Awesome
Intelligence for Advanced Search and Creativity
Awesome
Intelligence is the first comprehensive mobile AI exclusively available on
Galaxy A56 5G Galaxy and A36 5G and brings users powerful, fun and easy-to-use
AI tools. Powered by One UI 7.0, the new Awesome Intelligence features bring
amazing search and visual experiences to Galaxy A series users.
A fan-favorite on Galaxy A series devices last year, Google’s enhanced Circle to Search[1],
makes it easier than ever to search and discover from the phone’s screen. With
the latest upgrades, users can now get even more done on their phone. Circle to
Search will quickly recognize phone numbers, email addresses and URLs on the
screen so users can take action with a single tap.
With the recent enhancements to Circle to Search, users can also
instantly search the songs they hear without switching apps. Whether it’s a
song playing on social media from their phone or music that’s playing from
speakers near them, just long press the navigation bar to activate Circle to
Search, then tap the music button to effortlessly identify the song name and
artist
The Galaxy
A series also takes the camera experience to a new level with creator-focused
tools, starting with a powerful triple-camera system featuring a 50MP main lens
on all devices and 10-bit HDR front lens recording on Galaxy A56 5G and Galaxy
A36 5G for bright and crisp selfies. Galaxy A56 5G features leading camera
technology with a 12MP ultra-wide lens, while the entire Galaxy A series
empowers creativity in new and exciting ways through intelligent visual
editing.
Exclusively
available on Galaxy A56 5G, Best
Face[2] makes
it easier than ever to capture the perfect group shot by selecting and
combining the best expressions or features for up to five people from a motion
photo. Whether someone blinked or looked away, Best Face ensures everyone looks
their best in a single, seamless shot. The Galaxy A56 5G also brings enhancements to Nightography, with Low Noise Mode
making its way to the 12MP selfie camera and additional wide camera support to
capture stunning content in low-light settings.
Galaxy A 56 5G, and Galaxy A36 5G all bring fine-refined Object Eraser[3], allowing users to remove unwanted distractions from photos.
Whether it's an unexpected passerby or a distracting shadow, users can manually
or automatically select objects to erase, achieving a cleaner, more polished
final image with just a few taps. Moreover, Filters[4]
enables custom filter creation
by extracting colors and styles from existing photos for users to apply for a
unique and personalized effect depending on mood and taste. With these
intelligent tools, users can refine and enhance their photos effortlessly,
bringing a new level of creativity to every shot.
Built To Last With Upgraded Displays and
Software Longevity
Now with up to six generations of Android
OS and One UI upgrades and six years of security updates, the Galaxy A series reinforces its
software longevity even more. These updates add additional support
toward optimizing the device’s lifecycle, ensuring users can enjoy a smooth and
reliable experience for years to come.
The Galaxy A56 5G and Galaxy A36 5G
also introduce a larger display created for a high-quality, immersive viewing
experience. Both devices feature a 6.7-inch[5] FHD+ Super AMOLED display
with brightness levels reaching up to 1200 nits[6], allowing for a more vibrant
and immersive entertainment experience. New stereo speakers further enhance the
experience with rich, balanced sound.
With a 5,000mAh battery included
throughout the entire lineup, the new Galaxy A series is designed to keep up
with users' daily routines. Galaxy A56 5G and Galaxy A36 5G support 45W
charging power and Super Fast Charge 2.0 technology, delivering even faster
charging for extended use. Both models also deliver enhanced performance, as
Galaxy A56 5G is powered by the Exynos 1580 chipset and Galaxy A36 5G features
the Snapdragon® 6 Gen 3 Mobile Platform. A larger vapor chamber in both devices
helps sustain performance, ensuring smooth gameplay, video playback, and effortless
multitasking.
Beyond performance, the new Galaxy A series is built to withstand life’s
unpredictable moments. Galaxy A56 5G and Galaxy A365G feature an IP67 dust and
water resistance rating for strong protection against the elements[7].
Additionally, an advanced Corning® Glass cover material adds a layer of
durability against scratches and cracks[8].
