Samsung has officially launched the new Galaxy A36 5G in the Philippines along with the Galaxy A56 5G.
On paper, the new Galaxy A36 features key upgrades from its predecessor, the Galaxy A35 5G. For starters, it now uses a Qualcomm chipset, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, and a slightly larger, brighter 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display.
It also gets an eSIM support which the previous model lacked, and it supports a faster 45W of wired charging.
Samsung also guarantees six years of major OS upgrades and six years of security patches for the Galaxy A36.
