Samsung is working on a mid-range chipset called Exynos 1580, which might be as powerful as the flagship SoCs from 2021 – Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100.
According to a Geekbench listing, the new platform will have a CPU with one 2.91 GHz, three 2.6 GHz and four 1.95 GHz cores – similar to the Exynos 2100 or Qualcomm Snapdragon 888.
The Exynos 1580 will reach a score of over 1,000 for a single core and 3,678 for multiple cores (that’s on Geekbench 5), which is also on par with the flagship chipsets, built back in 2021 on a 5 nm FinFET process technology.
Exynos 1580 could debut with the Galaxy A56, similar to the Exynos 1480, which arrived with the Galaxy A55 in March 2024. It will be the first mid-range Exynos platform to use a three-cluster CPU solution, which should improve both raw performance and power efficiency.
