TL;DR
- The Galaxy A57 has surfaced on China’s TENAA database, giving us an early, official-looking preview of Samsung’s next mid-range phone.
- The A57 could be just 6.9mm thick, matching rumored Galaxy S26 dimensions.
- TENAA photos show the same vertical camera layout and Key Island buttons, now paired with what appears to be a metal frame.
Samsung’s mid-range phones usually play it safe, but the upcoming Galaxy A57 is looking to stir things up by trimming the fat. As everyone focuses on the Galaxy S26, a recent listing from China’s TENAA certification agency has given us an early look at the upcoming model.
If you’ve held a Galaxy A56, the new model should feel familiar but more premium. The TENAA images show the same vertical camera stack as before. The frame looks like it’s made of metal, which should make it more durable, and it uses the Key Island design, where the power and volume buttons are on a slightly raised part of the frame.
