The Galaxy A51 5G and Galaxy A71 5G phones went official in Vietnam back in December 2019. Both phones debuted as first Samsung phones powered by Exynos 980 5G chipset. In some markets, the South Korean company is selling 4G variants of both phones. The company is expected to launch the Galaxy A51 5G and Galaxy A71 5G smartphones in the U.S. Fresh information shared by XDA Developers reveals that the U.S. edition of the Galaxy A71 5G will be driven by Snapdragon 765 SoC.
The Verizon variant of the Galaxy A71 5G has surfaced on the database of the Bluetooth SIG platform. The model number of the device is SM-A716V. The publication revealed after investigating the publicly available database for upcoming devices with online services from Verizon, it could come across “Samsung_a71xq” text. Here, “x” refers to a 5G device and “q” means it is fueled by a Snapdragon chipset.
The Geekbench listing of the U.S. variant of the Galaxy A71 5G has revealed that it is powered by a Qualcomm SoC that has a base frequency of 1.80GHz. Since Qualcomm offers Snapdragon 765 and 765G as the 5G chipset for powering mid-range phones, there is a possibility that the Galaxy A71 5G for the U.S. may include any of the two chipsets. The Verizon variant of the Galaxy A71 5G may come with mmWave support, while the non-Verizon models may lack it.
The publication has claimed that the Verizon and non-Verizon variants of the Galaxy A71 5G may break cover in the U.S. in June or July. The rest of the specs of the A71 5G for the U.S. could be the same as its 5G variant available in other countries.
