Samsung refreshes its best-selling segment in Algeria: the Galaxy A36 and A26 arrive with two arguments rare in their class — IP67 water resistance as standard and 6 years of promised updates.
Two chips, two philosophies
The A36 runs the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 — fluid, efficient, decent light gaming. The A26 stays on a humbler Exynos: fine for daily use, but that is the main border between them.
What moves upmarket
- Super AMOLED 120 Hz screens on both
- 5000 mAh batteries, 45 W charging (A36) / 25 W (A26)
- Thinner designs

The math for Algerian buyers
6 years of updates on a ~40,000 DZD phone is about 18 DZD per day over its life. The A26 plays economist: same screen, same water resistance, less power — the right pick if you don't game.
