One of our top-rated budget phones just got cheaper — the Samsung Galaxy A57 is just AU$519 in this Prime Day deal

I love how premium-feeling Samsung’s mid-range Galaxy A57 feels compared to phones in its price range, and this 31% discount makes it even more compelling.

One of our top-rated budget phones just got cheaper — the Samsung Galaxy A57 is just AU$519 in this Prime Day deal

The Samsung Galaxy A57, a budget-friendly smartphone with a stellar reputation, has been discounted to AU$519 in an Amazon Prime Day deal. This significant price reduction brings the already affordable mid-range device to an even more appealing price point.

Outperforming its price tag, the Galaxy A57 has been featured in the author's list of the best cheap phones in Australia. The device features a slim and lightweight design, a vibrant display, and a display that rivals flagship models.

In comparison to Samsung's new Galaxy S26 FE, the Galaxy A57 provides better value, especially considering its price increase from its predecessor. Both phones share similar display and camera specifications, as well as storage and battery capacity. However, the S26 FE comes with a higher price tag, starting at AU$1,149.

The Galaxy A57 boasts improvements over its predecessor, including a thinner and lighter chassis, a faster chipset for enhanced AI capabilities, and an improved durability rating. This makes the Galaxy A57 an excellent choice for those seeking a premium feel without breaking the bank.
