Samsung has finally announced the Exynos 1280 chipset which is found in some of its recent Galaxy A midrangers such as the Galaxy A33, Galaxy A53 and Galaxy M33.

Samsung Exynos 1280 Specifications:

  • Process technology: 5 nm EUV
  • PROCESSOR: 2x Cortex-A78 2.4Ghz + 6x Cortex-A55 2.0GHz, 64bit.
  • GPU: Arm Mali-G68
  • AI Engine: AI engine with NPU, 4.3 TOP.
  • Modem: 5G NR Sub-6GHz + 5G NR mmWave 1, 2.55Gbps DL, 1.28Gbps UL, 5G global multi-SIM.
  • Wifi: Dual Band 802.11ac MIMO Wi-Fi (2.4 / 5G).
  • Camera: Single camera up to 108MP, triple camera up to 16MP, 4K video recording and playback at 30fps.
  • Screen: FHD + at 120Hz
  • Memory: LPDDR4x
  • Storage: UFS v2.2
  • Other: Bluetooth 5.2, FM Rx radio, quad constellation multi-signal for GNSS L1 and L5.

The chip is based on Samsung’s 5nm EUV process and features an eight-core CPU consisting of two Cortex-A78 cores along with six energy-efficient Cortex-A55 cores. The GPU side is handled by Arm Mali-G68 and you get both sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G connectivity.

The new SoC is optimized with Fused Multiply-Add (FMA) which should offer better power consumption and battery life. The built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU) offers artificial intelligence features such as scene segmentation, real-time motion analysis, and multi-object surveillance.

Samsung Exynos 1280 chipset officially announced

The Exynos 1280 can handle FHD + displays that refresh up to 120Hz. Its Image Signal Processor (ISP) supports a maximum resolution of up to 108MP and up to three additional 16MP modules. Samsung has also added multi-frame image processing for sharper images with less noise, electronic image stabilization (EIS), and 4K video recording and playback at 30fps.

In terms of connectivity, you get dual-band MIMO 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, and quad constellation multi-signal for L1 and L5 GNSS positioning.
