What reviewers say

Good

  • Glass on both sides plus IP67
  • Good 120Hz AMOLED
  • Decent stereo speakers
  • Solid battery life
  • Cool-running performance
  • Good photos and video
  • 5G, NFC and microSD

Not so good

  • No charger in the box
  • No HDR video
  • Virtual proximity sensor is unreliable on calls
  • 240 Hz PWM flicker
  • Heavier than the A34
  • Pre-installed bloatware
  • Oversaturated photos, weak zoom past 2x
  • GSMArenaRecommendedMar 2024

    A polished, balanced refresh of the A3x formula; strong overall but cheaper rivals give more hardware for the money.

  • Notebookcheck86/100May 2024

    A capable budget all-rounder that borrows Galaxy S looks and glass build, with long update support.

  • 91mobiles80/100Mar 2024

    Elegant and dependable with a sharp screen, loud speakers and all-day battery; gamers and low-light shooters should look elsewhere.

  • Gadgets360 (NDTV)80/100May 2024

    Joint A55/A35 review: good battery and IP67, but raw speed trails rivals (score and summary as listed by Notebookcheck; page blocked for us).

  • Digit64/100Apr 2024

    Reliable and polished everyday phone, but poor for gaming and ships without a charger (summary as listed by Notebookcheck).

  • Indian Express70/100Mar 2024

    A good way into Samsung's ecosystem, though the segment has many strong alternatives (summary as listed by Notebookcheck).

  • Android Authority80/100Jun 2024

    Named Samsung's best budget phone of 2024 for its tough glass build and long updates (summary as listed by Notebookcheck).

  • The Mobile Indian77/100Mar 2024

    Suits Samsung fans, but trails rivals on power and charging speed (summary as listed by Notebookcheck).
