Samsung has officially launched the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37 in India on March 25, 2026, at 5:30 PM IST, marking a significant refresh to its mid-range A-series lineup. These successors to the Galaxy A56 and A36 bring upgraded displays, powerful Exynos chipsets, and enhanced camera systems, targeting budget-conscious buyers seeking premium features. The event, teased by Samsung India on social media, generated massive buzz among tech enthusiasts in Delhi and across the country.
Design and Build Quality
Both smartphones sport a sleek, modern design with slim profiles compared to predecessors, featuring flat-edged frames and matte finishes in vibrant colors like Awesome Lightgray, Awesome Lime, and Awesome Lavender. They boast IP68 dust and water resistance, ensuring durability for everyday use in India’s diverse climates. The Galaxy A57 measures approximately 161.6 x 77.5 x 7.7mm, while the A37 is slightly taller at 6.7-inch form factor, both weighing under 200g for comfortable handling.
A standout feature is the Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection on the front, paired with aluminum frames, offering premium feel without the flagship price tag. Samsung emphasized eco-friendly materials, with 20% recycled plastic in the back panels, aligning with their sustainability goals.
Display and Performance
The duo features 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED displays with 120Hz refresh rates and up to 1,900 nits peak brightness via Vision Booster technology, ideal for outdoor visibility in sunny Delhi streets. This ensures smooth scrolling, vibrant colors, and HDR10+ support for streaming on Netflix or Hotstar.
Powering the Galaxy A57 is the Exynos 1680 chipset (4nm process), paired with 6GB/8GB LPDDR5X RAM and 128/256GB UFS 3.1 storage, expandable via microSD. The A37 uses the Exynos 1480, still delivering solid multitasking for gaming like BGMI or PUBG at high settings. Both run Android 16-based One UI 8.5 out-of-the-box, promising 6 years of OS updates and 7 years of security patches.
Camera Capabilities
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the triple rear setup: 50MP OIS main sensor (f/1.8), 12MP ultrawide (107° FOV) on A57 or 8MP on A37, and 5MP macro for close-ups. Nightography mode with AI enhancements delivers sharp low-light shots, while 10-bit HDR video recording at 4K@30fps shines for vlogs. Up front, a 12MP selfie camera with Night selfies and AI Portrait Studio effects rounds out the package.
Battery and Charging
A massive 5,000mAh battery powers all-day usage, with the A57 supporting 45W Super Fast Charging (50% in 20 minutes) and A37 hitting 60% in 30 minutes via Super Fast Charging 2.0. Adaptive Battery AI optimizes power based on usage patterns, perfect for content creators editing videos on the go.
