Samsung’s Galaxy A57 and A37 Go On Sale in the US as India Sales Start Friday

Six-year updates anchor Samsung’s pitch for pricier mid-range phones.

Overview

  • The new Galaxy A57 and A37, which opened US sales on Thursday, are priced at $549 and $449 with a $30 Samsung credit that can cover a free Card Slot Case.
  • India sales begin Friday, April 10, with regular purchases opening online and in stores after preorders close at midnight and select bank cards offering an instant discount.
  • Samsung’s A57 pairs an Exynos 1680 chip with a 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, IP68 durability, a 5,000mAh battery with up to 45W charging, and One UI 8.5 with a six-year update pledge.
  • Early launch deals include Samsung accessory credits and case bundles, while Amazon is attaching a $50 gift card to A37 purchases, which helps offset this year’s higher list prices.
  • Reviews at launch say the A57 feels fast and smooth in daily use with better image processing, though sustained gaming can throttle and some preinstalled or suggested apps drew complaints.
