We are currently seeing a pattern of the new A5X reaching a 4-year-old flagship from Samsung. This happened with A52, A53, and A54 and presumably will with A56 too, as it comes with an SD 888 equivalent CPU but with better manufacturing tech. The new chip will be an Exynos chip instead of TSMC though, so we will see if Samsung's 4 years of development on chip manufacturing carried them anywhere.

First i thought this was just a copy of A54 but actually im suprised by the antutu score, better than iPhone XS Max and S10 Plus combined Almost iPhone 11’s performance, how impressive!

It has Unified Shaders: Texture Mapping Units: Render Output Units: Ray Accelerators and Workgroup Processor (WGP) in the ratio of 128:8:8:2, respectively. That means it has a total of 128+8+8+2=146 units. It seems the number of shader units is only 128, but it is based on the newly developed RDNA Technology. You can check it out here: #https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exynos.

Is the sound of 91dB loud enough? Has anyone tried it? Does it give the feeling of stereo? I mean, the sound comes from the top and the bottom of the phone at the same time.

Yes 91DB is enough but the minimum best sound is 85DB or maybe 83DB so 91DB is even better

Hello friends, I checked the Xclipse 530 graphics used in A55 and, according to my prediction, this graphics should have a power output of 998 GFLOPS. At first glance, it may seem like a very good number and we might assume it has the same power as the Adreno 640. But, this is not the case. This power is due to the increase in the frequency of the GPU. With the increase in the GPU's frequency, the temperature of the phone rises significantly and the life of the phone's hardware decreases. Now, in the Adreno 640, our frequency is 0.675 GHz and the reason for its high power is that it has 768 shaders. On the other hand, the Xclipse 530 has increased the frequency instead of doubling the number of shaders. This results in equal power, but a higher temperature than the Adreno 640!

I'm sorry, friends, I forgot to tell the complete information of A55! This phone has 128 shaders for each executive unit. If we check the Xclipse Exynos graphics, they all have 3 executive units, and according to my prediction, it is very likely that the Xclipse 530 also has 3 executive units! The result of this prediction is that Xclipse 530 has a total of 384 shaders with a frequency of 1.3GHz!

The A55 will have a score exceeding 778k on AnTuTu! Coupled with the game performance from Samsung's Game Launcher, it should even reach an 800k score!

Please correct some data that may be inaccurate. The AnTuTu score for the A55 is 778k+ not 703k. Activate alternative game performance from the Samsung game launcher so that the performance is even better.
