Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great budget cell phone option. This phone offers most of the features of a flagship phone at a great price. Big, bright display with great resolution, while battery lasts at least 1 full day with average usage. Also fast and responsive, great for web surfing as well as binge watching on the go and takes great pictures in most conditions too.

The Upgrade Justification: Connectivity Solved The primary reason for replacing an aging but otherwise functional Galaxy A50 was the persistent, frustrating connectivity issues with a newer wearable, specifically the Galaxy Watch 6. The A50's outdated software caused constant disconnections and re-pairing nightmares. The A56 completely solves this—the connection is now rock-solid and seamless, finally allowing the Watch 6 to be used as intended without losing settings. This alone makes the upgrade worthwhile. Performance and User Experience (Awesome Improvements) My mother's experience has been overwhelmingly positive: Speed and Responsiveness: The phone is noticeably more responsive to tactile input and operates with a snappy, modern speed, a major jump from the older model. Camera Quality: The new, better cameras are a highlight, capturing sharper and more detailed images. Fast Charging: Charging is significantly faster, especially when paired with an Anker wall charger. This is a huge convenience boost, meaning less time tethered to an outlet. Design & Comfort: It feels better to hold than the A50, and the longer-lasting battery life is a welcome return to all-day reliability. Audio: The loud speakers ensure she can clearly hear notifications and calls, which pairs perfectly with the ability to answer directly from her Galaxy Watch 6. Value and Minor Drawback At its price point, the Galaxy A56 is a superb modern device. It offers virtually all the essential, high-performance "goodies" of my own older flagship Note 10+, making it a phenomenal value in a market where phone prices are steadily increasing. The only minor con noted was the lack of a factory-applied screen protector, a small detail she missed from previous flagship Samsung models as the Note10+; but nothing that a ZAGG - Glass Elite could not solve. Final Verdict The Samsung Galaxy A56 is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable, feature-rich mid-range smartphone. For users upgrading from an older A-series phone, the jump in camera quality, battery life, performance, and crucial connectivity is massive. It's a fantastic gift and a powerful piece of technology at a reasonable price.

Awesome mid range phone. Has a fast processor and is about half the price of the flagship Samsung Galaxy S25

Overall its a good phone. But it has reception issues. Trying to figure it out. The phone was also supposed to be delivered next day. It took 4 days to be delivered which put us in a bad situation.

Really good middle price range phone. I got it to replace my old galaxy phone. Its higher resolution and nicer camera.

Arrived quickly, and was exactly what i expected. Brand new, feels solid, and excellent baytery life!

Great mid level phone and for the price, it's amazing. Great for phone games so i got it for my 10yo as she's had hers for 3 years and finally decided i should upgrade. Camera is definitely better than many others, her old one felt like a vintage camera in comparison lol. Battery life is also fantastic.
