Samsung Galaxy A35 6 GB / 128 GB / Global / SM-A356B technical sheet
The Samsung Galaxy A35 suits anyone looking for a balanced phone with a vivid display, broad connectivity and a stabilized main camera. Its clearest trade-off is weight: at 209 g, it is heavier than most phones of its time.
The 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display offers 120 Hz, Always-On Display and Gorilla Glass Victus+. Its 1000 nits and 390 ppi are typical figures for phones launched around the same time, while the size leaves room for video and reading. IP67 protection resists dust and water to a depth of 1 m. Android 14, Google Services, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and 5G cover everyday needs; its connectivity is better than most phones of its time.
The 50 MP main camera has optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps, making the camera better than most phones of its time. This version has expandable 128 GB storage, while the phone is also sold in 6 GB / 256 GB, 8 GB / 128 GB and 8 GB / 256 GB configurations. The 5000 mAh battery and 25 W charging are typical figures. With a NeoScore of 6.4, it is fairly priced for what it is, and its launch price was below most phones of its time.
