The Samsung Galaxy A35 5G is a mid-range Android-based smartphone developed and manufactured by Samsung Electronics as a part of its Galaxy A series. It was announced on March 11, 2024 and was released four days later, alongside the Galaxy A55 5G.
Specifications
Design The front is made of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+, while the back uses glass with an unspecified protection. It also features IP67 dust and water resistance. The design of the Galaxy A35 5G is similar to the entire Galaxy Ax5 lineup, featuring a flat (plastic) frame and the Key Island. On the right side, there is the volume rocker and the power button.
Unlike its predecessors, the A35 has a hole punch display like A55 instead of a teardrop notch making it the first in the lineup to have this feature. Galaxy A35 5G
Hardware
Display The Galaxy A35 5G features a 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate (same as its predecessor), albeit it now has a punch-hole (Infinity-O) cutout (compared to the teardrop (Infinity-U) notch), a first for the Galaxy A3x lineup.
Processor and Memory The smartphone is equipped with the in-house Samsung Exynos 1380 SoC, which was first used on the Galaxy A54 5G. It is paired with 6 GB or 8GB of RAM and 128 GB or 256 GB (both with UFS 2.2) of internal storage. It is the last Galaxy A3x model that supports expandable storage via microSD cards.
Battery The smartphone features a non-removable Li-Ion 5000 mAh battery with a 25 W fast charging support, similar with its predecessor.
Camera It has a triple rear camera setup (with the ultrawide and macro cameras carried over from its predecessor): 50 MP main (a slight upgrade from the 48 MP found on its predecessor), 8 MP ultrawide (f/2.2), and 5 MP macro (f/2.4). The smartphone also features a front-facing 13 MP wide-angle camera. Both main and front cameras can record video in 4K resolution at 30 fps.

Ports and connectivity On the bottom of the smartphone, there is a USB-C 2.0 port, two microphones and stereo speakers. On the top, there is an additional microphone and, depending on the model, either a hybrid dual SIM tray (SIM 1 + SIM 2 or SIM 1 + microSD) or a single SIM tray.
Software Alongside the Galaxy A15, Galaxy A25, and the Galaxy A55 5G, the device is slated to receive 4 OS upgrades and 5 years of security updates (until 2029). It also marks the last time these devices will receive this level of support, as its successors all had 6 years of support.
Starting with the Galaxy A35, the Galaxy A3x series no longer supports 32-bit ARMv7 applications due to restrictions in the SoC. Devices that were released prior to the Galaxy A35 continue to support 32-bit apps.
