Samsung Galaxy A36 5G

OhoPrice editorial review

The Samsung Galaxy A36 5G is a strong choice for someone who wants a balanced everyday phone with a better screen and reliable battery life. The 6.7" Super AMOLED at 1080x2340 is the real practical advantage here — sharper blacks and better contrast than most LCD rivals, which makes social feeds, video and reading easier on the eyes. The 8GB RAM and octa-core processor should handle day-to-day apps, multitasking and light to moderate gaming well; it won't be the fastest phone in class, but it's solid enough for PUBG-lite, Asphalt and browser tabs without frequent slowdowns. The 5000mAh battery is another key strength, and with Samsung's power management it should comfortably last a full day of mixed use. Camera-wise, the 50MP main plus 8MP ultrawide and 5MP macro give useful flexibility for daylight shots, while the 12MP front is good enough for decent video calls and selfies. Low-light performance won't match flagship phones, but the main camera should still be the most reliable shooter in this price bracket. Compared to the Infinix Note 60 Pro, the A36 5G trades Infinix's larger 6500mAh battery and extended RAM feature for Samsung's more polished Super AMOLED screen and broader rear camera setup. The Infinix may last longer on a charge and offer slightly higher peak performance with its Cortex-A720/A520 mix, but the Samsung is likely to feel more stable in everyday use and better for media because of the display. If you want a cleaner screen and dependable camera versatility, the A36 is the safer buy; if absolute battery capacity and a lower price are your main priorities, the Note 60 Pro has the edge.
