Samsung’s new mid-range phones promise six years of updates and AI tricks, but the spec sheet still says 8 MP ultra-wide.
Samsung announced the Galaxy A57 5G and A37 5G on April 10 for select markets. Both phones ship with six years of OS and security support, a 5 000 mAh battery and IP68 water resistance. Samsung says the flagship A57 5G is its most powerful A series device yet.
One UI 8.5 adds Voice Trans in the recorder, AI Select on the edge panel and an improved Object Eraser. Circle to Search now spots multiple objects in one image. Bixby and Gemini both live on the phone as conversational agents.
Camera hardware repeats last year’s formula: 50 MP main plus 8 MP ultra-wide and 5 MP macro on the A37 5G and 12 MP ultra-wide on the A57 5G. Samsung claims improved nightography and AI scene optimization for clearer backgrounds and better group shots.
Galaxy A57 5G is 6.9 mm thin and 179 g. Super Fast Charging 2.0 hits 60 per cent in 30 minutes. A larger vapor chamber and up to 120 Hz Super AMOLED with Vision booster round out the package.
Longevity is the real selling point: six generations of Android upgrades and six years of security patches. Samsung Knox and a new Private Album hide photos behind Knox Vault hardware.
Look, the only concrete numbers on paper are 6.9 mm, 30 minutes to 60 per cent and six years of updates. Everything else — the long list of AI features, the new Awesome Intelligence branding, the promise of better night shots is still a press release.
