Samsung might be getting ready to replace those two old modes with some new features in the final One UI 8.5 update. The listing was reportedly fabricated using a rooted Galaxy S24 FE whose identifying details had been altered to mimic another device.
• Samsung discontinued the Galaxy A7x series after releasing the Galaxy A73, meaning the line has been inactive for three years now.
However, it seemed like the company might have had a change of heart, as what appeared to be the first information regarding a Galaxy A77 surfaced online, suggesting a possible launch next year.
Initially, a benchmark listing suggested the Galaxy A77, featuring a high-end Exynos chip, was being prepared as the long-awaited successor to the Galaxy A73.
• Today, an unannounced Samsung phone bearing the model number SM-A776B was spotted in Geekbench’s system.
• Based purely on the model number structure, the device is expected to be launched as the Galaxy A77.
• As one of the world’s most widely used tools, Geekbench measures CPU performance on phones and computers, while also recording essential device details during the process.
The Galaxy A77 Will Run On Samsung’s S5E9865 Exynos Chip
• The reported details indicate the Galaxy A77 would be powered by Samsung’s S5E9865 Exynos chip. This processor reportedly uses a 10-core CPU configuration, consisting of six high-performance cores and four power-efficient cores.In terms of graphics, the phone is said to feature the AMD RDNA-based Xclipse 940 GPU. The listing also notes the device would ship with 8GB of RAM and operate on Android 16 (One UI 8.x).
• Prime CPU Cores: 3 Cores @ 2.78GHz
• Performance CPU Cores: 3 Cores @ 2.30GHz
• Efficient CPU Cores: 4 Cores @ 1.82GHz
Benchmark Tests Score the Chip’s Core Performance
The benchmarks show the chip reaching 1,673 in the single-core performance category and 5,597 in the multi-core performance category.
• These benchmarks are likely not representative of the final product’s performance, suggesting they should not be taken as definitive. The processor seems to be an underclocked version of the Exynos 2400, a chip also found in the Galaxy S24 and S24 FE.
• If this is not a faked Geekbench listing, the Galaxy A77 would likely be released in the first six months of next year, possibly alongside the established Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57.
• New data for the Galaxy A57 surfaced on Geekbench, suggesting the phone will feature the Exynos 1680 chip and 8GB of RAM, running on Android 16.
The phone is additionally rumored to include Bluetooth 6.1 connectivity and feature a 45W fast-charging speed.
