Happy with my new phone

Colour: Navy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

Happy with my Samsung A55. Wished I could have got it in Icy Blue colour when the sale was on, but it was out of stock.
Fast shipping. 👍🏻
Only comment is that it would have been nice to know that a charging cable came with the phone - I purchased a wall charger and cable at PB Tech's website suggestion, but when it arrived realised there was a cable in the box with the phone. Would be good to update the product description so other people know that there is a cable.

Camera seems great and phone is quick and intuitive.
Very similar to the flagship model in terms of appearance and more than adequate for my needs, so was happy to not have to p...view more

Great mid range device that actually feels high end

Colour: Navy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

This is def a good phone for majority of the population that need a device that:
- has battery that lasts
- takes good photos
-has a decent amount of storage
-performs like high end device for daily tasks like playing music, scrolling social media sites and playing videos (120hz)
-metal case and new shape makes it feel more high end
- easy to transfer old phone data and duplicate set up regardless if android, apple or another Samsung

Not great if you are looking:
- to game and use for high end applications
- variety of colour choices
- AI module and great bio-metrics
- to have less bloatware (forces you to get certain apps you didnt have bef...view more

Worthwhile

Colour: Icy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

Was lucky to be able to purchase during a Samsung sale and got it for very cheap. I would not purchase this phone at its full price as you are not going to be able to get the value for your money.

Pros:
- 120hz display which is even better than most iPhone models lol
- Great for any average consumer that will not try to push the phone to its limits
- Build quality is a huge improvement from the previous versions.
- SIM card and micro sd slot in one.
- Updates for years!

Cons:
- Fingerprint sensor is not ultrasonic but optical. Most screen protectors will make the sensor not work anymore.
- Limited colour options in New Zealand (Ice Blue a...view more

Warning USB-C to 3.5mm adapter requires DAC

Colour: Icy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

While the page says to Please check compatibility of related products before purchasing. There was no indication that any USB-C to 3.5mm adapters would not work with this phone unless they have DAC. As the phone does not have a Digital to Analogue Converter built in.

When purchasing adapters for this device you will need to pay extra for ones with DAC or they will not work at all. I was caught wasting money buying multiple because I thought I bought a dud one. Turns out it may be fully functional but incompatible with this phone.

A great option for a mid tier phone

Colour: Navy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

As someone who likes using a phone until it barely turns on, I was looking for a new ohone with software updates and support for a long while. I had been debating between the s23fe (releases October 2023) and the a55. There were some additional features included in the s23fe, but overall it seemed like the a55 would best suit my need, with 4 years of software updates and security packages.

The phone itself is fast, with substantial battery life that lasts nearly 2 days with moderate use. Camera quality is great for everyday use, however struggles a little in low light. I am grateful they have kept expandable storage, and am really enjoying n...view more

A mixed bag

Colour: Navy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

Replaced an aging A51 with this. My experience after a month is:

Typical excellent PBTech service
Great battery life (this is a real bonus compared to the A51)
Pretty good screen
Lots of storage
Mediocre processing speed (but this is a mid range phone)
Sound is pretty good

What disappoints is the poor wifi - I no longer have reliable connectivity further away from the router (even after all the trouble shooting tips)
But did I mention that it has great battery life?

(and yes, I did buy a screen protector, case and adaptor)

Budget s24

Colour: Navy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

Great budget option compared to the standard s24. Goes great. Pretty much the same screen and has expandable storage. Only downside is the Camara which still great especially for the price. Highly recommend if you want a cheaper phone with great performance and premium feel

Well below the price offered by rivals

Colour: Icy Blue | Storage Size: 256GB

I needed a new phone with a decent amount of memory and with a feature of an additional data card. After doing my research, I chose this model with its metal case. While it is slightly heavier than a plastic model, it is quick and responsive. It was really easy to transfer my data from my old phone - especially since I am older and not familiar with these things. It is powerful enough to run my rova app (where my previous phone would overheat). The night camera is awesome. I am still getting through the tips section.
