It's now NPR 5000 more expensive than before!
Samsung Galaxy A56 has been a popular midrange option, known for its large 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, smooth One UI software, and capable cameras. But it has also received a price hike like its fellow Samsung siblings. This article covers the phone’s full specifications and its latest price in the Nepali market.
Samsung Galaxy A36 Overview
Design and Display
The Galaxy A36 is slimmer and lighter than its predecessor, measuring 6.7 inches. It features an FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1,200 nits peak brightness. The device is available in Lime, Lavender, Black, and White and is IP67-rated for dust- and water-resistance.
Performance and Software
The phone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor. It offers up to 8GB RAM and up to 256GB storage (non-expandable). For heat management, the Galaxy A36 features a 15% larger vapor chamber. For context, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 is Qualcomm's latest 4nm chip. It is slightly better than the Exynos 1380, which was featured in its predecessor.
The Samsung A36, like its counterpart, runs Android 15 with One UI 7 skin. And will continue to receive updates for the next 6 years. One UI 7 has been largely modified to create a more cleaner layout. It also includes AI-driven capabilities such as Object Recognition, Circle to Search, Auto Trim, and Best Face.

Cameras
The rear camera setup includes a 50MP main sensor, an 8MP wide-angle lens, and a 5MP macro sensor. On the front, it has a 12MP camera that supports HDR video. In addition, the Galaxy A36 is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery that supports 45W fast charging. Meanwhile, this phone also retains the under-display optical fingerprint from the A35.
Should you buy the Samsung Galaxy A36 in Nepal?
Although the Samsung Galaxy A36 has recently received a price hike in Nepal, this phone still stands out with some goodies. First up, it's got a Samsung-made AMOLED panel, which is one of the best in the segment with vibrant and crisp color outputs, perfect for movie sessions. Likewise, it's got capable cameras, which performed well in our tests. And I found the One UI software to be smooth, with 1-day battery life, which is also equally commendable.
Just that the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 is not the absolute performer for the price range. I think alternatives like the Infininx GT 30 Pro with Dimensity 8350 or OnePlus Nord CE 5 could be worth considering for a smooth gaming experince. They are faster and handle demanding tasks better, and you may find them more enjoyable for multitasking and heavy use. But if you are okay with 60fps gaming in PUBG, the Galaxy A36 can handle it well.
Overall, the Galaxy A36 is a well-rounded midrange option for everyday use, offering solid value if high-end performance isn’t your top priority.
