Ace Your Studies and Unleash Your Creative Beast with the Galaxy A Series

In a world where smartphones double as lecture rooms, creative studios and canvases, the Samsung Galaxy A Series, featuring the Galaxy A26 5G, A36 5G, and A56 5G, is the ultimate study buddy and creative companion for young South Africans looking to do more, without spending more.

Whether you’re prepping for exams, creating content for school projects, or bringing your creative ideas to life on the go, the Galaxy A Series has your back with Awesome Intelligence that packs powerful AI features, and impressive all-day battery life.

Study Smarter, Not Harder with Super AMOLED Displays

Picture this; you’re reviewing notes late at night, scrolling through lecture slides, or watching an educational video on YouTube. Thanks to the large, high-resolution Super AMOLED displays with a buttery smooth 120Hz refresh rate, all three devices in the A Series line-up offer a crystal-clear, eye-friendly experience – perfect for long hours of reading, watching, or typing.

Whether you’re on the Galaxy A26 or the top-tier A56, text is razor-sharp, colours pop, and motion is fluid. This is a screen that adapts as quickly as your schedule does – from online lectures to note-taking apps and even visual learning platforms.

Take Thabo for example, a university student in Cape Town, who uses his Galaxy A36 5G to follow along with recorded lectures while jotting down quick notes in Samsung Notes. With split-screen multitasking, he can mix business with pleasure by playing a video while taking notes simultaneously without skipping a beat.

Let AI Power Your Productivity and Creativity

Gone are the days when AI was only for high-end devices. With the latest Galaxy A Series, Samsung is bringing Awesome Intelligence to the masses – making your smartphone smarter, faster, intuitive, and more helpful.

Need to revise a textbook diagram? Snap a photo and use Circle to Search to instantly get context and definitions. Took a photo of your notes with too much clutter? Use Object Eraser to clean up the image, keeping your study materials neat and shareable.

Plus, with 50MP main cameras across the line-up, your study scans, presentations, and project visuals look crisp and professional – ready for group work or posting to student forums.

Amahle for example, is a design student in Joburg who uses her Galaxy A56 5G to capture her sketches with high detail. Using the AI-enhanced editing tools, she removes background distractions and creates polished digital portfolios – all from her phone.

Stop Studying When You’re Done, Not Because Your Battery Gave In

A device is only as good as its battery life – and the massive 5000mAh batteries in the Galaxy A26, A36, and A56 make sure you stay connected from early morning lectures to late-night study sessions². That means less time on the charger and more time focusing on and doing what matters.

And when it’s time to download our learning apps, project files, and course videos? No problem. Each device comes with expandable storage^[1], so you never have to worry about running out of space in the middle of your semester.

Grant, a Matric student from Durban, uses his Galaxy A26 5G for online tutoring, listening to audiobooks, and taking daily practice tests. With battery life that lasts all day^[2], he never worries about losing power before his evening study group.

• Galaxy A26 5G – Best for students who want performance on a budget. Great for online classes, note-taking, and casual creativity.
• Galaxy A36 5G – Ideal for multitaskers who want a sharper display, more RAM, and elevated features without a big price jump.
