Samsung Galaxy A56 is in the works with huge performance boost

19 September 2024
It could finally bring a much-needed improvement in the area where its predecessors have suffered the most.

Also, concerning the other comments, Samsung could put a Snapdragon 8 gen 2 in this and the comments would still find some reason to complain like no FM radio or infrared port so they would still recommend buying a Chinese phone. Whether the Chinese phone gives all your personal information to Xi or gets a motherboard failure within 2 years or stops getting updates right after if it lasts longer, those things don’t matter. Just bigger number better, bigger Geekbench number more RAM number more Megapixel number

    Anonymous, 19 Sep 2024Funny how your title says „huge performance boost“ and then... moreSo I looked up the missing information (this was harder because Geekbench 5 is old now)

    A55 Exynos 1480: 882/2808
    Vivo Snapdragon 888: 1135/3681

    https://m.gsmarena.com/vivo_with_snapdragon_888_does_early_geekbench_5_test-news-46547.php

    Maybe I should apply as an author so that they can have higher quality articles than what they spew out now.

      Just a reminder that in some countries, their A55 was sold at $200 more than X6 Pro lmao. Of course, software and cameras were subpar but the difference was not worth 200 bucks.

      Ads can also be removed if you know how to follow a youtube video tutorial.

        Funny how your title says „huge performance boost“ and then you don’t even mention the predecessor, from which the performance should be boosted, let alone give the values. One always has to look up the context of the predecessor phone with this site.

          "..the Exynos 1580 is around the performance of flagship 2021 chipsets like the Snapdragon 888."

          Fantastic, and it's Exynos, so it will likely heat up just as much as the 888 did.

              The A56 may have cpu comparable to sd 888 but for the price of an A56, one can just buy a chinese phone with a CPU comparable to 8 gen 2

                  if only samsung uses snapdragon 7 gen midrange chipset it would sell tons of phone but its decided to stick with exynos. other brands that uses snapdragon midrange are all better phone. i know coz I uses a poco f5 performance wise non of the A series can come close

                    Invetor, 19 Sep 2024please bear in mind CPU performance isn't the only met... moreAnd performance isn't the only metric to the whole user experience of a phone. That said, I'm only willing to pay up to 20% "samsung tax".

                      It needs 7+ Gen 3 or higher, not some random exynos

                        Hanif Fikri, 19 Sep 2024I could get sd 8 gen 2 phone at a56 price by next year...Exactly, these phones are so expensive compared to anything coming out of CN. And the build quality is worse, too. OneUI is very nice but in my opinion 6.0 went downhill with a couple of bad changes they made. Now some of the Xiaomi midrangers and a few POCOs even get 3 years of updates or more. I rock one of these purely because they still have microSD slots but as soon as I can get a Note 14 or similar variant with 512GB im switching.

                              Finally match $300 Chinese phone performance... Even the recent Infinix with D8200 is equivalent to SD888. Since the A56 was released in 2025, there are more and more cheap phones faster than this.
