I'll take Samsung A55 on overall performance

[@David-zx8fc]

+ eSIM

[@ameinrealone6852]

E-sim is important just in case if your phone is stolen😂

[@TechNomadUK1]

Objectively I'm interested who takes a more sharper, more natural-looking photos (both front & rear), better audio in video recording, better performance in general, better battery life and better speakers? Any thoughts? Thanks .

[@3lectronic0]

Cameras, UFS 3.1/LPDDR5X, Aluminum, GG Victus + Samsung. Everything else, i prefer NP2a. Really nice comparison, btw, congrats.

[@power279]

thanks for the review bro💪 just what i need today..to decide which one to buy

[@typicaltechlad]

You’re welcome bro, glad it was helpful. Which one did you decide on buying then?

[@Beeman2892]

Hi im confused NP2a already came with android 14, so 3 years android update means up until 2027 right? Or just until 2026? Cause Android 15 will be released most probably late this year then anxroid 16 2025 android 17 2026.Do they count the year itself or the Android releases?

[@abhinavkumarmishra1719]

It's 3 android updates- that means it'll go up to Android 17. They count android version release, not years.

[@Beeman2892]

@@abhinavkumarmishra1719 thanks!

[@sv6180]

When you see 3 years of android updates , consider it as 3 major android updates only .

[@marcinrucinski]

I am done with exynos

[@jm-char]

Nice!
Is it 8 or 12 gb version on tha Phone 2 A?

[@typicaltechlad]

Thanks, 2a is 12GB version 👍

[@jm-char]

@@typicaltechlad Seems like that's the version u need to get good performance?

[@typicaltechlad]

I mean the phones does support virtual RAM up to 20GB in total, if that makes any difference, but yes for best performance the 12GB would be the one to go for, although 8GB might suffice for a lot of people too

[@tiberseptim6648]

@@typicaltechlad what is virtual ram up to 20 gb?

[@Ifratrayhanakash]

NP2a 8gb ram is good for a balanced user or not? And how much it's extended ram with 8 gb?

[@mrsuffey]

انا استخدم هاتف NP2a 8gb و الهاتف ممتاز جدا بالنسبة لي

[@typicaltechlad]

You can extend RAM up to 8GB

[@fahadriaz4118]

3:20 who else noticed iphone 5s?

[@eldyhermawan3955]

In my country, 256GB A55 is priced right at $349. Since NP2a is not released here, the online resellers priced it around $449, $100 more expensive than A55 and it's 128GB version. Which one is the better choice?

[@Uxz-iu8re]

A55

[@GaetanoProchilo1989]

Great comparison, but benchmark application and games (exept for some) are still not optimized for the gpu.

[@typicaltechlad]

Hey, thank you and you’re right, optimisation of each game and app makes a big difference to its performance, I guess my review was an early look at them for each device

[@angelffalcon3134]

*the design on the a55 is just so nice*

[@ISOEditGD]

At first, I wondered why this lime A55 color is not available here in Philippines then I realized that A55 12GB Ram is actually not available for other regions not just the color itself. So we only have 8GB with 256GB storage for navy, ice blue and lilac.

[@Beeman2892]

Maybe its sold out? Like when i bought the NP2a i literally called all Digital Wlkershops just to have the 12 gig 256 combo and only one store had it which was in Makati branch. The white one also sold out like pancake. I was able to buy the black 12 256 and white 8 128 for my gf.

[@CptDuck]

It probably Online order only.

[@LloydZyanRUy]

Nope, we only have the 8/256 variant and the 8/128 as an online Carrier exclusive

[@ISOEditGD]

@@Beeman2892 white NP2a is actually one of my option, that looks clean but has limited stock so I bought A55 instead because of the build material and IP67 rating.

So do you think the haptics are better in 2a

[@typicaltechlad]

For me yes I preferred the haptics from the 2a

[@jiffonbuffo]

If you're in the US, it's not coming there so that explains lack of promotion. Otherwise, I don't know. They barely promote their non flagship ones.

Galaxy a55 is just way more premium than the 2a and can be got for £308 on eBay new. Funny how gaming can be better than the 2a despite the scores liie in warzone mobile

[@VitorSantos-cd6rm]

Samsung's 213g for me it's just a deal breaker, yes, the weight not the price ! I need a phone, not a brick ! Thanks, I'll pass. This time they were far beyond reasonable...

[@wzzpB]

thank you bro, now im really sold for nothing

[@typicaltechlad]

You’re welcome bro, glad it helped in your decision making 👍 the phone 2a is definitely good value

[@jethEngine]

Of course Samsung is above.

[@robbien8193]

I don't care, those bezels in the Samsung A55 are horrible.

[@typicaltechlad]

Yes I agree, surely they could have at least had them symmetrical at that price point?!

[@modelbaumok9210]

Samsung could have done so, but it didn't. You want small frames, pay 2x more, and they won't be the smallest anyway.

[@typicaltechlad]

Yeah seems like Samsung is using the bezels as a differentiator from their budget/mid-range phones and premium/flagship devices. The bezels on the Phone 2a are really nice and considering it’s quite cheaper proves a lot when it comes to Samsungs strategies

[@polightshakka304]

How hard it is to remove them ugly **ss bezel ? SAMSUNG Come on!!!!

[@geraldpentason5989]

[@zzzanakin2378]

Never trust Samsung Exynos.

[@ayouboughar4673]

Are Samsung's haptics better?

[@typicaltechlad]

I would say haptics were good on both phones, strong and tight, but if I had to pick one then I would say Phone 2a felt better to me in hand
