Samsung Galaxy A56: Ultimate Buyers Guide

By 
 

 

 The Samsung Galaxy A56 5G arrived in March 2025 along with two of its siblings, the Galaxy A26 5G and Galaxy A36 5G. This smartphone is the most powerful in the series, even though it’s just a mid-range smartphone. It’s aimed at consumers who don’t require flagship smartphones like devices from the Galaxy S25 series and users who are not interested in foldable devices such as the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6.


The Galaxy A56 does come with a solid spec sheet, which we’ll talk about in a second, and it also has a nice design. Samsung wanted to create a nice-looking smartphone that will appeal to consumers while keeping the price in check. Granted, the Galaxy A56 is not exactly cheap, but it’s not expensive either, more on that soon. Let’s get down to specs, and then we’ll move to various other sections.


The Samsung Galaxy A56 specs

The Samsung Galaxy A56 is a mid-range smartphone, and such are its specifications. The phone is fueled by the Samsung Exynos 1580 processor. That chip is combined with 8GB or 12GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. Do note that storage expansion is not available, though, and that some markets could have different RAM and storage configurations. In the US, the phone comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage only. No other options are available.

A 6.7-inch fullHD+ Super AMOLED display is used here. The display is flat, and it supports a 120Hz refresh rate. Android 15 comes pre-installed on the phone, along with Samsung’s One UI 7 skin. A 5,000mAh battery sits on the inside of the phone, while the device supports 45W charging. Wireless charging is not supported here. The device is IP67 certified for water and dust resistance, though.


Samsung did promise 6 years of Android OS and security updates for the device. That’s not bad at all, considering this is a mid-range handset. Now, in regards to cameras. There are three located on the back. A 50-megapixel main camera (f/1.8 aperture, OIS) is backed by a 12-megapixel ultrawide camera (f/2.2 aperture) and a 5-megapixel macro camera (f/2.4 aperture). There is also a 12-megapixel selfie camera (f/2.2 aperture) included here.


The Samsung Galaxy A56 measures 162.2 x 77.5 x 7.4mm and weighs 198 grams. It comes in four colors: Awesome Graphite, Awesome Lightgray, Awesome Olive, and Awesome Pink.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Model Numbers Spotted, No Plus Variant

 Samsung has been in the news a lot in recent weeks. Just yesterday, the company launched its new foldable Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7, among other products. However, the rumor mill continues to swirl, and the firm’s next flagship mobile phones are already showing signs of life. In a recent development, the model numbers for the Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup have been spotted by a certification body. The most interesting aspect seems to be the potential absence of a “Plus” model for 2026. For years, Samsung’s top-tier S-series phones have generally followed a predictable pattern: a standard model, a “Plus” variant, and a super-premium “Ultra.” But as new model numbers for the Galaxy S26 begin to surface, there’s a glaring omission: where’s the Galaxy S26 Plus? Samsung Galaxy S26 model numbers leave out the S26 Plus Database listings (spotted by SammyPolice) from GSMA currently show three devices. There are model numbers for the core Galaxy S26 (SM-S942), a distinctive Galaxy S2...

Poco F7 review

  Introduction Poco has officially unveiled the new Poco F7, positioning it as a strong contender in the value flagship segment—right where it belongs. As the successor to the widely praised F6, the F7 stays true to Poco's playbook: delivering blazing performance and sleek design without the flagship price tag. Over the years, the F-series has become synonymous with exceptional performance for the price. Remember the trailblazing Poco F1 from 2018? Successive models like the F3 and F5 carried that legacy forward, packing top-tier chipsets and high-refresh-rate OLED displays. The F7 picks up the baton, positioning itself just above the X-series while undercutting Xiaomi's own premium killers - all with the trademark confidence that has come to define Poco. With the Poco F7, you get a Snapdragon 8-series processor (the S variant, but still technically a flagship chip), a vibrant 120 Hz AMOLED display, and a dual-camera setup promising everyday excellence. All of this comes wrappe...
