Samsung’s latest additions to its Galaxy A series: the Galaxy A56 5G, Galaxy A36 5G, and Galaxy A26 5G arrive to the UAE. These new smartphones aim to provide users with a range of features, including improved camera capabilities, extended software support, and enhanced durability, all while maintaining a competitive price point.
A key aspect of these new devices is the integration of advanced software features. The inclusion of tools designed to streamline search and enhance visual content creation is a noticeable advancement. For instance, the updated Circle to Search function allows users to quickly identify and interact with on-screen information, such as phone numbers, emails, and URLs, with a single tap. Additionally, the ability to identify music playing, without switching applications, is a useful feature for many users.
The camera systems across the Galaxy A series have received upgrades. All three models feature a 50MP main lens, and the A56 5G and A36 5G include 10-bit HDR front lens recording for improved selfie quality. The Galaxy A56 5G also features a 12MP ultra-wide lens, expanding photographic options. Software-based editing tools, such as the ability to remove unwanted objects from photos and create custom filters, further contribute to the user’s creative control. The A56 5G also contains a “Best Face” feature, that allows the user to take a group photo, and ensure everyone looks there best.
One of the more prominent aspects of these new phones is the focus on longevity. Samsung is offering up to six generations of Android OS and One UI upgrades, along with six years of security updates. This extended software support aims to provide users with a reliable and up-to-date experience over an extended period.
The Galaxy A56 5G and Galaxy A36 5G feature larger 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED displays with increased brightness levels, intended to enhance the viewing experience. Stereo speakers are also included for improved audio output. All three models are equipped with a 5,000mAh battery, and the A56 5G and A36 5G support 45W charging.
Durability is another focus of the new Galaxy A series. The Galaxy A26 5G now features an IP67 dust and water resistance rating, matching the A36 5G and A56 5G. This level of protection aims to provide users with increased peace of mind in various environmental conditions. Additionally, the use of advanced Corning® Glass aims to protect against scratches and cracks.
Security and privacy are also addressed with the integration of One UI 7. The inclusion of Samsung Knox Vault provides an additional layer of security for sensitive data. The new One UI 7 security and privacy features also improve theft detection, and security settings.
The Galaxy A series is available in a range of colors, with specific options varying by model. The Galaxy A26 5G, A36 5G, and A56 5G are offered at different price points, catering to a range of budgets.
To enhance the value proposition, Samsung is offering exclusive privileges to Samsung Members in the UAE. These include complimentary subscriptions to various entertainment and lifestyle apps, such as Yango Play, SAMSUNG ENTERTAINER, OSN+, Anghami Plus, and Viu Premium. These offers aim to add value to the purchase of the new Galaxy A series smartphones.
