When it comes to smartphones, Samsung has always been a popular name. After the launch of the Galaxy A36 in Pakistan, Samsung has introduced another phone in the Galaxy A series, the Samsung Galaxy A56. But is it worth buying? To answer this question, I have reviewed this phone and compared it with its competitors. So, let’s see the Samsung Galaxy A56 price in Pakistan, its design, display, camera, and other features.

Design
Before we talk about its other features, let’s explore what it has to offer us in terms of its design. It has a glass front and back with a simple yet very attractive look, with a 7.4mm thickness. However, considering the design of its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy A55, it has a different appearance. The rear cameras of the Galaxy A56 are enclosed in the vertical black camera module, giving a unified appearance.

Camera Features
I am not sure if we are going to enjoy the camera features of the Samsung Galaxy A56 as they are similar to the Galaxy A55. It has triple rear cameras that are 50MP, 12MP and 5MP. Furthermore, it has an upgraded 12MP selfie camera on the front. The camera looks as familiar as the camera specs of the Galaxy A26.

Performance
Here comes the most important feature – the performance of the Samsung Galaxy A56. It works on the Exynos 1580 (4 nm) chipset, which is an upgrade from the last model, the Galaxy A55. Furthermore, the Samsung Galaxy A56 in Pakistan has 8GB and 256GB memory, perfect for your daily use.
Considering the performance, I believe Xiaomi 14T might offer you a better performance with the MediaTek Dimensity 8300 Ultra (4 nm) chipset. Yes! You might find this smartphone at a higher price (Rs. 175,000) than the Galaxy A56, but the chipset and performance make it worth the price.
