All details of Samsung Galaxy A56, A36, and A26 revealed before launch
Samsung is gearing up to release three new phones in its Galaxy A-series: the Galaxy A56, Galaxy A36, and Galaxy A26. Leaks have already shared some details like prices in India and how these phones look. Now, a fresh report from Germany’s WinFuture spills everything about their features, European prices, and when they’ll hit the market. Excitingly, they’ll pack cool new stuff like Gorilla Glass 7+ but still cost the same as the older models. Plus, they’re launching in just a week!
Galaxy A56: What to Expect
The Galaxy A56 comes with a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED screen that’s sharp and smooth, thanks to its 120Hz refresh rate. It uses Gorilla Glass Victus for protection, which is a step down from the A55’s Victus+. The front camera sits in a small hole and is a 12MP shooter—lower than the A55’s 32MP but likely better quality due to a smarter sensor. On the back, you get a 50MP main camera with stabilization, a 12MP wide-angle lens, a 5MP close-up camera, and a flash.
Powering it is an Exynos 1580 chip with 8GB of memory. Storage details are unclear, but past leaks hint at up to 256GB and 12GB RAM options. It’ll run Android 15 with Samsung’s One UI 7.0. The battery is 5,000mAh and charges at 45W. You’ll also find 5G, fast Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS, NFC, stereo sound, water resistance, and a fingerprint reader under the screen. It’s slim, light, but skips a memory card slot.
Galaxy A36: Key Features
The Galaxy A36 shares the same big, bright screen but has a U-shaped notch for its 12MP front camera. It’s special because it’s the first phone with Gorilla Glass 7+—super tough and brag-worthy! It runs on a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chip with 6GB or 8GB of memory and likely similar storage to the A56. Like its sibling, it gets Android 15, a 5,000mAh battery, and 45W charging. The back cameras match the A56, except for an 8MP wide-angle lens. It’s tough, has great sound, and a fingerprint sensor under the display.
Galaxy A26: Simple Yet Solid
The Galaxy A26 also has a 6.7-inch screen but with regular Gorilla Glass. It uses an Exynos 1380 chip and offers 6GB or 8GB memory, plus a memory card slot. Its cameras include a 50MP main, 8MP wide, and 2MP close-up lens, with a 13MP front camera. The battery is 5,000mAh but charges slower at 25W. It keeps the same connectivity and toughness as the others, though its fingerprint reader is on the side.
Price and Launch Info
These phones will cost the same as the last models: €479 for A56, €379 for A36, and €299 for A26 in Europe. They’ll debut at Mobile World Congress on March 2, 2025, and go on sale soon after. Samsung also promises six big updates for them in India!
