The Galaxy A37<\/a> might not be quite as powerful as the Galaxy A57, but the gap isn\u2019t as massive as you might think, and you\u2019ll save $100 in the process. For just $450, the Galaxy A37 offers a reasonably decent Exynos processor, a beautiful AMOLED display, and a basic but capable camera package.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re on a budget, Samsung\u2019s cheaper mid-ranger is certainly worth your consideration. Of course, for just a bit more money, you can actually find several handsets that pack a bigger punch. With that in mind, here are a few other Android phones you should also consider before making up your mind and settling on the Galaxy A37. Be aware that this list was primarily written with the US market in mind.<\/p>\n What do you think is the best Samsung Galaxy A37 alternative?<\/p>\n 746 votes<\/p>\n Samsung Galaxy A57<\/p>\n 19%<\/p>\n Google Pixel 10a<\/p>\n 20%<\/p>\n Motorola Moto G Stylus (2026)<\/p>\n 20%<\/p>\n Nothing Phone 4a Pro<\/p>\n 12%<\/p>\n Samsung Galaxy 24<\/p>\n 23%<\/p>\n Other (Let us know in the comments)<\/p>\n 6%<\/p>\n Samsung Galaxy A57<\/p>\n Rushil Agrawal \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n Mostly sold on the Galaxy A37, but looking for just a slight bit more from it? The Galaxy A57<\/a> shares a lot of the same DNA, but for $550, you\u2019ll find it also adds quite a few upgrades of its own.<\/p>\n The Galaxy A57 not only has a faster Exynos processor but also upgrades to 8GB of RAM (compared to 6GB on the A37). While the camera package is mostly the same, the A57 does have a slightly better 12MP ultrawide lens. Beyond that, the Galaxy A57 has a premium aluminum frame that stands out a bit more than the A37\u2019s plastic frame.<\/p>\n Beyond that, you\u2019ll find the Galaxy A37 and A57 are very similar animals. They have the same displays, batteries, and solid software update policy. Ultimately, you have to decide what matters more to you: saving $100 or having a somewhat faster device with a more premium build.<\/p>\n Samsung Galaxy A57 5G<\/a> Great build quality \u2022 Fast charging \u2022 Versatile cameras<\/p>\n The Samsung Galaxy A57 5G is a mid-range Android phone with a smooth AMOLED display, dependable all-day battery life, and Samsung\u2019s polished One UI experience, paired with a versatile multi-camera setup, fast charging, and long-term software support for reliable everyday use.<\/p>\n Google Pixel 10a\n<\/p>\n If you aren\u2019t absolutely set on a Samsung phone, the Google Pixel 10a<\/a> is worth a close look. I actually picked this phone up myself recently as a secondary device and have been fairly impressed with it.<\/p>\n For just $50 more than the Galaxy A37, you get an excellent camera package that is genuinely better and doesn\u2019t jut out as the Galaxy A37\u2019s camera sensors do. You\u2019ll also find that Google\u2019s Pixel UI is highly responsive, fluid, and packed with just the right mix between minimalism and stand-out features.<\/p>\n While the Tensor G4 might not be up to the same standards as many high-end Snapdragon chipsets, the Pixel 10a\u2019s processor actually is a solid step above the Galaxy A37\u2019s much more modest Exynos 1480. You\u2019re also just a tiny bit larger battery, wireless charging, and 8GB of RAM versus just 6GB on the A37.<\/p>\n Samsung\u2019s slightly cheaper alternative might have some clear disadvantages, but it\u2019s not without its own upsides. First, it has 45W charging, versus the Pixel\u2019s 30W. It also has a larger 6.7-inch display for those who prefer larger screens, compared to the Pixel 10a\u2019s 6.3-inch screen. However, if charging speeds aren\u2019t important to you and you prefer a smaller phone, the Pixel 10a is well worth the money.<\/p>\n Google Pixel 10a<\/a> Flush camera design \u2022 Good performance and battery life \u2022 Strong cameras \u2022 Great software support promise \u2022 Excellent price<\/p>\n Google’s best AI features, in a more affordable mid-tier device<\/p>\n Google Pixel 10a is a refined mid-range phone built around Tensor G4, a brighter 120Hz 6.3-inch display, tougher Gorilla Glass 7i, satellite SOS, and trickled-down Pixel AI features \u2014 paired with a reliable dual-camera system, 30W charging, and seven years of updates.<\/p>\n \u00a0Motorola Moto G Stylus (2026)<\/p>\n Stephen Radochia \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n Looking for something a bit different? It might not stand out much in the looks department, but the $500 Moto G Stylus (2026)<\/a> is a mid-ranger that evokes the energy of the aging Galaxy Note series thanks to its new active stylus.<\/p>\n The stylus now has palm rejection, Circle to Search integration, and a few other tricks that make it a small step closer to the S-Pen than to the more basic stylus used in past Moto G Stylus models.<\/p>\n The Moto G Stylus also has a 50MP main camera, just like the Galaxy A37, but one-ups it by including a 13MP ultrawide camera compared to Samsung\u2019s 8MP ultrawide option. You\u2019ll also get much faster charging here, thanks to Motorola\u2019s 68W TurboPower charging technology. Unlike Samsung, Motorola also includes 15W wireless charging.<\/p>\n While the Moto G Stylus (2026) has its positive side, the Samsung A37 has a faster, more modern processor. You\u2019ll also find the Galaxy A37 has a much better software update policy. Those are serious benefits, but if you like the idea of an included stylus and much faster charging, Motorola\u2019s phone is worth a look.<\/p>\n Motorola Moto G Stylus (2026)<\/a> New active stylus \u2022 microSD card slot \u2022 3.5mm headphone jack<\/p>\n Stylus on a budget<\/p>\n The Moto G Stylus 2026 is a mid-range Android phone built around an upgraded active stylus with pressure and tilt sensitivity, paired with a 6.7-inch 120Hz OLED display, Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 performance, IP69 durability, 68W charging, and a 5,200mAh battery for productivity and entertainment on a budget.<\/p>\n Nothing Phone 4a Pro\n<\/p>\n While there have been some great mid-rangers on this list already, the truth is that most devices in this price range sacrifice design to push specs as far as they can within a budget package. Thankfully, the Nothing Phone 4a Pro<\/a> manages to do both things equally well.<\/p>\n Priced around $500, the Nothing Phone 4a Pro has a unique design, centered on its large transparent camera bump that houses an equally unusual camera placement. There\u2019s also a Glyph Matrix secondary display that helps provide basic glanceable info without opening your phone.<\/p>\n The Nothing Phone 4a Pro has a fairly solid camera setup, with a periscope telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom, a 50MP Sony LYT-710 primary camera sensor, and an 8MP ultrawide shooter. You\u2019ll also get a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 here, versus the considerably weaker Exynos 1480 found within the Galaxy A37. Last but not least, you\u2019ll find that the Nothing Phone 4a Pro has a slightly larger battery and a cleaner UI that might be preferred to the heavier Samsung One UI.<\/p>\n Of course, the Galaxy A37 isn\u2019t without a few minor advantages of its own. First, the A37 has a stronger IP rating of IP68 vs. the Nothing Phone 4a Pro\u2019s IP65 rating. That means both are equally dust-tight, but the former has better water protection. Samsung also has a much better software update policy, with six years of OS updates and security fixes. Meanwhile, Nothing promises just three years of OS updates.<\/p>\n Nothing Phone 4a Pro<\/a> Updated aluminum design \u2022 Larger Glyph Matrix \u2022 New chipset<\/p>\n The Nothing A series goes official in the US<\/p>\n The Nothing Phone 4a Pro is a standout mid-range phone with a bold Glyph Matrix design, Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 performance, and a 144Hz AMOLED display \u2014 paired with a versatile triple-camera system including a 50MP periscope zoom, all aimed at delivering flagship-style features at a $499 price point.<\/p>\n Samsung Galaxy S24<\/p>\n Robert Triggs \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n Galaxy S24<\/p>\n The Galaxy S24<\/a> is a great phone that I\u2019ve been rocking as my primary handset for about two years now, so why is this aging device on the list? Well, it\u2019s actually quite easy to find for around $350-$400 refurbished<\/a> on Amazon.<\/p>\n Even two years later, this aging flagship still has a massively more powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and a camera package that stands out thanks to its higher resolution 12MP ultrawide shooter and 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. You\u2019ll also get a more premium build here, and there\u2019s still quite a bit of life left in its software update cycle.<\/p>\n The mid-range Samsung Galaxy A37 does have the advantage of being newer, though, and it offers a few upgrades that Samsung has focused on over the years. First, it has a 1,000mAh larger battery than the Galaxy S24, and the A37 also supports faster 45W charging. While this might matter less to some, the A37 also has a larger 6.7-inch display, though the Galaxy S24 has greater peak brightness and a dynamic refresh rate.<\/p>\n![\"Samsung](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260427_170814-scaled.jpg\"\/ "\\"Samsung")
