Samsung has seemingly confirmed the release date for its upcoming Galaxy A55 and A35, albeit with a few disappointing news.
According to Sam Mobile, the new Galaxy A series installments, set to roll out on March 11, will not receive the seven-year software and security support Samsung promised for its Galaxy phones.
Instead, the phones will only have four years of software updates and five years for security. As of writing, the seven-year commitment remains exclusive to Samsung's flagship Galaxy S24 series.
Galaxy A55, A35 Misses Out from Samsung AI Hype Train
Both Galaxy A55 and A35 is also expected to miss out on all the advanced AI functions in One UI 6.1 Samsung has touted earlier due to being restricted by its less powerful processors.
The One UI 6.1 debuted along with the Galaxy S24 last January, boasting powerful AI features for camera and performance to compensate for its somewhat limited functions outside of AI.
