Pros & Cons

What we like

Bright 120Hz Super AMOLED display
Long software support, up to 6 major Android updates
IP67 rating and stereo speakers
Often discounted now that the A57 has launched

What we don’t

No microSD slot
Charging tops out at 45W and no wireless charging
Heavier and thicker than the A57 (198 g, 7.4 mm)
Exynos 1580 is a mid-range chip

The Pipino Verdict

The Galaxy A56 5G is still a solid mid-range pick, especially while its price drops after the A57 launch. Rated on specs and value only, as TechPipino has not tested it. Choose the A57 for a slimmer IP68 body and Wi-Fi 6E.
