Fresh details are surfacing about Samsung’s next wave of popular mid-range phones. While attention is currently fixed on the upcoming Galaxy S26 lineup, new leaks suggest Samsung is also preparing to roll out the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37 soon after—potentially giving buyers more affordable new options in early 2026.
Earlier rumors pointed to a February 2026 announcement for the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37. Now, a newer report claims Samsung has shifted that timing to March instead. There’s no exact reveal date yet, but a March launch wouldn’t be surprising. The previous models in this lineup also arrived in March 2025, so this could simply be Samsung sticking to a familiar annual schedule rather than delaying anything.
There’s also a strong chance Samsung could use a major early-March tech event as the stage for the announcement, since the prior generation debuted around the same period. With Mobile World Congress 2026 taking place from March 2 through March 5, that window lines up neatly with the latest launch chatter.
Galaxy A57 rumored specs: display, chip, battery, cameras, and more
If the leak is accurate, the Galaxy A57 will feature a 6.6-inch AMOLED screen with a sharp FHD+ resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate—specs that have become increasingly expected in the upper mid-range category. Powering the phone is said to be the Exynos 1680 processor, paired with a 5,000mAh battery.
Charging could be one of the bigger selling points. The Galaxy A57 is rumored to support 45W fast wired charging, which would help it compete strongly against other mid-range Android phones in 2026.
On the camera side, the Galaxy A57 is tipped to include a 50MP main rear camera, a 12MP ultrawide lens, and a 5MP macro camera. For selfies, the punch-hole cutout is expected to house a 12MP front camera.
Other reported details include a 6.9mm thickness, a weight of 182 grams, and an IP68 dust and water resistance rating, which is notable at this price tier. The phone is also expected to ship with Android 16 out of the box, giving it the latest software from day one.
Galaxy A37 rumored specs: slightly larger screen and a different Exynos chip
The Galaxy A37 is rumored to come with a slightly bigger 6.7-inch AMOLED display, also offering FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Instead of the chip inside the A57, the A37 is said to run on the Exynos 1480 processor.
Battery specs appear to match the A57, with a 5,000mAh capacity and 45W wired fast charging. Camera hardware is expected to be similar but not identical: a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 5MP macro camera on the back, plus a 12MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls. Durability is also mentioned, with an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance.
What this could mean for buyers
If Samsung launches the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37 in March 2026, shoppers looking for a fresh mid-range Android phone won’t have to wait long after the Galaxy S26 series arrives. With AMOLED 120Hz displays, big 5,000mAh batteries, faster charging, and updated software, both models could end up being strong contenders for anyone who wants a modern Samsung phone without paying flagship prices.
For now, these details remain based on leaks, so final specs and the official launch date could still change. But if this report holds up, Samsung’s next Galaxy A phones are right around the corner.
