The Galaxy A35 5G, currently priced at $257.50 on Amazon, has been around for just a little over six months. However, there are already signs that a successor might be on the way, as it has appeared in no less than nine listings on Geekbench. Like always, the benchmarking site does not disclose the device's final retail name or provide any visual details.
### Details on the Galaxy A36 5G
All the Geekbench listings indicate that the Galaxy A36 5G has been tested with 6 GB of RAM. This is probably the lowest RAM option for this model, considering what we know about its predecessor. Furthermore, it looks like Samsung is planning to swap out the Exynos 1380 chip that powers the Galaxy A35 5G for a new chipset from Qualcomm.
### Potential Chipset Options
Once again, Geekbench does not specify which chipset is being used. However, the identifier ARM implementer 65 architecture 8 variant 1 part 3393 revision 2 gives us some hints, along with its CPU layout. It appears that Samsung is choosing among three possibilities, which may include the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, Snapdragon 7 Gen 1, or Snapdragon 7s Gen 3. Unfortunately, it’s still unclear which chipset will actually be included in the Galaxy A36 5G; while the GPU suggests it might be the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 or Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, its CPU setup indicates that the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 could be the one being used.
### Conclusion
In conclusion, the information available suggests that the Galaxy A36 5G is shaping up to be an interesting successor to the Galaxy A35 5G. With its potential new chipset and RAM configurations, fans are eagerly awaiting more details to confirm what this new device will offer.
