Samsung officially announces Galaxy A launch event
Following the mega leak from earlier today, which revealed all possible details regarding the Galaxy A56, A36, and A26, Samsung has now officially announced its upcoming Galaxy A launch event. It's happening on March 2.
The company is calling this the Galaxy A launch event, without naming the specific phones which will be part of it, but with the most recent leaks, of course we're thinking of the aforementioned trio: the A56, A36, and A26.
That said, Samsung's teaser image (seen above) only shows two devices, so we might just be getting two of the three this time around, with the other possibly coming later. Samsung India currently lets you register your interest in the event and the new devices, and you can do that at the Source linked below.
Rumor has it the A56, A36, and A26 will share a 6.7-inch screen size and 1080x2340 resolution. The A56 and A36 have in-display fingerprint sensors, the A26's is in the power button. The A56 is powered by the Exynos 1580, the A36 by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, and the A26 by the Exynos 1380. The A56 gets 8GB of RAM, the A36 and A26 get 6/8GB.
All of them have a 50 MP main camera with OIS, the A56 has a 12 MP ultrawide, the other two an 8 MP ultrawide. There's also a third macro camera - 5 MP in the A56 and A36, 2 MP in the A26. For selfies the A56 and A36 have a 12 MP snapper, the A26 a 13 MP one.
Interestingly, all three of these have been rumored to launch running Android 15 with One UI 7 on board. Galaxy S24 owners will surely be looking at these mid-rangers with envy for at least the near future.

The smaller phone was the A40 series. A42 was the last A4x phone from Samsung. Maybe you should ask them to cancel A5x & resurrect A4x.

5 new phones and not a single smaller phone, all 6.7 bricks. I'm so utterly disappointed. I'm not even asking for a small phone: I'm asking for a SMALLER phone, like 6.4 or something. It this so much to ask for? A mid-range s25?

That would be great but looks like the opposite will happen. I can't believe they have had the same rear camera setup for 3 years. That is poor.
