Anonymous, 23 Mar 2025Nothing can go wrong with Samsung? Then all those display l... moreGreenlines are sort of true (I think?), probably phone getting too hot. And nah, I never heard of motherboard issue plaguing phones with Exynos, and my Exynos (850) phone is still alive after 4 years. But I think I've heard that POCO (Particularly X3 Pro) are plagued with dead motherboard issues after staggering long usage of merely only 3 years!

Better have green line rather than a dead phone, if you think about it. Everything can go very wrong with POCO/Xiaomi, you just don't know it yet

    We are spending 43k for this phone to get USB Type-C 2.0, OTG
    in 2025......


    Lolz

      Can you gsmarena please add condor brand it’s a big smartphone brand and I think you should add their phones in the site

        finally an Exynos chip that isnt a hot hoover bag but what is with that massive chin of the screen? its 2025 and low tier 250$ phones have better screen ratio why is samsung doing this ?
        and no WiFi 6E is just diabolical...no IP68 and no UFS 4.0 too.............500USD for 8/128 and 2021 tech is just bad man
        why anyone would buy this when 14T series exists?

          The solution I'll bring is:
          Samsung should get rid of once-original, now stereotypical A (short for Alpha, iykyk) naming, also the FE stuff under which it never was able to bring a product that appeals to the big crowds of fans in the intended way. Instead, they should bring more use to Edge lineup and also add an additional Ace (inferior to Edge) naming to S series by also abiding by the current design approach in these A36 and A56 and building on it because it's simple but pretty enough. These can be high-end smartphones with more room for experimenting (i.e. brand new camera sensors (from Sony or Samsung itself, even more thinness craze with first trial of TDDI technology, a new display technology) and chipsets such as Dimensity 8-series or Snapdragon 7/7+ series, or if they can't help but need to slap one in their smartphones, the Exynos 1-, not the top notch performance but satisfying enough to cater to those who cannot afford a flagship or not desire to have all configurations in a flagship for different kind of reasons. I believe this strategy is worth considering even just a bit and it can be a game changer in terms of making others such as Xiaomi question their strategies in midranges and high-end smartphones as they also slowly start to be struggling with providing enough value for money. Thank you all even if you didn't read it all and also for editors to share my opinions even if they will be received as utter trash or valueless by some folks.

            I know it's extremely random to write this here but I got an urge strong enough to make someone hear it out before it self-destructs itself:
            Current A series have some pluses such as a clean design and appealing colorways, even though it's largely bashed out here (even by me as well). But, previous A series smartphone (especially the iteration of the series in 2019 and 2020, the A80, A81, A91, just to name a few) had bigger promises in creativity and usability. However, the releases've been getting more and more obsolete after the launch of A52s, whose price for value Samsung hasn't able to surpass yet. You know, there have been news coming out recently that Samsung wants to abandon Galaxy branding for midrange and low-end smartphones and they have my back if they ever really do it one day but they should not let the spirit of A series totally disappear in the thin air.

                Why is it so hard to put a microsd card slot?

                Would have been a purchase from me if it had it.

                  Compact flagships are still better than these, this phone can't even beat the galaxy S21 fe released 4 years ago lol

                        thanks for your good review GSM team.it is time for samsung to know they need to upgrade their phones to stay in the market instead they downgrade and simply just increase the price

                          Micro SD no longer cost effective (i.e.: 512GB), with cheaper price we can get SSD, just plug that in router and my problem solved. I can also easily share it with my other phones and can do it remotely across continents when I need to.

                                  In the Philippines, the selfie video camera is at 30fps only. Disappointing. :(

                                    I don't have much complain for the HW as Xiaomi usually priced lower than competitors, but do never get anything below Redmi Note Pro series for long term usages. Xiaomi sparepart are cheaper as well and easily to get in Indonesia (official service center).

                                    A56 is my first Samsung after S7 Edge, let's see.

You get what you paid for, now what is that hardware for anyways? The phone now needs to stay close with a charger like a life support

                                      Nothing can go wrong with Samsung from my experience, barely, to no slowdowns, or battert drain after updating
