Samsung Galaxy A56 5G specs, price in the Philippines

Alongside the Galaxy A36 5G, Samsung has officially unveiled the Galaxy A56 5G—the successor to last year’s Galaxy A55 5G.

It still boasts Samsung’s in-house chip, with the new Exynos 1580 SoC. Display-wise, all models in the 2025 Galaxy A-Series get a 6.7-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate.

Right off the bat, it comes with One UI 7 on top of Android 15, making it one of the first devices to receive the latest software—outpacing even the Galaxy S24 lineup, which is still stuck on One UI 6.

Speaking of software, Samsung is guaranteeing six major OS updates and six years of security patches for the Galaxy A56.

The brand is also integrating the so-called ‘Awesome Intelligence’ that includes Google’s Circle to Search, Best Face, and Object Eraser among others.
