Earlier this month, the Samsung Galaxy A16 5G ran Geekbench powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 6300 chipset. Today, another version of the Galaxy A16 5G has also been spotted in the Geekbench database, but with an entirely different SoC.
This time around, it's Samsung's Exynos 1380 processor that's in charge. We'd compare the results, but the two devices ran different versions of Geekbench.
The point here is that it seems Samsung will offer the A16 5G with two different chipsets depending on the market. The SM-A166P with the Dimensity 6300, and the SM-A166E with the Exynos 1380, a chip also used in the Galaxy A54 and Galaxy A35.
The Galaxy A16 5G prototype that ran Geekbench today only had 4GB of RAM, so we really hope there will be more options on offer. Samsung is also working on a 4G-only Galaxy A16, by the way.
