Galaxy A56 and A36 support 10-bit HDR videos recording as Samsung’s best flagship

Samsung has introduced a camera upgrade with its latest mid-range smartphones. The Galaxy A56 and Galaxy A36 support 10-bit HDR videos using their front and rear cameras. These are the first mid-rangers from the Korean giant that can record 10-bit HDR videos.
The Galaxy A36 and Galaxy A56 feature a 50MP main rear camera with OIS and a 12MP front camera. In addition, the Galaxy A56 and A36 camera supports 10-bit HDR videos recording at 4K resolution and a frame rate of 30fps, which is the best Samsung flagship. Both are Samsung’s first mid-range smartphones that can record 10-bit HDR videos.
This is a huge improvement over last year’s models, the Galaxy A35 and A55, which only recorded 8-bit video.
10-bit HDR videos have deeper colors and wider dynamic range. These videos can be shared on social media in Super HDR format (based on Google’s Ultra HDR) with high dynamic range.
In addition, the A56 has a 12MP ultrawide-angle macro lens (f/2.2) with autofocus and a 5MP macro camera F2.4. Also, the A36 has a 5MP macro camera and an 8MP ultrawide-angle snapper.
With these improvements, Samsung has added high-end features to its more affordable phones, making them a great choice for those who want premium features at a lower price. The Galaxy S25 series records 10-bit HDR video by default, and the Galaxy A36 and Galaxy A56 are the first mid-range smartphones to adopt this feature.

One UI 8 (Android 16) appears for Galaxy F34 and Galaxy M36 smartphones

Samsung Galaxy users won’t have to wait long for the One UI 8 update. The company has just started testing Android 16-based One UI 8 on some of its budget models, which is the first step towards rolling out the software update. Now, Samsung has also begun internal testing of One UI 8 on two of its mid-range Galaxy smartphones, the Galaxy F34 and Galaxy M36.
X user Mohammad Khatri spotted internal One UI 8 builds for the Galaxy F34 and Galaxy M36. This development brings these two mid-range phones on par with newer models like the Galaxy A56, Galaxy A36, Galaxy A55, Galaxy A35, Galaxy A54, and Galaxy A34.
For the Samsung Galaxy F34 and Galaxy M36, the One UI 8 builds carry version numbers E346BXXU7EYG7 and M366BXXU1BYG2, respectively. Note that it isn’t the latest build that the Korean tech giant will deliver as part of its official update rollout.
The One UI 8 beta program that started in May this year is still exclusive to the Galaxy S25 series. Don’t expect this beta program to reach non-flagship devices, as the firm has no plans for recent flagship phones either.
The firmware listing does not guarantee an early rollout of the update. It is the first step towards an OTA release on suitable models. You can expect a rollout roadmap from the company, which will be available in the Members app.
