Samsung just announced its new budget phones that are more affordable than Apple’s new iPhone 16e, and they pack more cameras, too.

Samsung is updating its midrange phone lineup, with the Galaxy A36 and Galaxy A26 arriving in March ahead of a Galaxy A56 U.S. launch later this year. Here's what to expect from the new phones.

Samsung says the A36 and A56 have a larger vapor chamber cooling system for better heat dissipation during intense processing activities like gaming, and that this system is nearly the same size as last year's Galaxy S24+. They also support 45-watt fast charging, which should get you up to 70 percent in 30 minutes.
