Slim 6.9mm IP68 body at 179g, but ₹62,999 is steep without a telephoto lens.

Is it any good?
At ₹62,999 for 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, the Galaxy A57 5G pushes Samsung’s upper mid-range pricing straight into Galaxy S-series territory. Its main calling card is physical design: it trims thickness down to 6.9mm and weight to 179g while upgrading dust and water resistance to a full IP68 rating with Gorilla Glass Victus+ front and back.
You get a 6.7-inch Full HD+ 120Hz Super AMOLED Plus display, a 5,000 mAh battery with Super Fast Charging 2.0 (rated for 60% in 30 minutes), eSIM support, tri-band Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 6.0. Software runs One UI 8.5 with six OS upgrades and security updates committed until March 2032.
The catch is the price tag. At ₹62,999, it costs ₹3,000 more than the 128GB Galaxy S25 FE and ₹14,000 more than the 8GB + 256GB Galaxy A56 5G, yet it still uses a 5MP macro camera instead of a telephoto lens and shares the same 2.9GHz octa-core CPU clock speeds as last year’s A56.
