What we don't like about Samsung Galaxy A35 5G (6GB + 128GB)

  • Performance stutters and occasional lag when navigating the OS or during processor-intensive tasks and heavy gaming.
  • Slow charging speed compared to some competitors, and no wireless charging support.
  • Plastic frame, which some users feel makes the device feel less premium despite the glass panels.
  • Large and somewhat dated-looking bezels around the display, particularly a noticeable 'chin'.
  • The 5MP macro and 8MP ultrawide cameras are less impressive than the main lens and lack detail, especially in low light.
  • Does not include a charger in the box.
  • Lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
  • Some complaints about the phone getting warm during charging or heavy use.
  • Absence of advanced Galaxy AI features available on flagship models.
  • Presence of some non-removable bloatware apps.

Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy A35 5G offers a solid mid-range experience, primarily driven by its large 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and a capable Exynos 1380 processor. It comes equipped with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, providing ample performance for daily tasks and multitasking. Key pros include a reliable 50MP main camera system for vibrant photos and a durable design with an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance. On the downside, the plastic build might feel less premium compared to glass-backed competitors, and it lacks support for Wi-Fi 6E.
