Samsung Galaxy A55 5G price in Malaysia starts from RM1200, putting the Exynos 1480 chipset, 12GB RAM and 256GB storage on the table at that price point. The 6.6-inch Super AMOLED panel runs at 120Hz with HDR10+ support and hits 1000 nits peak brightness, so scrolling feels smooth and outdoor visibility holds up well. Android 14 with One UI 6.1 runs the show.

The camera setup leans on a 50MP main sensor with OIS, backed by a 12MP ultrawide and a 5MP macro shooter. Video tops out at 4K30fps from both rear and front cameras, with the 32MP selfie camera handling the front-facing duties.

Battery capacity sits at 5000mAh with 25W wired charging, enough for a full day under normal use. Build quality gets a boost from Gorilla Glass Victus+ on the front and an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance, which isn't always a given in this price bracket. It's available in Awesome IceBlue, Awesome Lilac and Awesome Navy.
