As you may have noticed, the 2025 Galaxy A series showed up at the Samsung e-shop in several markets over the past few days. However, today, March 28, is officially the global launch day for the latest A-series trio. The Galaxy A26, Galaxy A36, and Galaxy A56 are now available worldwide, with some caveats.
The one exception we can confirm is the USA. Earlier this month, Samsung revealed that the Galaxy A56 will be released in the USA “later this year,” and it is not yet available at the time of writing. On the other hand, the A26 and A36 went on sale stateside two days ago.
So, with a few possible exceptions here and there, all three A-series phones are officially live globally. If you want to buy any of these devices, the best way to verify their availability in your region today is to hit up your local Samsung e-shop. Special offers will also vary by market.

Color and memory options may vary by market, but for the most part, the Galaxy A26, A36, and A56 should be available in the following configurations.
All three Galaxy A phones come with what Samsung calls Awesome Intelligence. This is a blanket term describing a set of clever features that will enhance your user experience.
You can read more about Awesome Intelligence vs Galaxy AI here, but keep in mind that the feature list differs slightly from one Galaxy A phone to the other. The Galaxy A56 has the most Awesome Intelligence features.
The Galaxy A26, Galaxy A36, and Galaxy A56 share the same design language, which revolves around a Key Island frame and a new oblong camera housing.
Pricing will vary by region, but in most of Europe, the Galaxy A26, A36, and A56 start at €299, €379, and €479. In the UK, the phones cost £299, £399, and £499. And in the USA, the Galaxy A26 and A36 went on sale for $299 and $399.
