Samsung’s Galaxy A7X series, shelved four years after the release of the Galaxy A73, is being revived. The first traces of the Galaxy A77, presumably the newest member of the series, have surfaced on the popular benchmarking platform Geekbench, reinforcing expectations of its return.
Galaxy A77 is making an appearance
An unannounced Samsung phone with the model number SM-A776B has been spotted on the Geekbench database. Based on Samsung’s current model numbering tradition, this device is expected to launch as the Galaxy A77.
According to leaked screenshots, the Galaxy A77 uses the Exynos (S5E9865) chipset, designed by Samsung’s System LSI team. This processor boasts a total of 10 cores.
The cores are arranged as three 2.78 GHz Prime cores, three 2.30 GHz Performance cores, and four 1.82 GHz Efficiency cores. On the graphics side, AMD’s Xclipse 940 GPU, based on the RDNA architecture, is equipped. The device also comes with 8GB of RAM and will likely run Android 16/One UI 8.x out of the box.
The processor is believed to be a down-clocked version of the Exynos 2400 chip found in Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 FE models. The device achieved a single-core score of 1,673 and a multi-core score of 5,597 in Geekbench tests.
If the Geekbench listing is accurate, the Galaxy A77 is expected to be introduced in the first half of next year, alongside the Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57. This suggests Samsung will reassert its position in the mid- to high-end smartphone market.
