If you want a Samsung Galaxy phone but don’t need all the bells and whistles, say for an elderly person or teen, the new Samsung Galaxy A36 might be it.
The latest in the affordable A-series line, the Galaxy A36 integrates AI features you’d normally only expect in the higher-end phones and comes with Samsung One UI 7 overtop the Android OS, a first for an A-series phone. Some of the features you can use include Google’s Circle to Search and Song Search from music nearby, playing on the device, or from your own humming or singing.
Equipped with a 50MP main camera, you also get a 10-bit HDR front lens for snapping selfies. AI-powered camera features include Object Eraser for removing unwanted people or objects from photos and Filters.
The Samsung Galaxy A36 has a 5,000mAh battery and supports 45W charging and Super Fast Charge 2.0 technology. It comes with a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor, 128GB storage, a larger vapor chamber for keeping it cool while gaming and multitasking, and 5G network connectivity.
Boasting IP67 dust and water resistance, it comes with a Corning Glass cover for protection against scratches and cracks, and Samsung Knox Vault for an extra layer of security for your contents. This includes features like Auto Blocker, Theft Detection, and additional security settings.
The Samsung Galaxy A36 5G sells in Canada for $530.
