Samsung Galaxy A14 5G appears on Google Play Console with Exynos 1330 details

The Samsung Galaxy A14 5G has surfaced yet again, this time appearing on the Google Play Console. The Console confirmed some specs about the display, but more importantly, it details the chipset – the Exynos 1330.

This chip (Samsung S5E8535) has two Cortex-A78 cores running at 2.4GHz and six A55 cores at 2.0GHz. For graphics, there is the Mali-G68 at 950MHz. The table below shows how this compares against something like the Exynos 1280 that was used in certain 2022 A and M series phones, as well as the Dimensity 700.

Why the Dimensity 700? Based on Geekbench results at least some Galaxy A14 versions will be powered by the MediaTek chip instead of Samsung’s own. The Dimensity 700 is currently featured on the Galaxy A13 5G, while the A13 4G uses the Exynos 850 (which only has an LTE modem).

Exynos 850 Exynos 1280 Exynos 1330 Dimensity 700
Node 8nm (Samsung) 5nm (Samsung) ? 7nm (TSMC)
CPU (big) - 2x Cortex-A78 @ 2.4GHz 2x Cortex-A78 @ 2.4GHz 2x Cortex-A76 @ 2.2GHz
CPU (little) 8x Cortex-A55 @ 2.0GHz 6x Cortex-A55 @ 2.0GHz 6x Cortex-A55 @ 2.0GHz 6x Cortex-A55 @ 2.0GHz
GPU Mali-G52 MP1 Mali-G68 MP4 @ 1,000MHz Mali-G68 @ 950MHz Mali-G57 MC3 @ 850MHz

By the way, the Exynos 1330 will probably be used for the Galaxy M15 5G as well, we’ve seen Geekbench scores from that phone too – and from the Exynos version of the A13 5G. Both versions of the A13 5G, as well as the M13 5G, had 4GB of RAM (there might be higher capacity models, they just weren’t tested).

Samsung is also preparing a more powerful Exynos 1380. From what we’ve heard that one will use a Mali-G615 GPU based on ARM’s latest graphics architecture.

Going back to the phone itself, the Samsung Galaxy A14 5G will be quite large, featuring a 6.8” LCD (with FHD+ resolution, as confirmed by the GPC). A leaked image revealed its design, showing a triple camera on the back starring a 50MP main camera, as well as a 13MP selfie camera notched into the front. The phone will be equipped with a beefy 5,000mAh battery.

The official support page for the Galaxy A14 5G went live a couple of days ago, which is normally one of the last steps before the official announcement. The A-series tends to get a group announcement towards the end of the year, so we should see a few others launch in the coming weeks too.

We haven’t heard anything about a 4G version of the Galaxy A14 and there might not be one – the Exynos 1330 is supposed to be a replacement for the Exynos 850, so this may be Samsung waving goodbye to LTE.
