What do critics say about the Samsung Galaxy A57?

Expert Reviews80

A light, well-built phone with great battery life and support, held back by outdated cameras.

Hands-on review · 2026 · Read
TechRadar80

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.

Hands-on review · 2026 · Read
Tom's Guide80

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.

Hands-on review · 2026 · Read
Tech Advisor70

A sleeker, more premium mid-ranger, but improvements are small and the price rise is hard to justify against rivals.
