Samsung Exynos 1610
The Samsung Exynos 1610 is a budget LTE chipset that debuted in the Galaxy A18 4G in September 2026, replacing the MediaTek Helio G99 in Samsung's 4G A-series. Samsung has disclosed little about it: two performance cores at up to 2.4GHz, six Cortex-A55 cores and a Mali-G68 GPU, with no 5G modem.
Pros
- Gives Samsung its own silicon in a budget tier long dominated by MediaTek's Helio G-series chips
- Efficient 2+6 core layout, with the performance cluster clocked up to 2.4GHz
- Mali-G68 GPU, a newer design than the Helio G99's Mali-G57
Cons
- LTE only — no 5G modem, unlike some competing mid-range chipsets
- Samsung has disclosed very little technical detail about the chip, including the exact CPU core model and manufacturing process
- So far launched only in France, Norway, and Sweden
Awaiting benchmarks
No Inno Score yet: CPU and GPU still need a published benchmark result.
