Samsung just dropped its newest mid-range contender in India—the Galaxy F56 5G—and it’s looking sharper, faster, and more durable than before. As the successor to the Galaxy F55 5G, this phone brings some notable upgrades, especially in software support and design. Let’s break down what makes this the slimmest and smartest F-series phone yet.
Pricing
The Galaxy F56 5G is available in two variants:
Variant | Price | Launch Offer Price |
---|---|---|
8GB + 128GB | ₹27,999 | ₹25,999 (with ₹2,000 bank offer) |
8GB + 256GB | ₹30,999 | ₹28,999 (with ₹2,000 bank offer) |
You can grab it in stylish Green and Violet color options. Considering the specs and extended software promise, this pricing is quite competitive.
Display
Samsung hasn’t held back on the visuals. The Galaxy F56 5G features a large 6.72-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and 1,200 nits peak brightness. Whether you’re scrolling through Instagram or watching Netflix, this screen delivers vibrant colors and smooth motion.
Design
Here’s where it gets interesting. The Galaxy F56 5G is only 7.2mm thin, making it the slimmest phone in the Galaxy F-series to date. With Gorilla Glass Victus+ protecting both front and back, it not only looks sleek but is also built to withstand daily knocks. The flat-edge frame and pill-shaped rear camera module give it a modern, premium feel.
Performance
Powering the F56 5G is the Exynos 1480 chipset, Samsung’s own in-house processor. Paired with 8GB of RAM, the phone promises smooth multitasking and gaming. You can choose between 128GB or 256GB storage, and with a vapor cooling chamber, it stays cool during heavy use.
Battery
The phone draws energy from a solid 5,000mAh battery that supports 45W fast charging. This means you’ll be powered for a full day—and even if you’re running low, a quick top-up will get you back on track in no time.
Software
This is where Samsung is really flexing. The Galaxy F56 5G comes with One UI 7 out of the box and promises an industry-leading six years of software updates—including OS upgrades and security patches. That’s more than what many flagship phones offer, making this a future-proof choice for long-term users.
Camera
The F56 5G features a 50MP main rear camera with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), ensuring clearer shots even in motion. While the 12MP selfie camera is a downgrade from the 50MP shooter on the F55, it’s still decent for most users. You also get AI-powered editing tools like Object Eraser, giving you more creative control over your photos.
Upgrades
Here’s a quick comparison of what’s new:
Feature | Galaxy F55 5G | Galaxy F56 5G |
---|---|---|
Thickness | 7.8mm | 7.2mm |
Brightness | 1,000 nits | 1,200 nits |
Processor | Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 | Exynos 1480 |
Front Camera | 50MP | 12MP |
Software Support | 5 years | 6 years |
OS at Launch | One UI 6 | One UI 7 |
Overall, the Galaxy F56 5G brings a refined design, smoother performance, and extended longevity. If you’re looking for a sleek, reliable 5G phone with long-term software support, this one’s worth considering.
