Samsung Galaxy M55 5G now official: Snapdragon 7 Gen1, 45W charging

A few weeks after the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55 release, Samsung has launched the new Galaxy M55 5G.

As compared to the Galaxy A55 with an Exynos chip, the Galaxy M55 boasts a Qualcomm chipset, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1. A slightly larger 6.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus display and faster 45W wired charging.

Its selfie camera gets a boost too, now at 50-megapixel (from 32MP). However, the triple camera system at the rear seems to be a downgrade. While it retains the 50MP main shooter with OIS, the ultrawide and macro sensors get lower resolutions at 8MP and 2MP, respectively.
