Samsung is looking forward to debuting its latest mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy A56. It is expected to be powered by its upcoming mid-range chipset, the Exynos 1580.
The Korean tech giant is developing a new chipset, the Exynos 1580, to power its next-generation mid-range device, the Galaxy A56. The coming chipset is expected to deliver upgraded and smooth performance as compared to its predecessor. Reportedly, the Galaxy A56 has a model number SM-A566B, and the chipset Exynos 1580 has S5E8855.
The Exynos 1580 includes eight CPU cores: one prime core at 2.91GHz, three mid-cores at 2.60GHz, and four small cores at 1.95GHz. These cores run at a higher clock speed and target higher single-core performance.
According to the Geekbench record, the Exynos 1580 has a new GPU, the Xclipse 540, with the code name “Angle.” This GPU is potentially based on AMD’s RDNA 3 architecture, the same as the current Exynos 2400’s Xclipse 940.
The coming Galaxy A56 is expected to feature 8GB of RAM. However, the currently existing Galaxy A55 is available in three variants based on RAM, including 6GB, 8GB, and 12GB. Since the device is expected to run Android 15 out of the box, it suggests that it will debut by the end of this year or maybe early next year.
Apart from the Galaxy A56, Samsung is also working on another new mid-range device, the Galaxy A16, whose price and color options have already been leaked.
