**📷 Camera & Video
* **Stock Camera:** Great natural light roll-off, but it locks you out of native RAW (.DNG) capture.
* **GCam:** Unlocks true 16-bit RAW. Paired with a macro lens, this sensor resolves insane micro-details (like human iris crypts and soap bubble iridescence).
* **Pro Video:** Using `mcpro24fps`, you can record 100+ Mbps 4K Log video (mS-Log2). *Warning:* Never use the stock Gallery video editor on these files; it aggressively crushes the bitrate down to ~30 Mbps!
**🎨 UI, Customization & AI**
* **One UI Tweaks:** The interface is incredibly smooth and highly customizable. You can easily tailor the OS to fit a power-user workflow, overriding default apps that limit hardware performance.
* **AI & Hands-Free Bixby:** The built-in AI features are genuinely practical for daily productivity. The A36 fully supports Bixby Voice wake-up, allowing you to go completely hands-free. Just by saying "Hi, Bixby," you can set alarms, make phone calls, and set daily reminders without ever touching the device.
**🎵 Audio Quality**
* The device delivers a crisp, immersive listening experience. It relies on standard Dolby Audio processing that handles high-fidelity music and media tracks beautifully, giving your media a punchy, clean soundstage without artificial spatial distortion.
**🔋 Battery Life**
* The battery backup is slightly on the lower side—especially when shooting heavy 4K Log video or gaming—but it is still more than enough to comfortably get you through a full day of use.

### ⚡ Quick Pros & Cons
**Pros:**
* 16-bit RAW capable (via GCam) and 100+ Mbps 4K video capable.
* Deep OS customization with practical AI tools and hands-free Bixby support.
* Great sound quality with standard Dolby Audio.
* Solid thermal management under heavy loads.
**Cons:**
* No native RAW toggle in the stock camera app.
* Stock gallery video editor ruins high-bitrate footage.
* Battery life is just "enough" rather than exceptional.
* heating issue sometimes
**Verdict:** A smooth, highly customizable daily driver that punches way above its weight class, transforming into a legitimate pocket cinema camera if you use the right third-party software pipeline.

Hey, I'm still on One UI 8. Should I update to 8.5? I've heard from many people that the phone starts lagging after the update.
Hi, I need some help. Before the One UI 8.5 update, my A36 ran very smoothly; games and apps were fast. After the update, the phone lags a lot and overheats, games no longer run on high graphics settings, and apps are sluggish. I don't know how to get rid of the lag and get it back to how it was before.
Is there anyway to use more of the power that we have ? It seems like samsung is limiting the phone to under 60% i cant push it further and it's lagging constantly now. Even on benchmarks it doesn't push the phone to its full potential, feels like samsung gave the A36 a good processor and then realized the phone should have worse performance .
Will One UI 9 make the A36 slower or faster?
