Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy M55 technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy M55 suits people looking for a 5G phone with a large display and a versatile camera setup; its low weight and strong overall camera standing are its highlights. The 6.7-inch AMOLED display refreshes at 120 Hz, while the body weighs 180 g and measures 7.8 mm thick. Its weight and thickness are among the best of phones from its time.

The camera setup is better than that of most phones launched around the same time. The 50 MP camera has optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps; an 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro camera add different framing options. The front camera is 50 MP. There is no optical zoom, so the setup does not include a telephoto camera with optical magnification.

Overall performance is typical for its time, although its AnTuTu result of 698,000 is better than most. This version has 8GB of RAM and 256GB of expandable storage. Connectivity is also better than most, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, NFC, and dual SIM support. Android 14 comes with four years of operating system update support.

The 5,000 mAh battery and 45 W charging are typical specifications for its time. The Samsung Galaxy M55 earns a NeoScore of 6.8, making it a balanced choice for people who prioritize the display, cameras, and connectivity in a 5G phone.
