Samsung have released a fair share of problematic devices time from time, regardless if they're expensive or cheap.
I agree thinner bezels make a phone more prone to accidental touches, but they also make a phone more modern and premium. Looks matter just as much as function.
When Samsung, one of the world's largest manufacturers for OLED displays are still stuck with notches and thicker bezels compared to the rest of the competition, shouldn't they be ashamed?

pane, 17 Jul 2024you forgot to list one more thing, how much you miss the an... moreI don't know about annoying ads, but users say that, Xiaomi especially, does not fix or is slow to fixing bugs/issuses of the operating system of their phones, the issue of spying on users has been discussed for a long time, after some time the phones become not so good and there are a lot of problems. These are just user reviews that throw those who have especially tried Xiaomi out. But after all, the specifications indicated on paper and the low price always look more exotic than things in reality. It's strange to me, how does a person change the company's product that he praises so much after 8 years? I've been a Sony user for years, but finally decided I'd give Samsung a try because I was tired of paying the same price for significantly less features than Samsung giving in theirs phones. I avoided Samsung for years, but Samsung has changed. one UI has become attractive, easy to use, etc. And Sony is not even among the top 5 selling phone manufacturers for a reason. Xiaomi sells phones because they are cheap, but a cheap product will always be a cheap product. We pay 400 euros for the phone because it is worth the price. Aliexpress also sells phones in China, why don't you buy them there? Because you know that a cheap product remains a cheap product. So stop talking about Xiaomi. After all, you yourself know that you buy them because they are only that cheap, not because they are good. If i couldn't to buy Samsung probably i would buy Xiaomi, OnePlus and other too. But that's not mean that Xiaomi is good. The same... with other name that's all.

BIOX, 17 Jul 2024Being on Xiaomi for the past 8 years, I desperately miss th... moreIf Xiaomi was so cool why you after 8 years decided to buy Samsung A55?
1. You can turn off screen manualy.
2. In Samsung A55 is always on display where is all missed notifications: calls, SMS, others apps and etc., there is vibration when you taking phone which information you about missed call, SMS and etc. There is Edge Lighting.
3. Samsung A55 support only 10 Watt or 25 Watt charging, charging with 65 Watt Dell charger can damage your phone, battery and etc.
4. Again if Mi so cool why you bought Samsung?
5. For me camera working perfect. I don't know about collecting from Samsung side, but Xiaomi spy you or any others Chinese's companies was written a lot of time. So strange from you side to talk about collecting when possible that you was spied at all.
6. Example please? For some apps need some permissions it's normal. How you can do photo or video with location information without permission of camera, microphone or GPS and etc.? The same is with other apps.
7. Looks like you had Sony phone too, so why you Samsung user now if Xiaomi was so cool, Sony did so cool photo (by the way Sony users claims Sony for bad quality of photo in mid rangers, not so happy in flagships too)
8. Again why Mi was changed into A55? So cool to not cool, why?
9. One UI one of the best the environment at all. Most people saying that One UI to use is very simple and is very easy ot understand. Again about permission to use some features need some permission. How you unlock your car without keys? That's the same how you can play music without permission to get music files of yours files?
10. I playing Call of duty which require a lot of resurse from phone, but never had hot phone. I have this phone more than month. Playing game almost everyday for some hours. 11. Battery if one of the best in this section for phones that saying most experts.
You can always take it your Xiaomi, where is problem? If A55 so bad sell it. Simple.

If the device can be a drop smaller and lighter without losing anything, then why not? What's the point of the dead space, other than making it heavier and clunkier to carry around for no reason?
Answer: Samsung only caters to the rich, and if you're not rich, they'll stick you with needlessly massive and heavy phones.

Being on Xiaomi for the past 8 years, I desperately miss the following:
1. the proximity sensor doesn't work in most of my calls, ergo, I am ending the calls involuntarily
2. in no way, I can't find a convenient replacement for the LED signaling for missed calls/messages/events
3. the charging of my 7 yo Mi Max 2 is quicker with 18w charger, compared to A55 with the 65W Dell from my laptop.
4. the battery is good but the Mi Max 2 hold at least half a day longer.
5. The A55 camera doesn't work unless allowed to collect additional data and permission to scan and connect with nearby devices
6. there are countless and countless intrusive permissions for most of the functions to be allowed to work
7. the camera is mediocre. It is not important to me but my old work-phone Xperia had the same or even better quality of photos 5 years ago.
8. the cell coverage is not as good as my grandpa Mi Max2.
9. Difficult to find items and misleading settings menu. Many system apps appear with allowed permissions even after I deliberately denied it. It happens after one app asks for permission which triggers a whole chain of other system apps to receive access to it.
10. the phone is getting unpleasantly warm even during watching some videos or playing very casual games - Tetris, Plants vs Zms, Tower deff.
11. the battery is good but using the phone is draining it disproportionately faster even with
For me, it is almost entirely a bad experience and if I didn't use the phone for some days already, I would return it.

Thinner bezel allows for a bigger screen or a smaller phone with the same screen. Plus it looks more premium.
It ain't a deal breaker but the competitors like Xiaomi have a thinner bezel for less price.
