Samsung leak gives us an early glimpse of the upcoming Galaxy A57 and A37

Retail listings for the Galaxy A57 and A37 surface online, leaving Samsung with very little left to reveal at launch.

You know a launch is close when the retail listings start showing up before the press release does.

Evan Blass posted screenshots on X from what appear to be retail listings for the Galaxy A57 and A37 — and between the renders, specs, and pricing, there’s not a whole lot left for Samsung to announce.

Two phones, one familiar design

The two phones are cut from the same cloth, at least on paper. Both are tipped to get a 6.7-inch flat Super AMOLED screen running at 120Hz, a centred punch-hole, and a triple camera setup with a 50MP main shooter up front.

The ultrawide is where you’ll feel the price difference — 12MP on the A57, 8MP on the A37. Not a dealbreaker, but if you shoot wide regularly, you’ll know.

Battery life shouldn’t be a concern on either — a 5,000mAh cell with 45W charging is what the leaks point to, and that’s a solid setup at this price. The Exynos 1680 goes to the A57; the A37 gets the 1480. Not a gap that’ll wreck your day, but it’s there.

Where the differences start to show

The A57 also quietly picks up Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 6.0 while the A37 stops at Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 — a small thing that’ll only bother you once it starts bothering you. Both are said to launch running Android 16 with One UI 8.5.

Take the pricing with a pinch of salt for now — Samsung’s said nothing official. The retail listing shows South African contract rates of R429 (~$23) a month over 48 months for the A57 and R399 (~$22) a month over 36 months for the A37, with European leaks pointing to €539 and €439 outright.

Same story on the launch date — end of March 2026 keeps coming up, but Samsung hasn’t put a date on anything yet.

The $1,500 flagship might be closer than you think

Flip phones already broke the $1,500 mark this year, and slab flagships aren't far behind.

iPhone 17 Pro and Google Pixel 10 Pro.

In July, a Google executive broke the silence on the ongoing memory crisis, highlighting a more than fourfold increase in RAM prices between 2025 and 2026, and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. The prices have gone up from $2.80 in 2025 to roughly $12 in 2026, as mentioned in the same report. Run the math for a 16GB memory package, and the cost to the company has apparently gone up from $45 to $192.

That's not a rounding error; it's the floor moving under the entire industry's feet. Google is not alone in speaking about the ongoing memory crisis. We've also seen Nothing's CEO speak about it, and other brands like Motorola, OnePlus, and Xiaomi make price adjustments across their lineup.

I’ve used the Pixel 10 Pro a year. I hope Google fixes these nagging issues on the Pixel 11 Pro

Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

I’ve been using the Google Pixel 10 Pro for almost a year now, which means I’ve had plenty of time to figure out what I love about it and, more importantly, what still gets on my nerves. And with the Pixel 11 Pro launching on August 12, just three days from now, my wishlist for Google has gotten pretty long. There’s a lot the Pixel already gets right. The software is still one of my favorite Android experiences, performance is generally solid, and Google’s Gemini features have become genuinely useful in ways I didn’t expect. Those are all big reasons I’ve stuck with Pixel phones for as long as I have.

But spend enough time with any phone and the little annoyances stop feeling so little. Over the past year, I’ve run into a handful of recurring Pixel problems that I really don’t want to carry over to another generation. Some have frustrated me for months, while others have made me question whether I can completely rely on my Pixel when I need it most. So, with the Pixel 11 Pro almost here, I have a few things I desperately want Google to get right this time.

Apple is testing Chinese DRAM even after CXMT refused to cut prices

Apple may be testing CXMT memory for iPhones and MacBooks

iPhone 17 Pro Max

Apple’s search for more memory supply has taken another step forward. The company is now testing DRAM from Chinese manufacturer CXMT across several products, including iPhones and MacBooks, according to The Wall Street Journal. Apple has also held early talks with CXMT about supplying memory for some devices sold in China and is seeking support from the US government before moving ahead.

The timing is particularly interesting. Just recently, we learned that a shortage of DRAM could already be holding up production of the A20 Pro chip expected inside the iPhone 18 Pro. TSMC is said to have around $1 billion worth of finished chips waiting for memory before packaging can continue.
