Samsung is reportedly abandoning its traditional design aesthetic with the impending release of the Galaxy A36 and potentially the A56. Thanks to innovative 3D rendering technology, we’re able to get a first glimpse of the fresh new design through these striking visuals. Giznext and OnLeaks.
The forthcoming smartphone may be taking a bold step forward in design – its triple-camera setup is no longer comprising individual modules, but instead forms a cohesive “camera island” featuring a unique vertical alignment. In recent times, we’ve experienced similarities with what existed a few years ago among other things.
Samsung may retain some design elements from its current A-series, echoing the familiar Key Island feature, where the bumps accommodate the Energy and Volume controls. The A36 may be slightly narrower than its A35 counterpart, measuring just 77.9mm in width – versus Which dimension will guide your journey to the mystical Key Island: a mere 78.0mm or perhaps the slightly more promising 78.4mm? The brand-new mannequin stands slightly taller at 162.6 millimeters, compared to 161.7mm).
Samsung has bumped up the display size of its Galaxy A36 to an impressive 6.64 inches, a slight increase from the previous 6.60-inch screen. The new mannequin is expected to be a slight upgrade, boasting a slimmer profile at 7.4mm in thickness, a notable reduction of 0.8mm compared to its predecessor’s 8.2mm measurement. With the added bulk of the digital camera module, the overall device now measures a notable 9.6mm in thickness. There is no phrase regarding the battery’s capabilities.
The Samsung Galaxy A36 (SM-A366B) has recently been spotted running on Android 15. The device features either a Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 or 7 Series 2 processor. The recent A3x collection has undergone a significant change, with a shift in processors: whereas the A34 featured Dimensity 1080, and the A35 boasted Exynos 1380, this marks another pivotal move towards a new supplier for these devices.
Again, the display features a sleek design, boasting a flat panel with a central punch hole for the front-facing camera and subtly asymmetrical bezels that add visual interest. Initially, the A36 seems almost indistinguishable from its precursor in appearance. Unfortunately, there is no fingerprint reader integrated into this design.
The Samsung Galaxy A56 has recently been leaked, featuring AMD RDNA graphics. Don’t get your hopes high; based on historical trends, it’s likely to be only a few months ahead of the A36 and A56 formal releases, given the A35 and A55 debuted in mid-March.
