After CAD-based renders that surfaced last year, press renders of the Galaxy A56, Galaxy A36 and the Galaxy A26 smartphones in the upcoming Samsung A series have surfaced, thanks to tipster @MysteryLupin.
One thing that is common in all the phones is the camera deco and the camera ring that resembles the one in the Galaxy S25 series. The side and bottom bezels still bigger compared to the competition.
Similar to the A16 5G, these are also expected to come with 6 OS updates, and it should run One UI 7.0 out of the box. The A56 and A36 should come with IP67 ratings.

However, it is said to get a new 12-megapixel sensor for the front camera. Even though this is said to retain the 5000mAh battery, the phone is finally expected to get 45W fast charging support.
