Samsung Exynos 1480

Released Mar 28, 2024Mobile Chipset

Samsung's midrange answer to its own GPU problem: the Galaxy A55's chip drops Mali for an AMD-derived Xclipse 530 that Samsung claims is 53% faster than the Exynos 1380's graphics. Four 2.75 GHz Cortex-A78 cores on 4nm handle the rest without drama.

Pros

  • AMD RDNA-based Xclipse 530 GPU
  • 53% GPU uplift over the Exynos 1380
  • Four Cortex-A78 cores at 2.75 GHz
  • Roughly 22% better efficiency than its predecessor

Cons

  • No Armv9 cores
  • Xclipse drivers still trail Adreno for consistency
  • 4K capture limited to 30fps
