The overall rating is based on expert reviews.
Say hello to the Samsung Galaxy A56 5G, a mid-range phone that punches above its weight. It’s got a gorgeous 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED screen with a buttery-smooth 120Hz refresh rate, making it an excellent device for binge-watching shows, gaming, or just flipping through your feed. The display pops with bright colors, hits up to 1900 nits for sunlight readability, and has Gorilla Glass Victus+ on both sides to keep it tough.
Inside, the A56 is rocking the new 4nm Exynos 1580 chip, which Samsung says is 18% faster than its predecessor and 16% better on graphics. Whether you’re juggling apps or playing resource-intensive games, it’s got your back with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of storage. It ships with Android 15 and One UI 7, and Samsung is promising six years of updates, so it’ll stay fresh for a while.
Camera-wise, you’re getting a solid trio: a 50MP main shooter with stabilization for sharp pics, a 12MP ultra-wide lens for big landscapes, and a 5MP macro for tiny details. Selfies? No problem! The 12MP front cam’s got you covered, day or night. The 5000mAh battery lasts all day and charges fast with 45W support.
All in all, the Galaxy A56 5G brings a lot to the table for the price: style, power, and features that will keep you happy without breaking the bank.
The Samsung Galaxy A56 5G price in the Philippines is ₱23,990 for the 8GB + 128GB variant and ₱25,990 for the 8GB + 256GB variant. Both will be available in Samsung Experience Stores and partner retailers starting March 17, 2025, and through the Samsung Online Store beginning March 24, 2025.
