Alleged Galaxy A56 5G received TENAA certificate, with Note 10-like camera design revealed
Samsung is preparing to launch Galaxy A series devices in the coming month. Earlier this week, Galaxy A56 5G and Galaxy A36 5G appeared indirectly on Samsung France’s website. Now the Galaxy A56 5G phone was also listed on TENAA China, surprise: it seems the camera island’s design is inspired by the Galaxy Note 10, but its other information remained undisclosed.
A tipster Max Jambor spotted the Galaxy A56 5G on the telecommunication Equipment’s Network Access Managements (TENAA) in China with the updated camera design.
This listing shows the front and back look of the Galaxy A56 5G phone, and the back design is simply stunning: The camera island design seems to be inspired by the Galaxy Note 10, but it feels more refined. At the back, the updated camera design includes a pill-shaped module with three cameras and a flashlight, which is separate from the camera module.
Now talking about the front side of the Galaxy A56 phone, the selfie camera is placed in the middle above the screen which is similar to most Galaxy smartphones. The display is flat and bezels around the display seem to be the same size as that of the Galaxy A55, which gives a simple look.
Apart from the updated camera design, the tipster also claims that the phone could come with even more powerful cameras. The phone will likely have a triple-camera system at the back with a 50MP primary lens, 12MP ultrawide sense, and a 5MP macro camera. It may have an upgraded 12MP selfie camera for clean and clear facial shots.
Another big change will be in the software, the Galaxy A56 might come with Android 15-based One UI 7.1. The other phone has also been listed on Geekbench, which indicates that the Galaxy A56 has an Exynos 1580 processor with an octa-core CPU.

After the Galaxy S24 series, Samsung has today resumed the rollout of One UI 7 based on the Android 15 update for the Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE. It is worth noting that the Korean tech giant had halted the rollout a few days ago due to a serious bug discovered in the initial update, so it is now rolling out a new firmware that will fix this issue.
Samsung has started rolling out the new One UI 7 update for the Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6, and Fold 6 SE. Initially available in South Korea, the new One UI 7 build will go live in more markets soon. This build is a more refined build than the initial build and includes fixes for system improvements.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6, and Fold 6 SE users can recognize it by the build number ending with BYD9.
Your Galaxy foldable device might have also received the new build. But you can check for the update manually in Settings > Software update. Click on Download and install so that your phone can receive the new OTA.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 has now appeared on Geekbench, revealing that the company is carrying out pre-launch tests and preparations for its new device. The latest listing also solves the chipset mystery that has been in rumours for a long time.
According to the Geekbench 6.4 listing, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 US variant with model number SM-F966U achieved 3022 points on single-core and 9307 points on multi-core tests.
The US variant of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has appeared on Geekbench with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. Also, the phone is expected to run on Android 16-based One UI 8 operating system
Being a flagship folding handset, all these things sound quite good. Nevertheless, the actual performance will only be known once the device is officially launched in the consumer market. Inputs reveal that the chipset is clocked at 3.53 GHz base frequency.
Apart from this, the Korean tech giant can launch the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 around July this year. Also, an affordable flip model can also be introduced along with both the devices.
