Samsung A56 5g
Really disappointed that the new Samsung A56 5g does not have an SD card slot. Unfortunately I found this out too late and now I'm stuck with it. I have all my pics stuck on an SD card on my old phone and the internal memory is not big enough on this phone. Just for the record - I do not want to use cloud base services

Hello OW,
RE: SIM Free Samsung Galaxy A56 5G 256GB AI Mobile Phone - Olive
The Samsung Galaxy A56 does not support wireless charging natively. However, it can support fast wireless charging when used with a compatible Samsung-certified charger. This means that while it lacks built-in wireless charging capabilities, you can still charge it wirelessly with the right accessories.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Thank you for this question, Tammy.
