Samsung Galaxy A25 5G slated to launch with Android 14 and 2022 silicon

The Samsung Galaxy A24 5G has failed to emerge alongside its 4G/LTE counterpart in 2023 thus far. Despite that, it apparently has a successor lurking around on Geekbench already. Its model number definitely indicates membership of the upcoming A25 series, although its specs are those of a current mid-range smartphone - except for the upgrade to Android 14, of course.
