    Samsung has finally launched the Galaxy M55, and it is now available for pre-order in Brazil. It is a modified version of the Galaxy A55, and it trades some features for others to offer a better-specced phone in some regards. So what's different compared to the Galaxy A55?

    Let us check it out.

    Galaxy M55 has a Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chip

    Samsung Galaxy M55 Screen

    The Galaxy M55 has a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED+ screen with Full HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It has a peak brightness of up to 1,000 nits in High Brightness Mode (HBM), but HDR brightness could be even higher. It also features stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, so it is a great package for watching videos. The phone has an in-display fingerprint reader.

    It is powered by the relatively powerful Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor, which performs better than the Snapdragon 778G+ but slightly lower than the MediaTek Dimensity 7200. The phone has 8GB RAM, 256GB internal storage, and a microSD card slot. It runs Android 14 (One UI 6.0) out of the box and will get four years of Android OS updates and five years of security updates. It also features Samsung Knox Vault with EAL5+ certification.

    Samsung Galaxy M55 Cameras

    The Galaxy M55 has a 50MP selfie camera, the highest resolution selfie camera ever on a Samsung phone. On the rear, it has a 50MP primary camera with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 2MP macro camera. It can record 4K 30fps videos with VDIS (Electronic Image Stabilization for videos) using its front and primary rear cameras. It also has the Dual Video Recording feature, allowing you to record videos from front and rear cameras simultaneously.

    Samsung Galaxy M55 Fast Charging

    A 5,000mAh battery powers the Galaxy M55, similar to the Galaxy A55. However, the Galaxy M55 one-ups the Galaxy A55 with 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, topping up to 70% in just 30 minutes. It also features GNSS, a hybrid dual-SIM card slot, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetoo9th 5.2, NFC, and a USB Type-C port. It weighs 180g and is 7.8mm thin.

    Galaxy M55 pricing and colors

    The Galaxy M55 is priced at BRL 2,699.10 ($542) in Brazil and is available for pre-order from Samsung's website. It has two color options: Dark Blue and Light Green. It could be launched in India and other nearby countries within the next few days.
