The Korean brand ‘Samsung’ recently introduced its mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy A55, which is powered by the Exynos 1480 chipset. Let’s take a closer look at this chipset.
Initially, Samsung did not announce the name of the chipset, but now it appears that the giants are now setting up to formally announce their latest mid-range Exynos chipset. The fans eagerly wanted to know the key details of the Exynos 1480 mid-range chipset. So here we are mentioning the key details of the chipset:
Samsung Foundry’s 4nm (4LPP+) process node powers the newest Exynos 1480, a significant upgrade over the 5nm Exynos 1380 chip from last year. This chipset includes:
- Four ARM Cortex-A78 CPU cores clocked at 2.75GHz
- Four ARM Cortex-A55 CPU cores clocked at 2GHz
The Korean giants stated that this new Exynos chip is 22% more power-efficient than its predecessor. Also, this chipset is suitable for LPDDR4x/LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage.
The Exynos 1480 is the first mid-range chipset of the Exynos family, which is an AMD RDNA-based Xclipse 530 GPU. This will enhance the experience by delivering a seamless Full HD+ resolution display at a refresh rate of 144 Hz. Apart from this, if the reports are to be believed, this GPU uses AMD’s RDNA 2 technique.
The brand also assures on its website that it uses the latest RDNA technique, named RDNA 3. Samsung also claimed that the Exynos 1480 will deliver 53% faster GPU performance as compared to the Exynos 1380. It has some advanced gaming features, such as variable rate shading (VRS) and super resolution (frame upscaling).
The ISP, which stands for Image Signal Processor, supports at least 200 MP camera sensors, and it has the power to process frames from two camera sensors that are 32 MP + 32 MP together along with zero shutter lag or one 64 MP camera sensor with zero shutter lag and HDR. It has the power to record 4K 60fps videos. The built-in AI Engine (NPU) has 4x faster on-device AI performance as compared to its predecessor. This has fabricated a 5G model with mmWave and sub-6GHz network compatibility. The rest of the connectivity features of the Exynos 1480 include GNSS (BeiDou, Galileo, GLONASS, and GPS), Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, and a USB Type-C port.
