Bank offers are set by the bank, capped, often limited to specific cards, and can change or end without notice. The price you pay is whatever the retailer shows at checkout — always confirm there.
Prices and stock are the last values recorded for each store listing, with the check date shown — they may have moved. Card offers and coupons appear only where an editor has entered them.

The Samsung Galaxy A36 gives you a large 6.7-inch screen and a dependable 5000 mAh battery for daily use. With 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, multitasking and storing apps is straightforward. The 50 MP main camera handles everyday pictures well.
What works
What does not
Spec scores — worked out from the specification sheet (chip, battery against screen size, display, camera, ANC…) and the store price, not from hands-on testing. Sound quality and a watch's accuracy are not on a spec sheet, so part of those areas is the price class among similar products. Areas the specs cannot tell us are left out.
Before you buy
The 5000 mAh cell powers the 6.7-inch screen, but heavy usage may require a midday recharge.
Keep local Samsung service centre proximity in mind for future maintenance and resale value.

Its best areas are portability (73/100). It scores 56/100 overall. These come from the specification sheet and the store price — nobody has handled the product, so they say what it should be able to do, not how it feels to use.
It does not fit any one job strongly — gaming is its closest at 59/100. For photography it scores 58/100, below the 65 we treat as a fit — look at something built for that instead.
The Motorola Edge 70 Fusion scores higher (77/100 against 56/100) for about the same. Both are judged on their specification sheets and today's prices, so put them side by side if one spec matters more to you than the total.
