Product Description
IP68, Gorilla Glass Victus+ and six years of upgrades, without flagship money
The A57 is the point in Samsung's range where the durability stops being a compromise. It is IP68 rated - properly submersible, not splash-resistant - with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ on the front, a 50 MP main camera with optical image stabilisation, and Knox Vault security certified to EAL5+. Add a 120 Hz Super AMOLED Plus display and a commitment to six years of software, and the case for spending flagship money gets thin.
IP68 water and dust resistance
Rated IP68 - dust tight and submersible to 1.5 metres for 30 minutes. That covers a dropped phone in a sink, a downpour, or a wet day on a building site.
Gorilla Glass Victus+
Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ on the front, which is the same class of protection Samsung fits to phones costing considerably more.
6.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus at 120Hz
A 120 Hz FHD+ Super AMOLED Plus panel with HDR10+, reaching 1,900 nits at peak - fluid to use and readable in direct sunlight.
50MP camera with OIS
The 50 MP f/1.8 main sensor has optical image stabilisation, which is the single feature that most improves low-light photos and handheld video - and the one usually cut at this price.
12MP ultra-wide and 5MP macro
A 12 MP ultra-wide for landscapes and group shots and a 5 MP macro for close detail, with up to 10x digital zoom on the main camera.
Nightography and Super HDR
Samsung's Nightography processing plus Super HDR and AI segmentation pull detail out of scenes that would otherwise be flat or blown out.
4K video at 30fps
Records UHD 4K at 30 fps with 240 fps slow motion at HD, and plays back 4K at up to 60 fps.
5,000mAh with Super Fast Charging 2.0
A 5,000 mAh battery rated for at least 1,200 charge cycles, reaching around 60% in half an hour, and good for up to 29 hours of video playback.
Exynos 1680 with a 19.6 TOPS NPU
A 4 nm Exynos 1680 with Xclipse 550 graphics and a neural processing unit rated at 19.6 TOPS, which is what runs the on-device Galaxy AI features.
Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 6.0
Wi-Fi 6E adds the 6 GHz band for uncongested throughput, alongside Bluetooth 6.0 - both ahead of what most phones at this price offer.
Knox Vault security
Samsung Knox Vault, certified to EAL5+, keeps credentials and biometric data in isolated hardware rather than in general memory.
Six years of updates
Up to six major OS upgrades and six years of security updates, valid until 31 March 2032 - a genuinely long life for a mid-range handset.
8GB RAM and 256GB storage
Eight gigabytes of LPDDR5X memory and 256 GB of storage, of which around 232 GB is available to you.
