The Samsung Galaxy M55 Super AMOLED Plus display is expected to offer lower power consumption and sunlight reflection compared to a regular AMOLED panel seen on the Nord CE4.

Samsung Galaxy M55 vs OnePlus Nord CE4: performance
The OnePlus Nord CE4 gets a more powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset as opposed to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC powering the Galaxy M55. That said, the OnePlus phone comes with only 8GB RAM while the Samsung device offers up to 12GB RAM. In terms of raw benchmarks, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 recorded a score of 8 lakh on AnTuTu, while the SD 7 Gen 1 on the Galaxy M55 scored around 5.8 lakh.
One expects the Nord CE4 to offer better day-to-day performance and gaming experience, though the Galaxy M55 might deliver a better multitasking experience with the 12GB RAM option.
Samsung Galaxy M55 vs OnePlus Nord CE4: cameras
In the camera department, the Samsung Galaxy M55 5G shows some versatility thanks to an additional 2MP macro camera which is missing on the Nord CE4. The primary and secondary cameras are similar between the two devices with a 50MP and 8MP configuration.
In the selfie department, the Galaxy M55 5G is clearly ahead with a 50MP camera as opposed to a 16MP sensor on the Nord CE4. You should expect sharper selfies with the Samsung phone. We will have more to share about the Galaxy M55’s cameras in our full review.
Samsung Galaxy M55 vs OnePlus Nord CE4: battery, software
Coming to the battery, the Oneplus Nord CE4 is the clear winner as it gets a bigger 5,500mAh battery compared to the 5,000mAh unit inside the Samsung Galaxy M55 5G. Additionally, the Nord CE4 also charges faster at 100W, ensuring the phone juices up from zero to 100 percent in under 35 minutes. In comparison, the Galaxy M55 5G supports 45W charging which will take longer to fully charge the device.
While both phones offer a familiar and clean software experience, the Galaxy M55 benefits from a promise of longer software updates. The Samsung phone ships with Android 14-based One UI 6.0 and will get 4 years of major upgrades and 5 years of security updates. The Nord CE4, on the other hand, runs on Android 14-based OxygenOS 14 but will only get two years of Android OS updates.
Verdict
As you can see from the comparison, the OnePlus Nord CE4 gets a better chipset, a larger 5,500mAh battery and 100W fast charging. However, the Samsung Galaxy M55 takes the lead with longer software support, a sharper 50MP front camera, and a Super AMOLED display. Both devices are pretty evenly matched and the choice boils down to what is more important for the buyer.
