New research highlights just how common these moments are for UK consumers, while also revealing a shift in what “value” really means. Increasingly, it’s no longer defined by price alone, but by how well a smartphone performs over time, from reliability and longevity to consistent, high-quality experiences.

The study found that:

• 20% of Brits feel stressed when their phone battery runs low
• 66% feel stressed when they lose internet connection
• The average person experiences 2 tech frustrations per day

Against this backdrop, the Galaxy A57 5G has been designed to bring greater reassurance to everyday use, combining dependable performance with features that matter most to users.

Designed Around What Matters Most

Today’s smartphone users expect more from their devices, not just in moments of excitement, but across the entire day.

Whether it’s staying connected, capturing memories, or simply getting through a busy schedule without interruption, the Galaxy A57 5G focuses on delivering a balanced, dependable experience. Enhancements across performance, camera and display are paired with long-term software support, helping the device stay useful and secure over time.

Helping Ease Battery Anxiety

Battery life remains one of the most consistent sources of frustration for smartphone users. Frequent charging and constant battery checks can interrupt even the simplest daily routines.

With power efficiency designed for real-world usage and a battery that can last up to two days on a single charge^[1], the Galaxy A57 5G is built to support users throughout their day, offering greater confidence when it matters most.

Capturing Moments with Clarity, Day or Night

Photography continues to be one of the most valued smartphone features, with users expecting reliable results across a variety of conditions.

The Galaxy A57 5G brings enhanced camera capabilities designed to deliver clear, detailed images, whether in bright daylight or low-light environments. Intelligent optimisation works in the background to help users get the most out of every shot, making it easier to capture moments as they happen.

Smarter Everyday Experiences with AI

As AI becomes a more integral part of mobile experiences, users are looking for ways it can make everyday tasks simpler and more intuitive.

With Awesome Intelligence^[2], the Galaxy A57 5G introduces a range of AI-powered tools designed to enhance photos, streamline productivity and support day-to-day activities, bringing practical innovation into everyday use.

Built to Last, Inside and Out

For many users, true value lies in how long a smartphone continues to perform.

The Galaxy A57 5G has been developed with longevity in mind, featuring durable construction alongside six generations of OS upgrades and six years of security updates^[3]. This long-term support helps ensure the device remains reliable, secure and up to date well into the future.

A Shift in What Value Means

The research also highlights a broader change in consumer priorities:

• 36% of users say functionality matters more than price

Annika Bizon, Mobile Experience VP of Product and Marketing at Samsung UK & Ireland, said: “Value today is about more than what you pay upfront – it’s about how your phone supports you every day. From staying connected when it matters most to knowing your device will last, these are the things that make a real difference to people’s lives.”

Supporting Everyday Experiences in 2026

As expectations continue to evolve, smartphones are playing an even greater role in helping people stay connected, productive and entertained.

The Galaxy A57 5G has been designed with this in mind, focusing on reliability, thoughtful innovation and long-term usability to support the moments that matter, every day.

The Samsung Jet cordless stick vacuum cleaner is powerful, lightweight, and designed to deliver a hygienic solution for your home, every time. Furthermore, the Samsung Jet’s revolutionary Clean Station makes emptying your vacuum’s dustbin simple, clean and hassle-free.

Armed with industry-leading suction power and a 5 Layered HEPA filtration system^[1], the Samsung Jet not only keeps your home spotless, but also helps to keep the air dust-free. Check out the video below for a hands-on look at this revolutionary end-to-end home cleaning solution, then read on for an in-depth introduction to each of its leading features.

Powerful Filtration

Cleaning one’s home is no effortless task, so it is important to have a vacuum that will comprehensively get the job done while keeping fine household dust out of the air of your home.

The Samsung Jet’s 5 Layered HEPA filtration system minimizes the dust that escapes back out through the exhaust during cleaning. Firstly, the vacuum’s main cyclone separates large dust particles, while the metal mesh grille filter separates smaller particles. The Jet Cyclone and micro filter then catch even finer dust particles, and finally, an ultrafine dust filter traps 99.999 percent of micro dust^[2] including 0.3~10µm sized particles and allergens that are prone to escaping from traditional vacuums.

Hygienic Dustbin Disposal

Ready to clean out the dustbin? Users can easily remove the device’s dustbin and wash it out after emptying to remove any lingering dust. The internal rotating drum located by the head of the vacuum cleaner is also detachable, so with just one click, you can fully clean your vacuum for its next run.

200W Suction Power

There’s nothing quite as frustrating as a cordless vacuum cleaner that loses its suction power when the battery starts to run low. With the Samsung Jet, you can vacuum worry-free thanks to its Digital Inverter Motor that consistently maintains a high level of energy efficiency to sustain the vacuum’s suction power of up to 200W^[3]. Even towards the end of a charge, the Jet Cyclone’s system features nine separate cyclones to minimize the loss of suction.

Long-Lasting Performance

The Samsung Jet’s high-capacity battery lasts 60 minutes^[4] on a full charge and is replaceable, meaning that with a spare battery^[5], users can take advantage of up to 120 minutes of power for a longer clean.

When it comes to charging, the vacuum’s 2-in-1 Charging Station allows you to choose between two options – wall-mounted or free-standing – so you can place it anywhere you like around the house.

No More Fine Dust: the Revolutionary Clean Station

Tired of breathing in a face full of dust when emptying your vacuum’s dustbin? Simply place the dustbin on top of Samsung Jet’s Clean Station for a sterile, dust-free finish.

The Samsung Jet’s Clean Station features an Anti-Dust Emitting Structure that prevents ultrafine dust from being released back into the air while emptying the dustbin.

The Samsung Jet’s Clean Station even features Air Pulse Technology, which regularly oscillates air around the vacuum’s bin to remove trapped dust. These stubborn particles are then collected in a 2-liter dust bag inside the device, which only need be replaced once every few months.

Intuitive Design, At A Glance

The Samsung Jet’s powerful cleaning solutions all come in a lightweight body weighing in at just 1.66 kilograms^[6], ensuring a strain-free cleaning experience.

Want to check how much battery is left, whether there’s a blockage or just how the vacuum’s brush is faring? One glance at the Samsung Jet’s intuitive, integrated digital display will give you all the information you need.

7 Tools for Any Surface

For homes with multiple surface types, the Samsung Jet comes with three motorized brush options capable of accessing each and every tricky shelf or crevice, all detachable and easily replaced on the device with a simple click.

The basic Turbo Action brush is perfect for carpets, but can be used on any floor surface, with a 180-degree swivel head for easy maneuverability. The Soft Action brush is optimal for harder floor types and for those hard-to-reach areas thanks to its woven anti-static silver threads, while the Spinning Sweeper brush features dual spinning wet pads for mopping.

Moving from floors to furniture? Use the Combination Tool when covering large areas, the Flex Tool for hard-to-reach areas, the Long Reach Crevice Tool for small spaces, and the Mini Motorized Tool to pick up dust and pet fur from sofas and beds.
