Weekly deals: Galaxy A57 gets first real discount, Galaxy A37 and S25 FE also on sale

It took a while, but the Samsung Galaxy A57 is finally available at Amazon — and it starts with a $60 discount. This is slightly less than the A37 discount, but it is enough to change the balance of power between the two.

The A37 is the cheaper model and if you can live with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of non-expandable storage, then yes, it’s meaningfully cheaper. But there is currently only a $10 difference between the 256GB models of the A37 and A57.

The Galaxy A57 is a thinner (6.9 mm vs 7.4 mm) and lighter (179 g vs 196 g) phone with an aluminum frame (vs plastic). Both have the same battery, 5,000mAh with 45W charging, so you won’t lose anything in that regard. The A57 brings a faster chipset (Exynos 1680 vs 1480) and has a small edge in connectivity (Wi-Fi 6E, BT 6.0) and a better ultra-wide camera. It also has a physical proximity sensor, which we know is important to some of you.

While you’re at it, also take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE – it’s currently $60 more than the A57 for both 8/128GB and 8/256GB memory configurations, but you might be glad you spent the extra money in a few years.

While not as thin as the A57, the S25 FE has the same premium (for mid-range) build and an even faster Exynos 2400 chipset. Additionally, it has a dedicated telephoto camera, 8MP 3x/75mm. Battery endurance drops slightly (11:57h active usage score vs. 13:59h for the A57), but the S-phone adds 15W wireless charging as an option. This is on top of 45W wired charging over USB-C – that’s a USB 3.2 port with DisplayPort with full support for DeX.

The Google Pixel 10a is in the same price range as the A57, but it’s a smaller phone with a 6.3″ display (compared to Samsung’s 6.7″). The old Tensor G4 chipset was never any good, but it’s faster than the Exynos 1680. Additionally, Google managed to pack a larger battery (5,100mAh) with both wired (30W) and wireless charging (10W) into a smaller package and it squeezed out a longer battery life (15:13h).

The Google Pixel 10 (no “a”) is significantly more expensive than the 10a and A57 – it even costs more than the Galaxy S25 FE. However, it adds a telephoto camera with a longer lens (10.8MP 5x/112mm) and the new Tensor G5 takes on the Exynos 2400. Battery life isn’t great (12:08 hours), but at least the Pixel 10 has an excuse for its smaller size – it’s a 6.3″ phone versus 6.7″ for the S25 FE.

There’s also the Google Pixel 10 Pro, which keeps the screen size at 6.3″, but uses a higher-resolution LTPO panel. Other improvements include better cameras, though not better performance or battery life. We have a detailed Pixel 10 vs Pixel 10 Pro comparison available for a closer look.

Google makes you pay extra for the larger screen – the Pixel 10 Pro XL has a 6.8″ display and is the most expensive of the four non-folding models. Thanks to its extra size, it has a slightly larger 5,200mAh battery, but that’s not enough to fix the stamina, which still stands at a low 12:29h. The performance and cameras are identical to the 10 Pro.
