Samsung Galaxy A77 lands on Geekbench with powerful GPU: Key specs
The Samsung Galaxy A7x series, missing in action since the Galaxy A73 in 2022, appears ready for a revival. Recent findings on Geekbench show a new Samsung device, likely the Galaxy A77, sporting a model number that suggests the A7x line is making a return.
The device, listed under the model number SM-A776B, follows Samsung's predictable naming scheme for its mid-range and low-end “Galaxy A” devices. Samsung labels the Galaxy A56 5G as SM-A566x, for example, so everything seems pretty clear.
A surprising Samsung Galaxy A77 appears in Geekbench's benchmark
The presumed Galaxy A77 was tested running on a new, unannounced Samsung Exynos SoC. This chip features a deca-core CPU in a setup with 3x cores clocked at 2.78GHz, 3x at 2.30GHz, and 3x at 1.82GHz.
Another notable detail is the GPU: the Xclipse 940. This GPU is the same as Samsung's older flagship Exynos 2400/2400e chips. So, the A77 could boast powerful graphic processing capabilities in the mid-range category.
More powerful than Samsung's average mid-range
The device tested on Geekbench ran on Android 16 and included 8GB of RAM. This clearly denotes its mid-range nature. The hardware combination reached 1,673 single-core and 5,697 multi-core scores in Geekbench 6's tests.
This multi-core score represents nearly a 45% leap over the Exynos 1580 found in the current Galaxy A56, pushing the new chip's performance very close to that of the Exynos 2400/Exynos 2400e. While the results are comparable to those of the Exynos 2400, the motherboard model does not match (s5e9865 vs. s5e9945).
Anyway, the Galaxy A77 seems to target a segment of high-performance devices at a price below the Galaxy S FE phones. The latest Galaxy S25 FE is powered by the Exynos 2400 chip, for reference.
While this initial appearance confirms a very capable hardware setup in its segment, details regarding the official launch date remain unknown. Let's hope more information emerges on this matter in the coming weeks.
In related news, the upcoming Galaxy A57 was also listed on Geekbench, revealing some interesting details about its specs, including another new Exynos chip.
