Galaxy A56 Sample Review // First Impressions

[GusB]

Just arrived, fresh from the dairy

A56 (2025)

New this year for the revised A5x series is this A56. In our house hold we have a mix of S and A series phones(S25u,S24+, A34 and A35) so I'm looking forward to comparing everything.

Retailing at £424 (but various offers available) this is WELL below the S series pricing but still not 'cheap' - It certainly doesn't feel cheap. Weighty, solid and nice materials.

I'll be looking to try out the camera, gaming, editing tasks, and general use compared to the phones listed above... 

Please let me know if you have any specific questions or tests you would like to see.

I agree definitely, but depending on the model and price, the A series deliver to expectations, they work with most apps but lack certain flagship features.

What puts me off the new phones is the camera's now, far to bulky, you can't lie the phone flat on a table without it rocking about. One reason I don't like my S25ultra perfer my old S22ultra.

Yes idk why cameras need to stick out like that. Not just Samsung phones. There are some really bizarre designs out there.

A34, A35 and A56

Said it before but the jump from A34 > A35 is noticeable and worthwhile from a look and feel alone.
