What owners report

  • “I own an A55 and I couldn't be more satisfied with my handset. [...] It's definitely on par with some of the more pricier and powerful smartphones when it comes to the actual build that's for sure. It boasts a beautiful build, feels premium. [...]”

  • “To those commenting about getting a better device for this price. [...] The balance is there and i have been using this device for a couple days now and i have to say its a great device for the average user. Software is packed with almost all the features as the flagship devices.”

  • “Got this about a month ago after 6 years with my A10, only because that one can't handle the apps I use anymore. These things do last long if treated with a lot of care. Also, I got it for half price while the FE and all of the S series is still far out of my reach, so with what I get for what I paid for, this is actually a good deal.”
