If you are planning to buy the Galaxy A55, you can read our in-depth review of the phone, which should help you decide if you should go for the device or not. However, if you are someone who wants to make that decision only after seeing how easily or economically the phone can get repaired if anything goes wrong or someone curious to a take look under the Galaxy A55’s hood, today’s the day for you. PBKReviews has released a teardown video of the Galaxy A55. While it reveals many interesting things about the device, three things caught our eye.
First, the lenses for the rear cameras are replaceable, which means that if those get cracked, you don’t have to get the whole back panel replaced. Second, the battery has a pull tab, making it easier to remove the pack from the device while replacing it with a new one. Third, and this is the most interesting one, the heat sink in the Galaxy A55 is much larger than the one on the Galaxy A54. Samsung said that the new phone has a 70% larger cooling system than its predecessor, and that seems to be true. No wonder the phone doesn’t overheat under full load.
You can watch the video below to learn more details about the phone’s internals. What we could gather from the video is that the Galaxy A55 is very well-built and one of the easiest to repair. With that, the channel has given it a score of 8.5 out of 10 for repairability.
