Samsung's launching the Galaxy A56 5G into a viper pit of competition. There's the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro with its periscope camera, the Pixel 9a with Google's trademark Samsung-beating photo processing, and the gaming-tastic Poco X7 Pro, which costs much less but offers much more power on paper. Rewind the clock, and you can pick up some last-gen high-end options like the Nothing Phone (2), Pixel 8 Pro, and Honor 200 Pro for the same price.
So what does the Galaxy A56 bring to the table to fight off such fine alternatives? It has a seriously good-looking AMOLED display and mighty speakers for a midrange phone. There are three cameras around the back, a primary, ultra-wide, and macro trio, and the phone can capture 4K video from the front and rear cameras, a win for vloggers.
