Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy A series smartphones are expected to be unveiled in the coming weeks. Some of the specs for the Galaxy A52 and Galaxy A72 were recently leaked. The design of the Galaxy A52 also leaked, along with the processor and memory capacity of its 5G variant. The next phone will also be released in a 4G version, and our friends in GalaxyClub found out that it uses a different processor.
If you are a Snapdragon fan, you should be happy with the Galaxy A52 4G (SM-A525F). Following a recent benchmark, the phone uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G processor. It’s a downgrade compared to the Snapdragon 750G processor used in the Galaxy A52 5G, but it’s still a huge upgrade over the Exynos 9611 processor in the Galaxy A51 and could offer decent gaming performance. The Snapdragon 720G uses two 2.3GHz Kryo 465 Gold CPU cores, six 1.8GHz Kryo 465 Silver CPU cores, the Adreno 618 GPU, and a 4G modem.
Geekbench 5 results show that the Galaxy A52 4G runs Android 11 and has 8GB of RAM. Following previous leaks, the smartphone could feature a quad-camera setup with a 64MP wide-angle camera and a macro camera. There will probably be an ultra-wide camera and a depth sensor in the mix. The phone appears to have a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED Infinity-O display, an in-display fingerprint reader, a USB Type-C port, and a headphone jack.
It is quite surprising to see that Samsung is not using any Exynos processor in any version of its Galaxy A52 even though it has a powerful chipset in the form of the Exynos 980. It is also surprising that the recently announced 5nm Exynos 1080 processor has not yet been released. found powering no Galaxy smartphone. We hope that at least the Galaxy A72 5G uses the Exynos 1080 SoC.
