The Galaxy A55 is anticipated to be powered by the new Exynos 1480 chipset, as indicated by its performance in a Geekbench scorecard. Meanwhile, the Galaxy A35 will opt for the previous Exynos 1380 chip, as confirmed by its own Geekbench result.
The Samsung Galaxy A45 (SM-A356E) featured 8GB of RAM and will be powered by Android 14 (with One UI 6.x). The 1380 chip is manufactured using Samsung’s 5nm EUV foundries and is equipped with four Cortex-A78 cores (2.4GHz) and four A55 cores (2.0GHz), in addition to an ARM Mali-G68 GPU.

The Exynos 1380 was utilized in a few phones, such as the Galaxy A54, F54, and M54, and it demonstrated a significant improvement in multi-core performance compared to the Exynos 1280, as well as a minor increase in single-core performance. Both chips use the Mali-G68 GPU, although the 1380 proved to be faster. Additionally, the Galaxy A55 is expected to outperform its A35 counterpart thanks to the upcoming 1480 chip, which will include an AMD Xclipse 530 GPU. On a side note, last year’s Galaxy A34 was equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 chip, featuring the same A78/A55 CPU and Mali-G68 GPU.

There is currently no official announcement about the release of the Galaxy A35 and A55, but considering the launch of the A34 and A54 in March, their arrival is likely just a month away.
