Samsung Galaxy A56 Spotted on FCC With 45W Charging vs. Just 25W in Flagship S25

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy A56 recently appeared on the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) website, giving new insights into midrange specs.
The FCC listing confirms that the Galaxy A56 will support 45W wired charging speeds (10V/4.5A), as noted in a listing from China’s 3C certification body in November. If true, it means the midrange A56 can charge faster than the flagship Galaxy S25, which has a 25W charging speed, and as fast as higher-end models in the flagship lineup like the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Other features noted in the FCC filing include Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 6 support, and a Samsung chipset, likely the Exynos 1580, based on earlier leaks, as reported by Android Authority. The Galaxy A56 is rumored to include 5,000mAh battery and Samsung’s classic triple rear camera system (50MP + 12MP + 5MP).
The Galaxy A56’s appearance in regulatory filings suggests its official launch is coming soon. However, it is still unclear if it will be available in the US market, as the Galaxy A55 was not released here
With a 5,000 mAh battery compared with the 4,000 mAh battery size in S25 and charging speeds of 45W compared with 25W, one would believe that A56 is a better deal. But the S25 comes with the top-notch Snapdragon 8 Elite, which significantly increases the price. You can find the specs of the Galaxy S25 here.
