Samsung Galaxy A42 5G to be one of the first with Snapdragon 750G

Ro, 22 September 2020

Samsung's most affordable 5G-enabled handset, the Galaxy A42 5G was announced earlier this month but the company was hesitant to unveil the full specs of the device. And now we know why.

According to the source code of Galaxy A42 5G's benchmark, the handset is running Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 750G chipset. At the time of the phone's announcement, the chipset wasn't around yet, so we can see why Samsung was so secretive.

The source doesn't explicitly say it's the SD 750G but the configuration of two cores running at 2.21 GHz and six more ticking at 1.8 GHz along with the Adreno 619 GPU makes it quite obvious.

it's impossible that Samsung would put 750g for a42 if someone says that they would pick it for a72 then it would make sense even if someone say that they will be putting a Snapdragon 690 for a42 then it is still impossible for Samsung
