Samsung galaxy a77 5g set to launch soon

ISLAMABAD: The last Galaxy A7x device from Samsung was the A73 in 2022. The A7x series hasn‘t seen anything since early 2022; until now, it looks like the series is finally being rejuvenated with the new Galaxy A77.

We recently saw a prototype of the A77 appear in the Geekbench online database, complete with 8GB of RAM, running Android 16 and boasting a “mystery” chipset that seems to be based on Samsung’s Exynos 2400 and 2400e.

Based on its CPU clock configuration, I‘d expect it to be a lower–end chip. The CPU contains three Prime cores clocked to a measly (by 2023 standards) 2.78GHz, three performance cores clocked to 2.3GHz, and four efficiency cores clocked to 1.82GHz.

So yes, still dectacore CPU, like the Exynos 2400 and 2400e, but lower CPU clocks than those flagships. This probably puts the A77 squarely in the upper-midranger, not the flagship or flagship adjacent category device.

I suspect there are lower-end Exynos 2400 family chips just sitting around at Samsung that they can make great use of, why not?
