Nationwide release of Samsung's latest Galaxy A56 5G model now available in U.S. retailers
Samsung's Galaxy A56 5G Arrives in the U.S. Market
The long-awaited Samsung Galaxy A56 5G has finally made its debut in the U.S. market. This device, part of Samsung's 2025 wave of Galaxy A series devices, was initially launched in March alongside the A36 and A26, but it has taken some time to officially arrive stateside.
The Galaxy A56 5G comes with a 6.7-inch FHD Plus Super AMOLED display, a triple camera array consisting of a 50MP primary lens, a 12MP ultrawide, and a 5MP macro lens, and a 12MP selfie camera. It is available in three stylish colour options: Awesome Lightgray, Awesome Graphite, and an exclusive Awesome Olive, available exclusively on Amazon.
One of the standout features of the Galaxy A56 5G is its Awesome Intelligence suite. This collection of AI-powered tools is designed to enhance creativity, searching, and photo quality.
With Circle to Search with Google, users can instantly get search results by circling, highlighting, or tapping any object or text onscreen. This feature makes it easy to find information about items seen on social media or elsewhere without needing tags or captions.
Best Face, unique to the Galaxy A56 5G within the series, lets users select the best facial expressions from multiple frames and combine them into one perfect group photo, ensuring everyone looks their best.
Object Eraser is another tool that enables users to remove unwanted elements or distractions from photos seamlessly, resulting in cleaner, more polished images. Users can also create personalized photo filters or apply retro film effects to photos and videos, enhancing the creative possibilities.
The Galaxy A56 5G's camera and video capabilities are further enhanced by a 50 MP upgraded main lens that intelligently identifies elements such as sky, skin, face, hair, and grass to automatically enhance image quality. The 12 MP front camera has also been improved for sharp, vibrant selfies, and Super HDR is available for high-resolution selfie videos.
The phone also supports advanced Nightography for clearer low-light shots and is powered by an upgraded Octa-core processor for smooth multitasking and gaming.
Samsung's Knox Vault and Knox Matrix are designed to help safeguard privacy on the Galaxy A56 5G. The device will receive six generations of Android OS updates and six years of security updates.
The Galaxy A56 5G is now available nationwide in the U.S. at retailers including Best Buy, Walmart, Samsung, Amazon, Verizon, and AT&T. It comes with two storage variations: 128GB and 256GB, priced at $499. The Galaxy A36 and A26, priced at $399 and $299, respectively, were also part of the March launch but are available at different retailers.
