Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 leak hours before launch; Samsung takes down YouTube video leak

Galaxy A37, A57 hands-on.

Detailed leaks have fully unmasked the Samsung Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 ahead of their official March 25 debut. These mid-range contenders feature 6.7-inch 120Hz displays, 45W fast charging, and a shift to Exynos chipsets, with prices starting around $420. Samsung appears to be tightening security following the leak, as a detailed hands-on video has already been scrubbed from the web.

Following a series of leaks, Samsung’s new Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 mid-rangers are hours from becoming official. But this didn’t stop the leaks from… leaking.

After appearing in a detailed hands-on video from Vietnam and being listed prematurely by Vodafone South Africa, nearly all major specs and pricing estimates about the Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 are now here ahead of their official announcement on Wednesday, March 25.

Notably, the most recent leaks suggest a potential price hike. That aside, both models reportedly feature a slimmer profile than their 2025 predecessors but retain the "Key Island" design. The Galaxy A57 continues to use a premium metal frame, while the Galaxy A37 sticks to plastic. And both seem to feature a new layered (?) camera island design.

Leaked specifications	Galaxy A37	Galaxy A57
Display	6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED	6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED
Processor	Exynos 1480	Exynos 1680
Camera	50MP primary, 8MP ultra-wide, 5MP macro	50MP primary, 12MP ultra-wide, 5MP macro
Battery & Charging	5,000 mAh (45W charging)	5,000 mAh (45W charging)
Price	420 USD / 365 EUR (converted - local pricing to be different)	475 USD / 410 EUR (converted - local pricing could be different)

The more affordable Galaxy A37 is getting the Exynos 1480 chip, which is now two generations old, as found in the Galaxy A55. On the other hand, the Galaxy A57 gets the Exynos 1680 - Samsung’s newest mid-range SoC. Both phones are expected to ship with One UI 8.5 based on Android 16, supported by six years of OS updates - a real selling point in the mid-range segment.

By the way, Samsung appears to be taking some action against the leaks. The original hands-on video from Vietnam is now unavailable on YouTube. This follows reports that the company has introduced secure chat rooms for employees to mitigate leaks, suggesting stricter focus on protecting new phones from appearing online before launch.
