Review: Works with Tmobile. - 1st update: 8/26/2024 Received the circle to search update, nice to see higher end features make their way to cheaper models...phone has meet expectations so far. The 1st picture is the txt from Tmobile which shows partial network compatibility, I'm assuming it's missing one of Tmobile's 5g bands . Phone was purchased for international travel and as a backup when our main device breaks, which has happened twice once in Greece and once in Bermuda which it's a major headache when you are not home. I will always carry a spare phone from now on. The one broken in Greece was a drop that cause the screen to crack, I was able to put phone in maintenance mode before taking to shop, the one in Bermuda, the screen went black, was not able to put on maintenance mode which turns into a security problem whith phone banking and all the stored passwords in phone, setting secure folder for all those apps and also getting a separate app for passwords, not Google. Overall the phone was easy to set up and works as advertised. The charger is a after marker charger provided in the box, better than nothing, phone box was properly sealed from mfg. Will update after our Panama trip.
Review: quality-price a successful gift - I bought the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G (256GB Dual-SIM) as a gift, based on many reviews about its incredible value for money, and it was a total success. I give it 5 stars because it met all my expectations. Design and Experience: Upon unpacking and holding it, it feels very well made and modern, without looking like a mid-range phone. I chose it for my sister, who only goes to school and had always wanted a Samsung; this model was the perfect choice. Performance, according to my sister Battery: The strong point. My sister comments that the battery lasts a long time, which is ideal for a full day at school and outside. Fluidity and Gaming: It runs very smoothly both in daily browsing and gaming, which indicates good processor performance. Camera: The photo quality is excellent. She uses it a lot to take photos, and the camera has delivered, which is a key point for someone who is photogenic. Only caveat: The only point to consider is that the charging time isn't the fastest on the market, but given the great battery life, this isn't a deal-breaker. Conclusion: A mid-range phone that feels and performs like a high-end phone. Highly recommended if you're looking for a reliable phone with plenty of memory (256 GB) and a long-lasting battery.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better value vs Galaxy models
*by A***S on January 6, 2026*

Had a Galaxy S20 FE previously. Replaced it with the A55. Absolutely over the moon happy with the A55. Ease of conversion using Samsung SmartSwitch - 9/10. Having 1TB microSD and 256GB RAM just fantastic. Phone supports e-SIM and camera is top notch. A "no brainer" superior value and performance vs the Galaxy option. Will never go back to the Galaxy vs the A series. Happier than I thought I would be by far! 😀
