Samsung appears to be gearing up for the next entry in its A-series lineup. Test firmware for the Galaxy A37 has surfaced on Samsung's internal servers, and the builds specifically target the SM-A376U model — the variant bound for the US market.
Test builds name major US carriers — that’s telling
The firmware traces include carrier-specific builds for AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and UScellular, which is a strong signal Samsung plans broad distribution across the United States. Seeing US firmware in active development is encouraging: the Galaxy A36 took roughly four months to arrive in the US after its global debut, so starting work on American builds early increases the chance the A37 won’t repeat that delay.
Specs are still a mystery — here’s what we can use as a benchmark
At the moment there are no reliable leaks detailing the A37’s hardware. That said, the Galaxy A36 gives us a useful reference point and a sense of what Samsung might refine or retain:
- Display: 6.7-inch Super AMOLED, 1080 x 2340 resolution, 120Hz refresh and up to 1,900 nits peak brightness
- Chipset: Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 (on the A36)
- Memory and storage: configurations from 6GB to 12GB RAM and 128GB/256GB storage
- Cameras: triple rear setup (50MP main with OIS, 8MP ultrawide, 5MP macro) and a 12MP selfie shooter
- Battery and charging: 5,000 mAh battery with 45W wired charging support
Imagine the A37 keeping the A36’s best bits while nudging camera performance, battery efficiency or the chipset up a notch. That’s typically Samsung’s approach for incremental A-series updates, but until leaks or an official announcement appear, it’s speculative.

Why the firmware leak matters
Early firmware on Samsung’s test servers does more than confirm a model exists — carrier builds suggest plans for a US launch window and help developers and retailers prepare. For buyers, it’s a hint that an official reveal could be closer than it seems, even if final specs and pricing are still under wraps.
We’ll keep an eye out for certification listings, hands-on photos, or benchmark sightings that reveal the A37’s hardware and software details. For now, expect Samsung to follow its usual cadence: an official announcement followed by staggered market rollouts, with the US availability likely prioritized given the carrier-specific firmware already in development.
