Samsung's Exynos 1680 chipset has been spotted inside the upcoming Galaxy A57. Paired with 12 GB of RAM, the Exynos 1680 chipset also contains an Xclipse 550 GPU. Early performance comparisons with the Exynos 1580 are not straightforward at this stage, though.

Samsung is not expected to replace the Galaxy A56 for another few months (curr. $359 on Amazon). Nonetheless, a device purporting to be the Samsung SM-A576B has now turned up on Geekbench, two days after the CCC certified a device with the same model number in China.

As we discussed at the time, the model number SM-A576B is consistent with Samsung's past Galaxy A series naming schemes. Consequently, it looks like the Galaxy A57 has now appeared on Geekbench before its presumed release alongside the Galaxy A27 and Galaxy A37 in early 2026. Incidentally, these pair have been the subject of recent rumours too.

Based on the screenshot below, the Galaxy A57 leverages the 'S5E8865' and 12 GB of RAM. Although the Geekbench listing does not confirm as much, 'S5E8865' is expected to be the Exynos 1680's codename after its appearance in a leaked Geekbench OpenCL benchmark earlier this year.

Seemingly, the Exynos 1680 contains the same underlying CPU cores as its predecessor with three ARM v8 clusters delivering 1.9 GHz, 2.6 GHz and 2.91 GHz peak clock speeds across Efficient, Performance and Prime cores, respectively. While the Galaxy A57 is undoubtedly running pre-release software, it enjoys a 10% multi-core advantage over its predecessor in Geekbench 6.5. The former's single-core score is 4% lower than the latter's though, which we doubt represents final performance levels.
