What do critics say about the Samsung Galaxy A57?
A competent all-rounder with a pleasant screen and clean software, but it lacks wow factor, takes weak photos and is not a performance phone.
A solid, premium-feeling budget Samsung with strong battery and software, but weak performance, a pointless macro lens and a price rise with little to show for it.
A sleeker, more premium mid-ranger, but improvements are small and the price rise is hard to justify against rivals.
