Phone 2 is UK model number  Phone 1 Is Europe model number

Phone brands normally have different model numbers for each region

Thailand model number is SM-A556ELVDTHL

Well....if you appreciated that response...let me give you another response.....OK?

 

I recently purchased the A55 5G.

 

On paper, the specs look super-good (for the money)....

 

And, the price is OK if you buy it in Thailand....and I forget what I paid, but you can check-out the most recent pricing from Samsung, in Thailand.

 

The phone that I bought is this configuration:

 

I do not like Android 14, or at least the Samsung garbage version on this phone.

 

However....

This phone has a lot of plusses, such as the microSD, the 12GB of RAM, and the 256GB of internal storage.

 

Would I buy it again?

 

YES, I definitely would.

 

========

 

However, the negatives include what I consider to be much poorer volume than my NOTE4.

 

Also, I still like my NOTE4 better, just from the perspective of the feel of it and the functioning of it.

The NOTE4 was an amazing phone for its time.

 

=========

 

I have no idea what you might choose to do....but.....

 

I like this phone that I purchased a few weeks ago.

 

Especially, I like the 12GB of RAM and the 256GB of internal memory.

 

The only question is.....where to buy it at the cheapest price......

 

Amazon, as far as I could see, weeks ago, was cheaper.

 

===============

 

I need a case for this phone...however....since....

 

This phone is very slippery.

No doubt, I will drop it soon, unless I get my ordered case...PDQ......!!

 

 

==========

 

I do not like the inferior responsiveness of the touch screen on this phone, compared to my old NOTE4....

Or, perhaps, this is just my perception, and not really based on reality.....

 

As you know....

I, too, am not reality-based.

 

 

Good Phone for the money.
I would DEF buy it again!

The A55 5G Samsung phone is too big and unwieldy ....

 

Also, I do not like Android 14.

 

But, I hope I can get used to it.

 

My NOTE4 was so much better than this A55.

 

However, IMHO....for the money, I think you will NOT be sorry by buying the A55 configuration with 256GB of storage, 12 GB of RAM, as I have already stated.

 

 

If you have more money, and money to burn....

 

Then, I would rather go with a much more expensive phone, either from Samsung or Google.

 

==================

 

The responsiveness of the touch screen is for <deleted>e, however.

I hate it.

 

Also, the audio characteristics of the A55 are like <deleted>e, compared to the NOTE4.

 

==============

 

What more would you like to know....by the way?

 

All that I can tell you is that I would buy this phone, again....

 

And, I am not sorry that I bought it.

 

 

JUST SAYING....it's not up to NOTE4 standards, in any way...

 

Sorry that I can't be more helpful.

 

At this time....

Whilst it's nice to hear your thoughts on the phone I wasn't asking for any such information.

eg. 5G 

 

Different regions have different 5G signal frequencies. 

 

Some 5G phones won't work on the 5G networks in some countries.
