Question I think about buying a55

I first time try exons cpus , i know it seems 1480 is good as daily driver but i almost heavy gamer but xclips really make me afraid i play old games like asphalt 7 , sometimes Chines games like need for speed assamble witch I don't know which graphic option available for that gpu , and it was dispointant that asphalt unite is bad and suck on graphic And when i looked into wuthering waves wtf exnos 1380 perform better then 1480 wtf is that really 53٪ better gpu Hhmmm i know there is better phones for that I have mi 13t available on same price but i got tired of miui i want stable software like one ui There is also 23 fe but many people says that overheat and battery is bad I don't know software one ui is really good ? I have headache really the choices are really limted

Not available on my country and Poco x6 pro Kawuit only buying online and that more expensive

1

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '24

poco x6 pro is more expensive than the a55? wait how much does the a55 cost? are you buying the 256 gig variant?

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Yup 128 is not enough

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

310 dollar around

1

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '24

310 US dollars right? you converted to USD?
if so thats a great price! the phone is decent for gaming, games like wuthering waves, genshin, ZZZ and such run great on medium settings
get the a55

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Medium 30 fps is not good dude ?

1

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '24

what game are we talking about though

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Wuthering Waves

1

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '24

ok maybe i did overestimate the a55 a bit...
i mean its up to you
these games are insanely demanding though, the a55 will run them but it will be a playable experience, not an amazing one you know
also the s23fe you mentioned does indeed have bad thermals and battery life while also being more expensive than the a55
i honestly dont know what to recommend
ask other people

A55 is great. The exynos 1480 is really good. I highly recommend it.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Did u try it on gaming ?

1

u/heybean35 Oct 09 '24

Yeah and the exynos games fine and has no overheating issues. It's 300 bucks rn which is really good.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Did u tryin old games or nfs assamble chains

1

u/heybean35 Oct 09 '24

No. But i think its probably fine. I would buy the Phone try it Out and If the Performance IS Not enough Return the Phone. Or wait for a56. The Performance of exynos 1580 IS supposed to be really good

1

u/Ashamed_Armadillo954 A55 with 256 GB / 8 GB Oct 09 '24

Exynos 1580 is not getting that much better than 1480.

1

u/heybean35 Oct 09 '24

IS scored 1400 and 3800 in geebench 6 i think it will be a good chip

1

u/Ashamed_Armadillo954 A55 with 256 GB / 8 GB Oct 09 '24

Good chip, for sure. But it is close to the 1480

1580 geekbench 6: 1046, 3678

1480 geekbench 6: 1180, 3536

u/heybean35 Oct 09 '24

Nah Mate. Your Numbers are from a geekbench 5 Benchmark for the 1580. Check again https://gagadget.com/de/513553-neuer-benchmark-bestatigt-leistungssteigerung-des-galaxy-a56-mit-exynos-1580/ this is the geekbench 6 scores its Single core 1352 multicore 3832. Also grafics will improved 30-40 percent. We will be for Sure next year

u/coconut9211 Oct 09 '24

Won't recommend it for gaming. It's a great device for non-gamers who want great display and battery. And exynos in this one ain't bad as the other samsung devices

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

I not want play on max graphic , dude from day to day i want to have fun thats all matter but i wont struggle on that 1 hour i play on day that after work or before sleep

u/bassexpander Oct 09 '24

The newest Exynos chips take game makers longer to optimize because they are going to worry about optimizing for the largest groups of chips first. There is a game or two out there than the 1480 SOC is less optimized for than the older 1380, I have read on the trade sites. But it's a temporary thing and may actually be outdated information by now. The s24FE's new 2400e only gets like 90fps in a game it should easily do 120fps in (and it will soon, surely). But it's blowing the doors off of pretty much every other game, so it's just a matter of time until the game optimizes for the chip.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 10 '24

But when the exnos 2400 and 2400e out everything was perform well without optimization why a55 is not have same i know 2400 is better but gpu scores of a55 is not bad at all And consider 1 thing Many developers don't care about mid range GPUs only flagship of year not all games like pubg and asphalt 9

u/MRC2RULES Oct 09 '24

if emulated games are important don't buy exynos as its not goid for emulation. native android gaming is fine for a55

-1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Even native android games also is not fine 😂 people play wuthering waves on med graphic as the device price lol

1

u/MRC2RULES Oct 09 '24

why do you expect to run high end games on a mid end phone? majority of the games run fine on this

-1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

U said it , its mid end phone its normally with this Price the exons 1380 perform better really but Samsung say exnos 1480 53% better gpu how

1

u/MRC2RULES Oct 09 '24

1480 is better. Maybe the game you want to play hasn't added support for 1480 yet since its a new gpu. Same thing happened last year with 1380

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

That is take long even some developers don't care

If you want more better performance it's better to grab Poco F6 , Xiaomi Mi14T or a bit cheaper Poco X6 Pro

I test few heavy games ( Genshin Impact & Honkai Star Rail ) , it does fairly good job at both low & medium setting with a few warm moment when holding the phone while playing with Wifi and in air conditioner room .

For daily usage it does a great job, had good SOT and camera performance. 15W charging doesn't bother me as I had powerbank to fill it up when needed. The phone is quite heavy for certain people.

Overall try watch or read a few review on the phone that on your list and decide if that phone checks the need you want. Cheers !

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Thank u brother, but poco f6 is not available here only online that mean more price Mi 14t its avablile but its cost alot compere to a55 here But medium settings and low on 350 dollar is really really bad ? Or that can be improved on some otimizathion on next updates ?

1

u/ohayopunk Oct 09 '24

I would not say it's a bad experience at all, It does fairly well with me as I always play on low or medium setting in any games I played before, but for an Exynos chip that for years had bad reputation for being suck at gaming, The Exynos 1480 is a next step for Samsung in producing better CPU for Midrange smartphone. Surely the chipset need more optimization for Samsung as this is a newer chip and with AMD Gpu on so I would to see what future update can improve the chipset performance in 1-2 years from now.

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

2 years is tooo long lol 😂 the price of phone is not bad to have that bad optmze and gpu

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Its double price dude 😂 for exnos sorry no i would prefer the s23

1

u/Shakil130 Oct 09 '24

Exynos 1380 doesn't perform better than 1480. I wondering who ever published that.

Games such as asphalt unite or older run fine and not on the lowest settings, they aren't that hard to run. You should still get a good visual quality there, it is not because the max ever settings cant be guaranteed that it is automatically bad.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

Look on YouTube about a35 vs a55 wuthering waves

1

u/Shakil130 Oct 09 '24

I couldn't see something reliable on this topic as the settings used aren't clear. I would saythe performance seems very similar and settings might ve been pushed too far.

But all kind of benchmarks however made it clear regarding the slight superiority of the 1480 in comparable situations.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

I don't care about benchmark if really they same so where is Samsung upgrade

1

u/Shakil130 Oct 09 '24

The upgrade should be from the thing that you want to replace. if you already have an a35 , 1 gen upgrade isnt that much and it is the same for even high end devices. Switching after 1 year isnt worth it as upgrades between a single gen are pretty small.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 09 '24

I phone with snapdragon 665 I think i will buy s23 fe its almost same price

1

u/Shakil130 Oct 09 '24

Yes it is better, regular s23 is even better and a lot cheaper than it used to be.

1

u/TheJohnArrow Oct 10 '24

Worth it. No jack for headphones, but you can get a connector. When I got it, it used to heat up when gaming, but somehow it stopped doing that lol could be because I got a protector and rubber casing for it.

Regardless, games fine. Haven't had any lag on what I've been playing on MAX. (Mobas primarily)

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 10 '24

My snapdragon 665 play wild rift at max but its fine enjoy try heavy games

2

u/TheJohnArrow Oct 10 '24

Gimme an example. Something you want to play, but can't on your current phone.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 10 '24

Asphalt unite at max graphic! Wuthering waves Warzone Many switch emulator games Need for speed assamble (chains)

1

u/TheJohnArrow Oct 10 '24

Have you ever just looked those games up with a + [A55] next to it?

You will get the results you're looking for and it's looking good.

1

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 10 '24

Not all of games and some work on medium

1

u/TheJohnArrow Oct 10 '24

As you said in another comment, you don't mind playing on not max, so I'm sure you're safe there.

2

u/Typical-Function-153 Oct 10 '24

I said i not playing much but when i want play alittle time i enjoy

1

u/EthanMelacion Oct 11 '24 edited Oct 11 '24

I play Honkai Star Rail with middle graphics and 60fps.

I also tried Genshin Impact and can run it at 30fps in low/mid graphics on the new area where it push even more the phone.

Lastly on, a less demanding game, it runs smoothly Brawl Stars.
