Samsung Galaxy A57 5G, 8GB 256GB, 6.6 Super AMOLED LTPO, 5000mAh, Ice Blue

Samsung Galaxy A57 5G

With an emphasis on endurance and consistent performance, the Samsung Galaxy A57 5G refreshes the company's mid-range offering. At 6.9 millimetres thick, the chassis is slimmer and swaps polycarbonate for an aluminium surround. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ covers both the front and the back, while IP67 certification ensures protection against dust and water immersion of up to one metre for 30 minutes.

LTPO screen with 1,900 nits of brightness

A 6.6-inch flat Super AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution is included. Its key technological highlight is an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 1 to 120 Hz via LTPO technology, which helps to lower power usage. Peak brightness reaches 1,900 nits, maintaining legibility in outdoor conditions. Eye Comfort Shield 2.0 is also on board to limit blue light, along with HDR10+ support.

Exynos 4nm architecture and RDNA 3.5 graphics

At the helm is Samsung's Exynos 1680 chip, built on a 4 nanometre process. It pairs with the Samsung Xclipse 550 GPU, which uses AMD's RDNA 3.5 architecture to handle demanding graphics. This variant comes with 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. Following the current trend in this segment, the microSD card slot is no longer present.

Cameras with advanced stabilisation

Three sensors make up the rear module. The primary 50-megapixel (f/1.8) sensor includes Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) and PDAF focusing. It is joined by a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle (123°) and a 5-megapixel macro lens. The 12-megapixel front camera supports 4K video recording at 60fps, backed by the VDIS electronic stabilisation system.

45W fast charging and long-term support

The 5,000 mAh battery now offers 45W fast charging, reaching 50% charge in roughly 25 minutes. For connectivity, it provides Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 6.0 and Dual SIM support (Nano-SIM + eSIM). The phone ships with One UI 8.5 based on Android 16, with an official pledge of 6 years of system updates and security patches.
