Samsung has hinted at the launch of the Galaxy A56 and Galaxy A36 in a video teaser on X. The monikers of the purported handsets were not confirmed but the repetitive "Awesome" tagline suggests that the expected phones are the Galaxy A55 and Galaxy A35 successors.

The teaser claims that the upcoming Samsung smartphones will come with support for six years of OS updates. The Samsung Galaxy A56 and Galaxy A36 are expected to ship with Android 15-based One UI 7. The video further teases the middle frame of the upcoming handsets where we see the edge of the Key Island that holds the power button and the volume rocker. We can expect to learn more about the handsets soon.
