TL;DR Specifications of the Galaxy A57 have leaked through a telecom certification in China.

As per the leak, the Galaxy A57 could be slimmer than the A56, measuring only 6.9mm.

The phone is also expected to feature Samsung’s Exynos 1680, a 50MP Sony primary camera, 45W charging, and a 5,000mAh battery.

Samsung is on course to launch its flagship Galaxy S26 series later in February. Even before that mega event, though, Samsung could refresh its mid-range A series with noteworthy improvements to the cameras and the overall design. While the Galaxy A07 5G was unveiled last week, the A37 and A57 now appear ready for an official highlight in the coming weeks.

Out of the two, the Galaxy A57 is already breaking cover with a fresh listing on TENAA, China’s telecom certification body. While some of the Galaxy A57’s specifications had already leaked, the listing also divulges a breadth of additional information, including its dimensions, display, battery, and more.

TENAA

The most compelling change that the Galaxy A57 brings over the Galaxy A56 is the sleeker design. According to the TENAA certificate (via Android Treasure), the A57 measures 161.5 × 76.8 × 6.9 mm, indicating a reduced slimness from 7.4mm. In comparison, the smaller Galaxy S26 is rumored to be 6.96mm thick, making the A57 slimmer despite a larger overall footprint. The phone is also about 16 grams (0.56 ounces) lighter than the previous generation.
