8.1/10 by Shimul Sood | 13 Mar 2025

Should you buy the Samsung Galaxy A36 in 2025? Samsung has given it a fresh design, finally setting it apart from the flagship S series. Some may call it a downgrade, but honestly, it was time for the A-series to have its own identity. The camera module is oddly charming, and the sleeker form factor is a welcome upgrade. For daily use, its smooth, reliable, and fuss-free. But if gaming is your priority, the Realme GT 6 or OnePlus 12R would be better picks. The cameras deliver sharp shots in most conditions, though image processing can be hit or miss. Overall, its a solid choice for those who want longevity, a clean software experience, and a slim designif only Samsung had been a bit more generous with the pricing.
