The Galaxy A36 might not be the most powerful mid-ranger on the market, but it checks plenty of boxes for a device in the ~$400 price range. First off, it comes with a high-end-looking design despite its asking price. But we all know looks aren’t everything, right?
Fortunately, this Android phone also nails it on the display front. You’re getting a vivid and crisp 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Even better, the panel gets quite bright for a mid-range phone. In our Galaxy A36 review, you can see display brightness measurements that’ll give you a better idea of just how impressive the screen is.
What about performance? Well, this model is no flagship killer for sure. Equipped with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset, it delivers a decent everyday experience. You might notice occasional micro stutter here and there, but overall, the device is on par with other $400 options.
Camera-wise, you get a 50MP main sensor, complemented by an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 5MP macro lens on the rear. In good lighting, you can expect very decent photos, with vivid colors and adequate detail.
The software support is another standout. Although this isn’t a high-end model, Samsung has committed to six years of continuous software and security support. That’s indeed impressive for a phone you can now grab for less than $300!
As you can see, the Galaxy A36 checks plenty of boxes to make a good investment. And at $100 off its original price, it’s an even easier choice. Don’t miss out!
