Three phones in the Galaxy A series lined up next to each other

The Galaxy A56 5G, Galaxy A36 5G and Galaxy A26 5G, the newest members of the Galaxy A series, are now available. Samsung has brought Awesome Intelligence to the A series for the first time – a comprehensive mobile AI that is available exclusively on these new models. 

Built with durability and longevity in mind, the new Galaxy A series models are designed to stand the test of time, while providing robust security powered by One UI 7, all presented in a refined design with exceptional battery life. Discover the key features below.

Awesome Intelligence

The Galaxy A56 5G, Galaxy A36 5G and Galaxy A26 5G all come with AI features including Google’s Circle to Search: by pressing and holding the navigation bar, you can search for anything from your screen. Circle to Search is now able to recognise URLs, phone numbers, and email addresses, as well as music that is playing on your phone.

All three models feature the refined Object Eraser, which allows you to remove unwanted objects from your photos using AI technology. These three devices also come with Filters, a feature that lets you create custom filters using colours and styles from photos you’ve already taken. Once you have your custom filter, you can apply it to other photos to suit your mood and taste.

Exclusively available on the Galaxy A56 5G, Best Face helps you capture the best group shot possible by combining the best expressions of up to five people from a motion photo. This means that if anyone blinked or looked away, you’ll still get a great group photo.

Cameras

The three models in the new A series have a triple-camera system, featuring a 50MP main lens on all devices. The Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G have 10-bit HDR recording on the front lens, which provides bright, crisp selfies.

The Galaxy A56 5G comes with enhanced Nightography. It now comes with Low Noise Mode on the 12Mp selfie camera and additional wide camera support, helping you to get the best shots even in low-light settings.

Performance and hardware

The new A series lineup comes with 5000mAh batteries, which provide up to 29 hours of video playback depending on the model. The Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G come with 45W charging power and Super Fast Charge 2.0 technology.

For the first time, all three devices in the A series, including the Galaxy A26 5G, have an IP67 dust and water resistance rating, providing strong protection against the elements. They also feature Advanced Corning ® Glass cover for an added layer of durability.
