The Galaxy A55 design isn’t too surprising – Samsung phones look pretty uniform. However, the A15 and A25 introduce the so-called key island design, which is a raised area that houses the phone’s side keys (volume and power). The A55 also has that feature, as we’ve seen in renders but now also in live photos posted by TENAA.
The Samsung Galaxy A55 has a model number SM-A5560 and a related model SM-C5560 – this would be the Galaxy C55 (probably also known as the Y55).
The A55 runs Geekbench with the upcoming Exynos 1480, which may or may not have AMD graphics. Based on the rumours, the phone will have an 8/256GB option and a microSD slot.
As for the Galaxy C55, we have some more details on it (courtesy of TENAA). It will have a 6.67” OLED display (FHD+), a 13MP selfie camera, a 50+8+2MP triple rear camera and a 5,000mAh battery. It’s not yet clear how the C55 will deviate from the A55, but the Galaxy A54 has a smaller 6.4” display and a 12MP ultra wide camera, not 8MP.
The C55 could instead prove to be closer to the Galaxy A35, which also appeared in Live Photos earlier today. Samsung is yet to set an official unveiling date for the Galaxy A55, A35, C55 and the rest of its mid-range offerings (there should be M-series phones too).
