With a slim and light build, plus a stylish glass-and-metal chassis, Samsung’s affordable new Galaxy A57 is undeniably a great-looking phone — and not just compared to other budget handsets, but even when it’s up against other flagships, including its Galaxy S26 siblings.
Combined with some notable hardware and software upgrades over its excellent A56 predecessor, that was enough for me to seriously consider adopting the Galaxy A57 as my main Android phone — and as TechRadar AU’s main phones editor, that’s something I honestly never thought I’d be saying about a budget handset.
