Samsung Galaxy A37 5G

The Samsung Galaxy A37 5G is a premium mid-range smartphone that combines a large 120Hz Super AMOLED display, 5G connectivity, a 4nm Exynos processor, a triple rear-camera system, IP68 water and dust resistance, stereo speakers, and a large 5,000mAh battery.

Announced on March 25, 2026, the Galaxy A37 5G was released on April 9, 2026. It features a slim glass body with a plastic frame, Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection, up to 12GB of RAM, up to 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and support for long-term Android software updates.

Design and Build

The Samsung Galaxy A37 5G measures 162.9 × 78.2 × 7.4 mm and weighs 196 grams.

The phone has a glass front and glass back, both protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+, combined with a plastic frame. Its relatively slim 7.4mm profile gives it a modern appearance while keeping the overall design relatively lightweight for a large-screen smartphone.

The Galaxy A37 5G is available in four colors:

• Graygreen
• Charkoal
• White
• Light Violet

The device also features an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. It is dust-tight and designed to withstand immersion in up to 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes under specified laboratory conditions.

For biometric security, Samsung equips the phone with an optical fingerprint sensor integrated beneath the display.

SIM and Network Connectivity

The Galaxy A37 5G supports GSM, HSPA, LTE, and 5G network technologies.

Depending on the regional model, the phone supports Nano-SIM + eSIM configurations. Certain versions support Nano-SIM + Nano-SIM + eSIM + eSIM, with a maximum of two active SIM profiles at a time.

The 5G connectivity allows the smartphone to connect to compatible next-generation cellular networks, while GSM, HSPA, and LTE provide compatibility with older cellular technologies where available.

Display

The Galaxy A37 5G features a large 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.

The screen has a resolution of 1080 × 2340 pixels, a 19.5:9 aspect ratio, and approximately 385 pixels per inch. It has an estimated screen-to-body ratio of approximately 86.5%.

The display reaches up to 1,200 nits in High Brightness Mode (HBM) and up to 1,900 nits peak brightness, providing improved visibility in bright outdoor conditions.

The 120Hz refresh rate allows supported animations, scrolling, menus, and games to appear smoother than on conventional 60Hz screens.

The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+, providing additional resistance against everyday scratches and accidental damage.

Software and Operating System

The Galaxy A37 5G launches with Android 16 and Samsung's One UI 8.5 interface.

Samsung provides support for up to six major Android OS updates, giving the smartphone an extended software-support lifecycle.

One UI provides Samsung's customized Android experience, including personalization features, multitasking tools, security functions, and integration with the broader Galaxy ecosystem.

The extended update policy is particularly useful for users who plan to keep the smartphone for several years.

Performance and Processor

The Samsung Galaxy A37 5G is powered by the Exynos 1480 chipset, manufactured using a 4nm process.

The processor uses an octa-core configuration consisting of:

• 4 × 2.75 GHz Cortex-A78
• 4 × 2.0 GHz Cortex-A55

Graphics processing is handled by the Xclipse 530 GPU.

The combination of the Exynos 1480 chipset and 4nm manufacturing process is designed to deliver responsive everyday performance while maintaining power efficiency.

The hardware is suitable for common tasks such as web browsing, social media, video streaming, photography, multitasking, productivity applications, and gaming.

Memory and Storage

The Galaxy A37 5G is available in several RAM and storage configurations:

• 128GB + 6GB RAM
• 128GB + 8GB RAM
• 256GB + 8GB RAM
• 256GB + 12GB RAM

The smartphone uses UFS 3.1 storage, providing fast data access and application loading.

Unlike the Galaxy A55 5G, the Galaxy A37 5G does not include a microSD card slot. This means storage cannot be expanded using a memory card, so users should select their preferred storage capacity when purchasing the phone.

The 256GB models provide additional space for applications, photographs, videos, games, documents, and offline media.

Triple Rear Camera System

The Galaxy A37 5G features a triple rear-camera system.

The primary camera is a 50-megapixel wide-angle sensor with an f/1.8 aperture, 1/1.56-inch sensor size, and 1.0µm pixels.

It features phase-detection autofocus (PDAF) and optical image stabilization (OIS). OIS helps reduce camera shake when taking photographs and recording video, particularly when shooting handheld or in lower-light conditions.

The main camera is accompanied by an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera with an f/2.2 aperture and a 16mm equivalent focal length.

The ultrawide camera uses a 1/4.0-inch sensor with 1.12µm pixels and is designed for capturing landscapes, architecture, group photographs, and scenes where a wider field of view is useful.

The third rear camera is a 5-megapixel macro camera with an f/2.4 aperture, designed for close-up photography.

Camera features include:

• LED flash
• Panorama
• HDR

Rear Camera Video

The Galaxy A37 5G's rear camera system supports video recording at up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second.

It also supports:

• 1080p at 30fps
• 1080p at 60fps

Gyroscope-based electronic image stabilization (gyro-EIS) helps reduce unwanted movement and camera shake while recording video.

Selfie Camera

The front-facing camera is a 12-megapixel wide-angle camera with an f/2.2 aperture, 1/3.2-inch sensor, and 1.12µm pixels.

The selfie camera supports:

• 4K video at 30fps
• 1080p video at 30fps
• 10-bit HDR video

The front camera is suitable for selfies, video calls, social media content, and high-quality front-facing video recording.

Audio and Speakers

The Galaxy A37 5G features stereo speakers, providing a wider and more immersive audio experience when watching videos, playing games, or listening to music.

There is no 3.5mm headphone jack.

Users who want to connect wired headphones will therefore need USB Type-C headphones or a compatible USB Type-C audio adapter.

Wireless Connectivity

The Galaxy A37 5G supports Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/6, including dual-band Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct.

Bluetooth connectivity is provided through Bluetooth 5.4, with support for A2DP and Low Energy (LE).

The phone also supports NFC, although NFC availability can vary depending on the market or regional model.

For positioning and navigation, the device supports:

• GPS
• Galileo
• GLONASS
• BDS
• QZSS

The Galaxy A37 5G does not include an FM radio.

USB Connectivity

The smartphone uses a USB Type-C 2.0 port with support for USB On-The-Go (OTG).

The USB-C connection can be used for charging, wired data transfer, and compatible peripherals.

Sensors and Biometrics

The Galaxy A37 5G includes several sensors and biometric features:

• Optical under-display fingerprint sensor
• Accelerometer
• Gyroscope
• Compass
• Virtual proximity sensing

The under-display optical fingerprint reader provides biometric authentication, while the accelerometer and gyroscope support motion detection, screen orientation, gaming, and other applications.

Virtual proximity sensing is used for proximity-related functions without relying on a conventional physical proximity sensor.

Battery and Charging

The Galaxy A37 5G is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery.

It supports 45W wired charging, allowing the battery to be replenished faster than smartphones limited to lower charging rates.

Battery life will vary depending on factors such as display brightness, 120Hz usage, cellular reception, 5G connectivity, gaming, video streaming, camera usage, and installed applications.

The 5,000mAh capacity provides a substantial battery reserve for everyday activities such as browsing, messaging, social media, calls, streaming, photography, and navigation.

Colors

The Samsung Galaxy A37 5G is available in four colors:
