OPPO F27 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy F55: design

The OPPO F27 Pro+ boasts an elegant design with a round camera dial reminiscent of the Find N series smartphones. Its rear panel features a vegan leather back, a Cosmos Ring around the camera sensors, and a middle leather layer in a slightly lighter shade than the rest of the panel. The smartphone is quite sleek at 7.99mm and weighs about 177g.

The curved OLED panel boasts a screen-to-body ratio of 93 percent, with thin bezels surrounding it. It features a punch-hole cutout for the front camera, and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protects the display. As India’s first IP69-rated smartphone, it claims to be dustproof and resistant to continuous water immersion, water sprays, and high temperatures. In addition to that, it holds the Swiss SGS 5-star certification for enhanced durability. The smartphone is available in Dusk Pink and Midnight Navy.

The Samsung Galaxy F55 comes in two colour options: Black and Apricot, with both variants in a textured vegan leather back in a stitch pattern. The smartphone continues to follow the brand’s classic design, with a triple rear camera setup in a vertical line, along with the flash unit. The smartphone is slightly heavier at 180g. There’s a similar punchhole cutout for the front camera, but unlike the F27 Pro+, the Galaxy F55 features a flat display panel with slightly thick bezels surrounding it. 

OPPO F27 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy F55: display

The OPPO F27 Pro+ curved OLED display and Samsung Galaxy F55’s Super AMOLED+ display both have the same resolution on paper, but Samsung’s display is likely to offer a superior viewing experience due to its panel quality. When it comes to brightness levels, there’s not much difference between both devices at 950nits (F27 Pro+) and 1000nits (F55) of peak brightness, respectively. 

For gaming purposes, the Galaxy F55 is a more suitable device due to its flat display. The OPPO F27 Pro+ could deliver richer colours and better accuracy due to its 100 percent sRGB and DCI-P3 colour gamut support. 

OPPO F27 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy F55: cameras

When it comes to cameras, there’s quite a bit of difference between the two devices. The OPPO F27 Pro+ for instance, lacks an ultra-wide lens yet offers a higher resolution 64MP primary camera. Samsung offers a substantially better 50MP front camera compared to the 8MP front camera of the OPPO F27 Pro+.

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy F55 is likely a better choice since it offers greater versatility thanks to an ultra-wide lens and a more capable front camera.

OPPO F27 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy F55: performance & software

The Samsung Galaxy F55 carries a slightly more capable processor at its core compared to the OPPO F27 Pro+ and is thus likely to offer comparatively better performance output. The Galaxy F55 also comes in a higher 12GB RAM variant, which can improve the performance even further. 

Both smartphones feature an Android-14-based operating system. The Galaxy F55 comes with OneUI 5.0, while the OPPO F27 Pro+ features ColorOS. Samsung’s OneUI offers a comparatively cleaner OS experience, but ultimately, it boils down to a user’s preferences. The Samsung Galaxy F55 will receive 4 years of OS upgrades and 5 years of security patches which is better in comparison to the 3 years of OS upgrades and 4 years of security updates on the OPPO F27 Pro+. 

OPPO F27 Pro+ vs Samsung Galaxy F55: battery & charging 

Both phones feature a standard 5,000mAh battery, so the expected battery life on both devices is likely to be quite close. Where the differences lie is in the charging speed offered. The OPPO F27 Pro+ comes with 67W fast charging support, which is a substantial step up compared to the 45W charging support on the Galaxy F55. Keeping that in mind, the OPPO F27 Pro+ should deliver faster charging speeds.
