Note that during the pre-order period, Samsung offers a free storage upgrade in some regions. How does that sound to you?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"compare.php3?idPhone1=14379&amp;idPhone2=13603#diff-\">Compared to its predecessor<\/a>, the Galaxy A57 has a slimmer and lighter frame (6.9mm, 179g vs. 7.4mm, 198g) with better water resistance (IP68 vs. IP67). And it has a new chipset, the Exynos 1680, which replaces the 1580. The bezels around the 6.7\u201d 120Hz 1080p+ display are slimmer (the phone is shorter and narrower by 0.7mm), but the display seems the same otherwise.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"306\" alt=\"The Galaxy A57 is thinner and lighter than its predecessor\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1774776926_176_gsmarena_003.jpg\"\/><br \/>\nThe Galaxy A57 is thinner and lighter than its predecessor<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy A37 <a href=\"compare.php3?idPhone1=14378&amp;idPhone2=13497#diff-\">shares a lot with the A36<\/a>.

Looking at things this way, the list of improvements is longer \u2013 the display is bigger (by 0.1\u201d) and brighter, the battery has faster 45W charging (up from 25W) and both phones are slimmer and lighter than their 2024 counterparts.<\/p>\n<p>Still, though, for this kind of cash you can have a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 (OnePlus 15R) or a Snapdragon 8 Elite (Poco F8 Pro).
