Please note, Samsung has made recent changes in their display colour saturation. Displays in recent A and S series are less vivid as compared to previous models. Everyone has noticed it. Displays show washed out colours. So please think twice before buying current A & S series phones.
also cameras of A55/A35 are bad. cannot take proper pictures of trees, grass or any type of vegetation. very noisy. these cameras will only perform if you are under a bright, sunny day. but if you are in a little bit less lighting conditions then these cameras are total garbage. was not expecting such below standard outcome from Samsung A series which tells camera as one of their strongest points. will give 5/10 on camera.

I bought this phone a week ago, and I’m having issues with WhatsApp video calls to iPhones. The voice and video quality keep breaking up during calls, especially when calling from other countries to Indian iPhones. I’m not satisfied with this performance. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with their phone? Any solutions or suggestions would be appreciated

I just got this phone 2 days back. One of the worst selfie camera. Picture quality is like 2020 midrange phone. Back camera is OK. But I can't digest why selfie is so dull skin tone sharpness everything is shit

Just ran it again to prove you wrong, and it did 3132 score :)
It is a mistery for me, cause the Geekbench keeps history and I see 2 records for 4000+ score. (OpenCL).

Tensors? They score pretty good, tbh. People just like complaining. Everything past 2000 is good enough. Depends a lot on UI, as well. Stock UI = fastest UX.

By the way, after the latest update, the GPU score in Geekbench 6 upped with 25%.
It was 4000 something out of the box when I got it, then after the first updates it dropped to 3000 something, and now its back to 4000.
These scores do not matter that much, what matters though is, that they do show Samsung are working on optimising the device.
Although I enjoy the a54 a bit more, at the moment, the a55 comes with LPDDR5 and the A78's in it are clocked higher, while the device itself runs a lot cooler.
This comes as a side note, cause in theory a35 should be the better buy money wise (its the same display), but it has the SOC from the a54, and the Exynos 1380 I know from first hand experience - does overheat a lot and drains battery fast.

nicky, 11 Mar 2024...and if you have A52s, then still no reason to upgradeExcept the 4 major Android updates you'd get with the A55, which would mean official support until 2028. Even if you don't care about updating the OS itself, security patches are important.
