Counterpoint Research reports that Galaxy A56 5G sales in Western Europe were up 12% over the Galaxy A55 5G in their first seven weeks of availability. That’s pretty impressive, as there’s no shortage of mid-range phones in the region. Samsung has to contend with offerings from Google, HONOR, Motorola, realme, Xiaomi, and more.
