Samsung prepares to launch Galaxy A56 & A36 as support pages go live
Samsung is expected to refresh its budget Galaxy A series lineup. Previously, we covered the leaked details of the Galaxy A56. Now, the support page for the mid-range phone is live, hinting at an imminent launch.
Apart from the Galaxy A56, the support page of the more affordable Galaxy A36 is also live in France. This hints that both devices are not far from launch in the country.
The Galaxy A56 is listed with the model number SM-A566B, and the Galaxy A36 with SM-A366B. The support page does not reveal any specifications or features; however, the previous leaks and rumors have hinted at what the phones might offer.
The Galaxy A56 is expected to get a major design overhaul. It may feature the Exynos 1580, an improved SoC compared to the Exynos 1480 found on the Galaxy A55 (currently available on Amazon for $329). The battery capacity may not improve over the previous generation. However, the phone may get support for 45W wired charging.
On the other hand, the Galaxy A36 may also feature a new rear camera design. Rumors suggest it will be slightly smaller than its predecessor. The display of the A36 may measure 6.64 inches. It may feature a Qualcomm processor, with rumors hinting at it being the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 or Snapdragon 7s Gen 2.
The Galaxy A55 and A35 models were released in March last year. January seems unlikely for the A series phones, as Samsung may want to keep the spotlight on the Galaxy S25 series launch. Therefore, February or March appears more likely for the release of the new A series models.
