huge problem for the users to use the phone under direct sun light or shade during day time or in pitch dark in night. phone behaves very weird and even it doesn't responds properly to our input.
