Samsung Galaxy A35 5G Review | A Surprising Budget Smartphone
Reviewing Samsung's Galaxy A35 5G, a budget-friendly mid-range alternative to those S23 flagship phones. I've been testing the Samsung Galaxy A35 5G for a week now, including the camera, gaming performance, battery life and more, by using it as my full-time smartphone. Here's my verdict, and this blower will cost you just over £300 in the UK from Samsung's website:

The Samsung Galaxy A35 5G's 50MP camera is surprisingly decent for this price point, only faltering when the lighting is very dim - otherwise you'll get crisp, attractive looking photos. Gaming on Genshin Impact also worked well, despite the limited performance. Battery life is good too, with the Samsung A35 lasting all day quite happily even with plenty of use.
Samsung has slapped a crisp and punchy Super AMOLED screen and stereo speaker setup on the Galaxy A35 5G, so movie fans should be happy enough. And that design is bright and colourful too, with a small selection of different colours on offer.
So that's my review of the Samsung Galaxy A35 5G. Bit of a cracker at this price, with only the occasional stumble in performance to complain about.

I just bought this yesterday! I was torn between this and the A55 5g however, that $100 price difference is a deal breaker
I bought the a55 5g from my carrier with a 50% discount so it was cheap as hell...
What did you upgrade from, out of curiosity? *And how long have you had it before finally upgrading to A35?
@alvintollah my oneplus 7pro finally gave up so I was looking for a reliable android mid range device.
@Rajinbo unfortunate we don't have that option in our country. Though, the A55 comes with a galaxy buds fe and the A35 with galaxy buds 2 and 25w charger
@@Rajinbosadly there is such thing where i live
This is the phone I've been waiting for... Thanks for reviewing it.
Watching from my A35 as well, life's good
Hi does your A35 get hot?
@@mtltd4956 yea it does heat up, but where I live the climactic conditions are cold so I have no problems with it
Haha love the review, man! Instant sub! I've had this phone for a few weeks now, and it's great! I don't do games and I really just use phones for basic and nothing fancy kind of things, so this phone is spot on!
I'm going for the phone 📱 you told me everything I needed. Best phone reviewer ever 🎉🎉
Thanks for the review, it's really nice that the 30 series are decent nowadays back in the day it was recommended that we stay away from them. Good stuff👍👍👍👍
Uncle Spurt can't wait to see your next budget/midrange list, because seeing this A35 head to head with Nothing 2a, Moto Edge 50 Fusion etc.
High on my list to buy! Glad you did the review. Now a question for you Chris. If you did not do all these reviews and was a normal blight like the rest of use... which phone would you slip your SIM into for a few years? 🤔
WATCHING FROM THE A55...love it...
Bought it for my mom, replacing her Galaxy A5 (2017). Would have preferred a pixel 7a for cheaper but she’s happy with it.
That's really coincidental. Together with my dad (83) we ordered this phone today. And yes, my dad had also has a Galaxy a5 2017 still today. I own the Pixel 7 and I would also recommend the 7a. Also ordered the Samsung Smart View Book Case. Installing with dad next Thursday. Hope he like's it.
How much did you pay for it?? In my country it costs 270 dollars new
@@RodolphosTechchannel 370€ but for the 256GB version.
@@3018744s that’s expensive lol that’s more expensive than the a55 256gb in my country
Same. But my mom had iphone 8plus lol
Gotta say that avatar series i spotted was really good. I dont like anime but the stories are great so pleased to see a good live action adaption. Watched it all in a few days with my son! Alot of phone for the money here too. The Budget market keeps getting better
Watching from Kenya big fan of yours
We many.
Your country woman here
Thanks for the work you've been doing. Kindly, would you do a Samsung M34 5g review. Thanks
I am blown away from your amazing taste in wallpaper, I wonder where you get them from???
It's the phone that 95% of smartphone users need. But they buy Iphones :))
the iphone is need improve the quality of social life and relationships. they are not buying iphones because of OS features.
@@Rayu25Demon bro honestly if your social life and relationships are at a point a god damn phone can make them better, its a lost cause
@@demykun5750 this what an iphone user told me, when i remember what she said i start laughing. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Rayu25Demon for real bruh, girl groups would have 0 tech knowledge and take iphone 12s over fking s23s and s24s holy shit its sad
How much price in Europe?
I've still got the a34 for about 6 months now, amazing device, it's definitely value for the money
love your channel, I'm doing the cheers with you every time 🤣
Where do u get your wallpapers from bro? Cos they are absolutely amazing
Informative and entertaining.
Got this A35 as a bday present... can't complaint 😂😂
Lucky fella
They recently released Galaxy C55 in China It has an eco leather back It's beautiful I want the same thing on other Samsung phones
Climate change is a myth. Change my mind
Thank you Uncle Tech spurt For reviewing The Samsung A35 Pretty Solid Phone❤
Love you too Uncle Spurt
I like your reviews, informative and entertaining. Just one wee request that you refrain from waving your hands so much in front of the phone. Thanks.
Well I got it already a few weeks ago and got it as a Replacement for My A33 and I can feel the Difference. The only thing that is better on the A33 is the screen, other than that it is a definitive Upgrade especially in the Camera Department.
Have one , works fine for me.
sd card coming from the s10+ def makes this appealing bc I have buds 2 pro and watch 4 classic
Coming from Samsung flagships to Moto (costs money etc), quite keen on having a gander at this as a halfway house and get back into the mother samsung garden... So to speak , Cheers love ya mackem b'stad
I recommended this to my mother to replace her old s7 because she doesn't want to spend so much money on a phone. No problems and everything works fine. It was easy to transfer old files/pictures to the new phone with that Samsung app
Just got one last week. ❤️
I might buy this. I have an S10e, and while it is only about 5 or so years old, I seem to have battery issues and I think the charging port is getting loose. I think if I bought another S10e, it would be around the same price, but I'd rather have something newer and that will get that support since the S10e's support is done I believe. I think it was supported up to Android 12. Maybe I won't impulse buy tonight at 1 in the morning, but if someone manages to repsond to this comment with any smartphone advice, I'll consider it. I don't need the top teir, I have enjoyed my flagship and these mid range phones seem to be getting better.
Where can I get those walpapers?
Great video Bixby you got me good Bixby was like what 😂
Just bought this phone for my young brother in law. Had time to play with it VSes my s22 ultra and my wifes s24 ultra. The s22 U and s24U are about the same on day to day use. The a35 vses both of them feels a little cheaper and much lighter. The screen doesnt get as bright but no one uses a phone at max brightness. The speakers arent as full and detailed on the a35 and the vibration motors feel weaker and cheaper ie during texts, pressing home buttons etc. All that said, if I lost my phone and needed one to get me by for a year, would I get the a35? Heck yeah!
I recently purchased one while traveling in Spain. My original cell phone messed up, it almost burned on the outlet. I don't regret buying it. I like it. Especially the sound quality is awesome.
May I please ask where do you get your cool anime wallpapers?
Budget phones these days are quite good in several areas. Many people think that is good enough. But for me it takes some getting used to because I switched from the S24 ultra to the A55 financially. I am lucky that I am not attending a festival or filming a concert this year, so I would rather have an S24 ultra because of the much better zoom and stability and the like. The cameras on midrange phones are normal but not wow, there is still room for improvement. I am otherwise satisfied with the A55, the fingerscan may be the same as the S23/S24. Battery life is good, no problems with overheating. Call with speaker works well. But it is still a budget phone, so don't expect the best cameras, that is always the biggest drawback. I like the screen on the A55 and the brightness in the sun. If you turn on the automatic brightness, the screen is clearly visible in the sun, but your battery life decreases a lot faster.
I think this is the most appealing out of the entire Samsung line this year when it comes to value. Even if the ultra was a little cheaper I would never use it to its full potential so it would still be a waste.
What about the camara zoom? Can you take clear pictures of something that's idk... 15 meters away?
Good Phone , Thank you to Review
Very nice video ❤❤❤❤
Watching this on my Samsung A34. I love Samsung
can you review the Galaxy A25
The only thing i don't like about it is plastic frame. Good phone in general. Nice video Chris❤
Why don't you review the M series phones uncle Spurt?
Do you know when the distortion will be fixed in the camera a53
Does it face any trouble while watching 4k videos on KZhead...??????
Please review the Samsund A25 5G
This is a good phone for the price. It looks like it is a premium phone also.
How would you compare this with the Nord 4CE
Nice A35
There is a way to make your Samsung louder without using a sound booster. You need to go into the sound settings and it does work. 🇬🇧
Is it the Adapt Sound feature?
@@dumfriesspearhead7398 it's called media volume limit. It boosts the sound by a 40 percent.
Anyone know which bits of bloatware can be deleted ? e.g. Linkedin, Microsoft stuff. ?
Nah, cus i tried to use bixby, and she didn't respond, but immediately, when i started insulting her, she piped up 💀
God knows when the companies will start delivering affordable compact phones. All we get are high end pocket draining compacts.
Would you do a Redmi Turbo 3 review please
Nice video
My 25w charger heating too much but not the phone. It will cause any problems??
How do u get those wallpapers
What is your choice? This or the oppo reno 11 f?
I don't like the hump they're trying to introduce at the power button and the volume locker....
Should I go for the a35 or a55? currently have the nokia 7.2 and am looking for an upgrade. I do some causal gaming on my phone (mainly genshin) and take lots of pics and videos of my cats. I want a phone that I'm gonna have at least for 4-5 years.
Me too. I still wonder should i get A35 or A55. But I think you should go for the A55 if you have the budget
How To fix black border in animes ?
I think Poco x6 pro is better choice. The only thing to buy Samsung it's OneUI and maybe better design.
@PS-mw9ue That's true, i hope you never get stutterers or lags
Yeah, the UI is a big factor for me and I love the OneUi.
watching from my Samsung galaxy A35 5G
You're very good self and the German tech girl are the best reviewers on KZhead
Your wee looks like that in the mornin my friend.when your out drinkin it s clearer than europe s controling system because after 2 pints its clear 😅
I love A35❤❤❤
This or NothingPhone 2a?
I wanted to wait for A35 but my dying phone forces me to get the A34 instead. And you know what? It did more than serve its purpose for me. I don't game on my phone.. I rather trickle charge my phone overnight than fast charging, I set it charge till 85% and using my phone daily with around 6 to 8 hours screen on time always leave me around 23% at midnight so no fast charging isn't an issue for me.
this looks more interesting than the 8a to me because you get a bigger screen and bigger battery for a lower price.
I'm honestly starting to wonder if there is any point in me spending £1000.00 on a top of the range device when these mid-rangers are getting so good.
where do you get these wallpapers?
Yes please give the source
He probably got them from wall.alphacoders. The characters are Giovanna [Video] und Bridget[Thumbnail] from guilty gear
Nice
Wallpaper name
I've been wondering about where did he get those great anime wallpapers for a while, anybody knows? 😅
Sir please send the download link for wallpaper on this phone
I think it is from a site codersalpha or some other site
review the Oneplus Nord CE 4 and Oneplus Nord 4
I am done with flagships due to prices omg 😲 been with a series since a70 sad that stoped the A7 series but had a71 a54 and now a55
IM STILL ALIVEEE!!! passively
Got the old A34 instead. This phone is a beast in terms of this price point.
Bro the a34 is so much better than a35. Super amoled, 120hz, decent camera, good battery life. For as low as 220 dollars now. Absolute bargain
@@sergeboss True that.
But in our country a35 is 230 dollars😂😂
@@mhn_m Which country?
We got two over a 3 month period £225 & £200 very decent & long support for an undemanding user.
I think go for A55
I dislike glass backs. Skip
Samsung Galaxy A35 is a decent phone overall
I have Infinix Zero 30 5G but I believe, Samsung Galaxy A34 is far much better😢
A35 or A54?
The frame is actually metal!
The chipset is the one in last year's A54
I've been using this A35 for more than a week and I'm noticing graininess or sandy kinda textures all over the phone. Specially every content looks grainy. Have you noticed this?
Happens on both the A54 and the A55 too. Type of Super Amoled Samsung are using.
@@rhdbenchmarks oh thanks for the valuable information. For my case, the grain is so far permanent. Will it acts like this all the time?
@@morpho_01 yup, sadly. Permanent.
I don't know whether to get the a55 5g or spend about £100 less and get the A35 5g
I bought A55. But i think the old S22 plus is better then the A35 and A55. But yeah, i bought the A55, next year S25 ultra because i wana have the best camera's. A55 i think has more ram, ram is important by android phone. Around 1 hour more batterylife then the A35. Processor also a bit faster.
A55 is way superior especially chipset wise. The 1380 is a toaster.
@@FlubFlubber I mean you're comparing a flagship from only two years ago to midrangers, of course the flagship is better.
£300=budget 😬I think I live on another planet
Samsung makes its own versions of Google's app. You can uninstall or disable most of the Samsung apps if you don't want them
A35 is very okay phone, but i would still go with 1+.
i would just buy the s21 ultra for £250 might be old but it better than the A 35
Since when did £300 become the budget price point 😱
300$ for a phone that has 4 years of updates is good
With 300$ budget This or redmi note 13 pro
This or vivo v30
i dont know anyone who owns these mid range samsungs..they look pretty as plastic slabs but slow to recharge..sluggish..toastie..why do samsung stick with this formula?
You sound like you're under the weather Uncle Spurt. Take care.
A55best in camera and selfi or a35?
The A55 should be better but there was a review in youtube which compared the two and results vary.
