this is great news if you plan to keep it for a long time

Disassembled and tested by PBK Reviews, the Samsung Galaxy A55 demonstrates unexpected repairability. Great news for the new Korean mid-range mobile phone… as well as for repairers and its users.

The new Samsung Galaxy A55, tested in our columns, but, strictly speaking, not yet tested, is fraught with at least one pleasant surprise that we did not expect: it is very easy to repair. We discover this by watching a disassembly video of the device published by the YouTube channel PBK Reviews, whose operation is similar to iFixit.

Convinced of the potential of this new mid-range smartphone in this area, the platform has awarded it a score of 8.5 out of 10. A very respectable score, although the Galaxy S24 Ultra did slightly better, receiving a score of 9/10 on the same channel.

Hidden talents of Galaxy A55..

The first advantage of the Galaxy A55 anyway is that it has interchangeable lenses for the rear cameras. So if they get scratched or scratched, they can be replaced rather than having to replace the entire back of the phone.

Another pleasant surprise is the presence of adhesive tape, which makes it easy to separate the battery from the case. PBKReviews also points out that the mobile phone’s screen and USB-C port are easy to replace and that replacement parts are very easy to find.

At the same time, we also found that the Galaxy A55 has a much better diffusion system size than its predecessor Galaxy A54. Samsung relies on a 70% larger heatsink to help prevent the processor from overheating. Good news that provides consistent performance without any speed drops and also helps to maximize the lifespan of the device.

Overall, according to PBKReviews, the Galaxy A55 is one of the easiest smartphones on the market to repair. The video above allows us to see the electronic insides of a well-designed and well-built smartphone. Given the progress in repairability and expanded software support for its latest smartphones, Samsung is definitely on the right track.
