The Exynos 1480 is made up of four Cortex A78 cores at 2.75 GHz and four Cortex A55 cores at 2 GHz. One of the chipset’s highlights is the Xclipse 530 GPU, which has AMD’s RDNA architecture. According to Samsung, graphics performance has been improved by 53% when compared to the previous SoC.
Following the trend of artificial intelligence, the Exynos 1480 has the AI Engine with 6K MAC NPU. Despite being a less powerful version of the one found in the Exynos 2400, it still allows the Galaxy A55 to support the AI features present in the Galaxy S24 line.
In connectivity, there is support for Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 6E, mmWave 5G, cat.18 LTE and 5G sub 6 GHz. In addition, the chipset supports displays with Full HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 144 Hz.
The chipset has the power necessary to process information from a 200 megapixel sensor, one 64 megapixel sensor at 30 FPS and two 32 megapixel sensors at 30 FPS. It can also encode and decode H.264 videos at 4K and 60 FPS without difficulty. Memory and internal storage support LPDDR5 RAM memory and UFS 3.1 internal storage.
Lastly, the Exynos 1480 is manufactured using Samsung’s 4-nanometer 4LPP+ lithography, promising to offer greater energy efficiency compared to its predecessor.
