Samsung Galaxy A35 5G specifications
The Samsung Galaxy A35 5G shares its design language pretty much similar to the Galaxy A55 5G. The device comes with a 6.6-inch screen with a Super AMOLED display. It gets the same 120 Hz adaptive screen refresh rate and 1,000 nits of peak brightness. The back has three cameras that protrude slightly off the surface. As for the differences, the Galaxy A35 5G has a plastic frame to the aluminum of the Galaxy A55 5G. Both devices have Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ for front screen protection as well as an IP67 rating to ensure dust and splash resistance.
The Galaxy A35 5G weighs 209 grams making it slightly lighter than its A55 GB sibling. A major difference is that it doesn’t have eSIM support. Likewise, it’s an FHD+ screen with 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution and 390 PPI. In Nepal, the device competes well with the likes of the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus 5G. More on that later.
Performance and camera
For performance, Samsung has used the home-cooked Exynos 1380 chipset built using a 5nm process. It’s an octa-core processor with 4 performance cores clocking at 2.4 GHz and the other 4 at 2.0 GHz. The chipset is mated to a Mali-G68 MP5 GPU. The improved GPU and NPU make the device more efficient for gaming, multi-tasking, and running graphics-heavy applications.
Likewise, the lineup comes with 8 GB RAM and 128 internal storage. There’s also an option for the 8 GB RAM and 256 GB memory which can be further extended with a “shared” microSDXC slot. The device runs on One UI 6.1 out of the box which is based on Android 14. Like its Galaxy A55 5G senior sibling, it also gets 4 years of major Android OS upgrades and 5 years of security updates.
For photography, the Galaxy A35 5G houses a triple-camera setup with 50 MP wide, 8 MP ultrawide, and 5 MP macro cameras. Given its price range, the main camera supports optical image stabilization (OIS) which drastically elevates photos taken by smartphones. The front gets a 13 MP selfie shooter which is placed right in the middle on the top of the device. Both back and front cameras are capable of 4K video record.
