Shopping the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales can be challenging, especially if you want a new phone, but this deal makes life much easier – and it’s still available despite those sale events ending.
If you’re considering a Samsung Galaxy but don’t want to spend too much, we’d highly recommend the Galaxy A55. It’s one of the best mid-range handsets out there.
It comes in a few colours, but only one storage size – which makes it easy to price up and compare.
The phone usually costs £439 in the UK, but you can buy it for just £285. That’s a super attractive 35% discount, which translates to £154 in savings. This Currys deal also throws in a couple of extra free gifts.
You can get your hands on a free Galaxy Fit 3 fitness tracker, usually worth £69 when you buy it new. Plus, you also get 4 months of Apple TV+ for free, so you can watch hit shows like Severance, Shrinking, and The Morning Show.
With prices usually starting from £439, the Galaxy A55 5G represents the kind of price cut we don’t see much of these days on phones. Despite being cheap, it manages to add a large display and a fast processor, all housed in a premium design.

Samsung’s Galaxy A55 5G features the powerful Exynos 1480 chipset, which is built using the more efficient 4nm process. Backed by 8GB of RAM, it delivers a smooth experience overall, particularly in gaming and heavier workloads. We scored the handset four stars out of five in our full review.
