Wow what an underpowered GPU
No wonder this chip is barely used by most Smartphone companies

The geekbench GPU scores of A36 implies that the chip its gonna use is 7 gen 1 here (GPU indicates it potentially being 7s gen 3).
7 gen 1 is the chip that makes the most sense as Samsung have been following 15% power increase in their A3X series for the past 2 generations (theybare trying to widen the power gap between A5X) and a 3 year old Snapdragon chip would be suitable to appear on a midrange.
My worries about this chip is that its manufactured by Samsung which is known to have poor efficiency and bad thermals (Snapdragon 888 and 8 gen 1 was heating dreadfully because if Samsung fabrication) and it being a 3 year old chip also raises some doubts about if it being up to date.
This is funnilly one of those cases where I would prefer an Exynos chip, 1480 instead of this one for the more modern and "somewhat" fixed structure of Samsung manufacturing. Unlike 8 gen 1, it's hard to find any heat test video about this chip so we'll see how this one will fare against Exynos 1580 on the new A56 unless they mess up something with it and decide to not release the chip at all this year just like how they did it with Exynos 2300 lol.
One utopical scenario is that, the 7s gen 3 appearing in the new A36. The unlikeliness of its is due to it being too modern to appear on a A3X series as for the past 2 generations they have been consistenly using a year old chip. The other reason is Snapdragon sky rockets the price of the Samsung phones and A36 is not in a price bracket like that (A56 can actually have it but Samsung has to shove their new Exynos 1580 to our throaths with that one).
The final unlikelyness is because a snapdragon chip will endanger a more expensive Exynos using phones reputation as Samsung chip sets, despite having better values on paper, can perform visibilly worse in practice. 1580 is expected to score at least 930K and very like to hit 1 million (essentially will be a modern snapdragon 888 but with a worse GPU). 7s gen 3 has 750K which is not too close close to the first value I have mentioned but you never know what Samsung s capable at. But with 1 million points and the newer Samsung chip fabrication I actually believe Samsung can pull up a superior chip and like that we can see 7s gen 1 on A36... almost. There is one reason left for us to still may not be able to see the 7s gen 1 which is the Snapdragon brand recognition + the hate for the Exynos chips.
Anyway, shit happens, we'll see whatsup. Thanks for attending to my Tedtalk about the over analysed odds of a chipset making up to a midranger smart phone. See you next time when I verbally orient my abhor to some Exynos chipsets as the world would have been a better place with no I hate and I enjoy keeping it a horrible place.

In what world are you living in bro, go around touch some grass and about samsung , it will likely to follow their new pattern of s24 fe and will rather release exynos 1480E like the exynos 2400E for the samsung a36 likely

No chance they will use 7 gen 1 or 7s gen 3.
It has been confirmed A36 will use 6 gen 3

Wrong ! Snapdragon 7 gen 1 has a Adreno 644 GPU clock of 660 MHz according to Wikipedia!
