Samsung is expected to update its upper mid-range Galaxy A lineup in the coming weeks, with the Samsung Galaxy A57 and Samsung Galaxy A37 set to succeed the Galaxy A56 and Galaxy A36 launched in India in March last year. Leaks over the past few weeks have revealed their chipsets, charging speeds and durability features. A new report now adds their colour options.
According to WinFuture’s Roland Quandt, the Galaxy A57 could launch in Charcoal, Icyblue, Grey, Lilac and Navy. The Galaxy A37 is said to arrive in White, Charcoal, Greygreen, Lavender and Navy. Samsung is expected to retain its “Awesome” naming convention for these finishes.
On hardware, the Galaxy A57 is tipped to use Samsung’s Exynos 1680 chipset, while the Galaxy A37 may run on the Exynos 1480. Both devices are reported to support 45W wired charging and carry an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance and NFC support. Both the Galaxy A37 and A57 are expected to include a 5,000mAh battery, while the A57 may feature an OLED panel sourced from BOE.
For context, the Samsung Galaxy A56 5G launched in India at Rs 41,999 for the 8GB + 128GB variant with an Exynos 1580 processor. The Samsung Galaxy A36 5G started at Rs 32,999 with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset. The A57 and A37 are expected to occupy similar or slightly higher price bands. Across the market, mid-range successors over the past year have largely launched at higher prices than the models they succeeded as component costs and tighter margins have pushed prices upward.
Samsung’s Galaxy A lineup in this range has typically focused on AMOLED displays, IP68 ratings and extended software support rather than peak chipset performance. Pricing at launch will determine how closely the new models compete within an increasingly crowded field. The Nothing Phone (4a) series with a strong design proposition are expected to be unveiled in the same segment. Samsung’s A-series phones usually appeal to those who want steady performance, water resistance and the reassurance of long software support, rather than chasing the highest benchmark scores. If that’s your priority, the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37 could be potential choices once pricing is clear. But this price band is crowded, and alternatives like the Nothing Phone (4a) series are expected to focus strongly on design and competitive hardware. It may be worth waiting for final prices and launch offers before deciding, especially if the gap between brands is narrow.
An earlier report pointed to a February 2026 unveiling for the Samsung phones, but that timeline passed without an announcement. Last year’s refresh took place in March, so we can expect the announcement soon.
