When you hold the Samsung Galaxy A57 5G for the first time, you immediately notice how slim and light it is.
Samsung lists the thickness as 6.9 mm; we measured it at just 6.8 mm, though it’s up to 9.85 mm with the camera protruding.
The matte aluminum frame also gives it a very high-quality look, though the glass back is a classic fingerprint magnet.
The glass, just like on the front, is durable Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+.
The Galaxy A57 withstands attempts to bend it without so much as a sound and puts up considerable resistance.

The build quality conveys a genuine premium feel; only the gaps between the glass on the back and the surrounding frame are, upon close inspection, not quite uniform in the corners. The Galaxy A57 withstands attempts to bend it without so much as a sound and puts up considerable resistance.
Samsung has upgraded the IP rating of its smartphone and now certifies it as IP68, meaning it’s not only dustproof but also remains waterproof when submerged for extended periods (in clear water, up to a depth of 1.5 m, for at least 30 minutes). It is available in Awesome Gray, Icy Blue, Lilac, and Navy.
