Love it!
I love a Samsung, I've always had them. Find them easy to use, battery charge lasts a long time (i don't play games on it!) Love the feel of it and the way you can make the keyboard bigger! Takes really clear photos xx

Rubbish
Display decent size. Camera worka. No SD card makes it vastly inferior to earlier models. Gemini app will not ho away. Listens to everything yhats said and chips in with nonsense during meetings and diacussion. Evem when disabled and closed down. Cannot uninstall. Altogether disappointing. A 34 was better.

Solid phone
The screen is big and smooth, battery lasts all day, and it feels premium in hand. It’s not the fastest for heavy gaming, but for everyday use, socials, and videos it’s perfect.

Hi Nige,
SIM Free Samsung Galaxy A56 5G 256GB AI Phone - Graphite.
The A56 5G doesn't have built-in wireless charger support.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Thank you for your question, Fata. The Galaxy A56 is a Dual‑SIM device, which means you can use two nano‑SIM cards and also register an eSIM. Only two SIMs can be active at any one time, but you can easily switch between your SIM profiles in the SIM Manager settings whenever you need to. We hope this information is helpful.
