Samsung Galaxy A35
The A55's cheaper twin keeps the 120Hz Super AMOLED, IP67 rating and four-generation update pledge, but swaps the metal frame for plastic and the Exynos 1480 for the slower 1380. Still one of the safest $399 buys around.
Pros
- Same 6.6-inch 120Hz Super AMOLED as the A55
- IP67 water resistance at $399
- Four OS upgrades and five years of security updates
- 50MP main camera with optical stabilisation
Cons
- Plastic frame and 209g heft
- Exynos 1380 is merely adequate for gaming
- 25W charging, no wireless charging
- 8MP ultra-wide is soft in low light
Below average
