Upcoming Samsung Galaxy M16 Outshines Galaxy A16 in Geekbench Performance

Samsung seems to be gearing up to launch its latest budget-friendly M-series smartphone, the Galaxy M16 5G. Positioned as the successor to the Galaxy M15 5G, which debuted earlier in April, the Galaxy M16 is already creating a buzz in the tech community for its impressive Geekbench performance, surpassing the Galaxy A16 in key areas.

Galaxy M16 Geekbench Results

The Galaxy M16 5G, identified by its model number SM-M166P, has posted strong scores on Geekbench:

• Single-core: 552 points
• Multi-core: 1611 points

These numbers outshine the Galaxy A16—which, despite sharing the same Dimensity 6300 chipset, scored 514 and 1464 points in single-core and multi-core tests, respectively. The difference suggests possible software optimizations or enhanced cooling mechanisms in the Galaxy M16.

Additionally, the handset appeared in the Geekbench ML database, recording an AI performance score of 469, indicating advanced AI capabilities.

Expected Features and Specifications

Samsung’s M-series often mirrors the hardware of the A-series, and the Galaxy M16 5G seems to follow this trend. Speculations about its features include:

• Display: 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED with a 90Hz refresh rate
• Camera Setup:
  • Rear: 50MP primary sensor, 5MP ultra-wide, and 2MP macro lens
  • Front: 13MP selfie camera
• Battery: 5000mAh with 25W fast charging
• Chipset: MediaTek Dimensity 6300

The Galaxy M16 is expected to be priced competitively, likely mirroring its predecessor, the Galaxy M15 5G, which launched at ₹12,999 in India.

Software and Updates

While the Galaxy A16 5G promises an impressive six years of OS updates, it remains uncertain whether the Galaxy M16 5G will offer a similar commitment. If it does, it could further boost its appeal among budget-conscious buyers seeking longevity in their devices.

Conclusion

The Galaxy M16 5G looks set to solidify Samsung’s reputation for delivering feature-packed, value-for-money smartphones in the competitive budget segment. With better Geekbench scores and promising hardware, it could become a strong contender in its category.
