The Samsung Galaxy A55 is almost official, as its name and model number have been confirmed on Samsung Portugal's support page

The page, discovered by SamMobile (still available at the time of writing), also indicates that the Galaxy A55 will have 128GB and 256GB storage options, as was offered in certain markets with last year's Galaxy A54 Since US users were only offered the 128GB Galaxy A54, we expect the A55 to have a larger capacity option for users who store a lot of photos and apps

Seeing as how this page and the related Galaxy A35 recently appeared in the Google Play Console, it seems that the launch of these phones is imminent And it makes sense, given that the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A34 were launched in March 2023

We already have a good idea of how the Galaxy A55 will look and function, thanks to the leaks so far For example, its design will feature a new "key island" element that lifts the power and volume buttons upward and away from the main side rails Assuming the leaked information is accurate, one wonders what this will feel like when actually held and used

As for other rumored specs, the Galaxy A55 should be 65" with a 120Hz display, Exynos 1480 chipset, 5,000mAh battery, and IP67 dust and water resistance The Galaxy A35 should also be available in white, black, pink, and yellow, and the Galaxy A55 in ice blue, lilac, and navy

Taken together, the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55 are the best budget phones around, especially if Samsung stabilizes its prices However, since the Galaxy A55's main competitor, the Google Pixel 7a, was raised in price last year, we are a little worried that Samsung will raise the Galaxy A54's price from $450
