Both the Galaxy A57 and A37 devices have appeared in the EU’s EPREL database (under model numbers SM-A576B/DS and SM-A376B/DS), and the energy labels reveal some interesting details, especially around battery life and durability.
Starting with battery life, both phones receive an A grade under the EU’s standardized testing. The Galaxy A37 is rated for up to 53 hours of usage on a single charge, while the A57 is listed at 52 hours. These numbers are based on a fixed EU usage cycle — typically a mix of calls, web browsing, video playback, and standby — so they won’t reflect every real-world scenario, but they do suggest solid day-and-a-half endurance for most users.
Both models are listed with a 4,905mAh rated battery, which Samsung will almost certainly market as a typical 5,000mAh capacity. Fast charging is said to top out at 45W, which keeps them competitive in the mid-range space.
The Galaxy A57 and A37 are both certified with IP68 water and dust resistance. That’s a step up from the IP67 rating seen on their predecessors. On paper at least, that’s a meaningful upgrade. Drop resistance ratings differ slightly, though. The A57 earns an A rating, while the A37 gets a B. Repairability sits at C for both, which is fairly typical for modern sealed smartphones.
According to the EU label, both phones are certified for 1,200 full charge cycles before battery capacity drops below 80 percent of its original level. That’s noticeably lower than the 2,000 cycles previously listed for the Galaxy A56 and A36. The same reduction was also observed on the Galaxy S26 series, which suggests this could be part of a broader shift in Samsung’s battery strategy, possibly tied to chemistry changes or internal design adjustments.
It doesn’t necessarily mean the batteries are worse in everyday use. But for users who hold onto their phones for four or five years, that lower cycle rating is something to keep in mind.
An official launch is expected next month. As always, the full picture will depend on pricing and real-world testing.
