AnTuTu
Scores depend on benchmark version, configuration and test conditions. Android and iOS results, and different AnTuTu major versions, are not directly comparable.
Notes
Consumer 5G model, not Enterprise Edition. Date follows the global availability announcement; earlier regional sales may exist. Date source: https://www.samsungmobilepress.com/articles/samsung-galaxy-a56-5g-galaxy-a36-5g-and-galaxy-a26-5g-are-now-available-worldwide . Security end is a calculated month, not a manufacturer cutoff day. Verified released Android major version: 16, based on the linked model/market. Rollout and patch builds may differ by region and carrier. Top entry in the linked Samsung model/region-specific firmware log rechecked 2026-10-12: Android 16. This does not establish simultaneous availability in every region.
Notes
Up to 6 OS upgrades and 6 security years. Final Android version is calculated from launch OS plus upgrade count; security end is estimated from availability reference plus years, at month precision. Cadence source: https://security.samsungmobile.com/workScope.smsb . Market and carrier timing may differ. Cadence rechecked 2026-10-12 against Samsung Mobile Security scope. This is not re-verification of the entire support commitment.
