Samsung is teasing the A55 and A35's premium water and dust-resistant design, powerful processor, and low-light photography capabilities without getting into the specifics or revealing any specs. Samsung has also confirmed what many were dreading: neither of the two A series phones will be eligible for seven years of updates.
It also appears that the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A35 will not have any of the Galaxy S24's AI features, as nothing related to Galaxy AI is mentioned by Samsung. However, we can still expect the handsets to come with One UI 6.1 out of the box.
Naturally, the Galaxy A55 will be the more premium device of the pair thanks to features such as a metal frame and a new mid-range Exynos chip with an AMD-powered GPU. The A55 could also be Samsung's first mid-range phone to come in a variant with 12GB of RAM.
