I don't know. I kinda wanted the A36 as a spare phone, because Samsung + Qualcomm has been great historically, but the removal of microSD really hampered things for users like me. I'd rather take a Motorola at this point, or some of the new Nothing phones if I won't be having a microSD slot anyways.

If I really have to buy a mid-range smartphone without an SD slot, then I'll wait for the Tecno Camon 40 Pro to go on sale, at least on Dxomark it got an excellent score for the camera compared to competitors of the same price.

Removing both the stereo speakers and the headphone jack going from the A25 to the A26 is a big no-no.

Once again, Samsung offers day one the most overpriced mid range phones on the market.
500 for 8/128 A56 is a lot.
Biggest joke is A36 6/128
6gb ram for 400, what year is this Samsung?
If we ignore the awful day one pricing, A56 on a heavy discount looks promising performance/thermal/battery endurance wise.

I'd love to buy A76 - similar to A56 but with superior cameras (similar to S26 ultra, at least the main cam and one zoom cam, like 3x optical zoom) and a headphone jack. And since there's no A76, I'll be keeping A52s for now. I feel like A53-56 are downgrades from A52s - the headphone jack was removed but the rest of the hardware is more or less the same. Which is really weird, if you ask me. Did everyone just stop making phones? Yeah, I know, a few phones still have a headphone jack but they're mostly downgrades of A52s as well... makes it hard to upgrade to anything.
Good thing it's still working well!

the A56 is just a mid phone in terms of specs, its basically the iphone 16e in sammy's lineup.

I had been anxiously awaiting the release of the a56 because I wanted to upgrade my a53, but now that I read that it doesn't have an SD slot I will be forced to look for another brand of smartphone

The moment that I saw "No steteo speakers", I lost all of my interest for it.

one thing is for sure, to my friends who often ask me for advice on which smartphone to buy, I will advise against buying a phone without a micro sd slot and therefore I will say not to buy samsung a56.
in 2025 you can still find smartphones that have it.

I said before that the Pixel 6a, 7a and 7 seem like better deals at those price points even when the price of the A2/3/56 drops from the release price. But that’s just the prices in my location and also just my opinion.
