You know how you see an actor promoting his new movie on the Tonight Show, and then the next night he's on with Stephen Colbert? This is similar to what we see with upcoming smartphones and benchmark tests. Before a phone is unveiled, we usually see it run through as many as three benchmark tests. Geekbench checks out the performance of the processors being used on a device. AnTuTu, which claims to the most popular, checks "all aspects" of a handset's performance. GFXBench scores the graphics capability of these units.
The Samsung Galaxy A3 (2017) already appeared on GFXBench back in September, and today we have the handset's Geekbench information. The SM-A320F carried an Exynos 7870 chipset under the hood. The octa-core CPU was clocked at 1.59GHz for the test. There was 2GB of RAM inside and Android 6.0.1 was installed.
The Galaxy A3 (2017) posted a single-core score of 751 and a multi-core score of 4071. The latest rumored specs include a 4.7-inch display with a 720 x 1280 (HD) resolution. The Exynos 7870 chipset powered up Sammy's last generation of high-end Galaxy devices, and includes a Mali-T830 GPU. 8GB of internal storage is included and the camera combo from back to front weighs in at 12MP/8MP.
Considering that the Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) was unveiled last December, we could see the sequel introduced later this month or early next month.
