Forget the New Z Fold Ultra, Samsung’s Galaxy A57 5G Just Hit a Record-Low Price

Save $125: Samsung recently announced a few new phones, but, as expected, the upgraded devices come with hefty price tags. You don’t have to spend big bucks to get a great smartphone anymore. The Samsung Galaxy A57 phone packs premium features into a more affordable package, and it’s currently available at its lowest price yet. Normally $550, it’s down to a new record-low price of $425 right now.

Samsung Galaxy A57

The Galaxy A57 has a slim design with a metal frame, an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance and a vibrant Super AMOLED Plus display. It even has slimmer bezels for a more immersive viewing experience.

The versatile triple-camera system captures everything from detailed landscapes to brighter low-light videos, thanks to Samsung’s Nightography technology. A large 5,000mAh battery keeps you powered throughout the day, while 45-watt Super Fast Charging helps you get back up and running quickly when it’s time to recharge.

It’s powered by a fast processor with 5G connectivity, so the phone easily handles streaming, gaming, video calls and more. Samsung also guarantees six generations of Android OS updates along with six years of security patches. The built-in Gemini AI features help answer questions, create content and complete tasks across apps, while up to 256GB of storage gives you plenty of room for that content.

Alternatives to consider

If you’re a member of the Google ecosystem, you might want to consider a Google Pixel 10 instead. We love this phone because of its useful features. First would be the 5x telephoto camera that takes gorgeous high-def pictures. It also has a long-lasting battery, so you don’t have to worry about the phone dying by midday. It also packs practical AI features, such as Magic Cue and Voice Translate. You can grab this unlocked Pixel phone for $799 at Amazon.
