South Korean tech giant Samsung has now officially announced its Exynos 1280 chipset which has already been deployed in some Galaxy smartphones. The Exynos 1280 powers the Galaxy A33, Galaxy A53, and Galaxy M33 mid-range smartphones.

The Exynos 1280 is produced from the 5nm EUV process. It has 2 Cortex-A78 which clock at 2.4GHz and 6 Cortex-A55 at 2.0GHz. The CPU is 64-bit, while its GPU is Arm Mali-G68. The AI engine comes with an onboard neural processing unit (NPU) 4.3 TOPS. The Exynos 1280 has a 5G modem and supports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. The specs also include a 108MP camera, 16MP triple camera setup, and 4K video recording. The display is FHD+ with a 120Hz display refresh rate.

Power consumption and battery life are also enhanced with the new chipset due to its efficient setup. The multi-frame image processing capabilities of the Exynos 1280 provide clearer images with less noise. The chipset has already debuted in some Samsung Galaxy mid-rangers and other brands may tap it into their architecture.

Samsung is expected to launch a couple of M-series phones soon in different markets. The Galaxy M23 and M33 are two of the phones riffed to release soon. Now, MySmartPrice has revealed the launch timeline of the latter model, the Samsung Galaxy M33.

With the recent Bluetooth certification for the Samsung Galaxy M33 5G, we may not be too far off from the eventual launch of the Galaxy M33 5G. The Bluetooth certification has moved the product a step further in its evolution from an R&D item to a commercial product. The model specification of the Galaxy M33 5G device that got Bluetooth certified is SM-M336B_DS. The model specification indicates that the device will have a dual-SIM setup.

Although there are several details still not known about the Galaxy M33 5G, we now know that it will support Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. It is unclear whether it is the same Galaxy M33 5G model that was spotted in Geekbench recently. The Geekbench model number was SM-M336BU, and the device was powered by an Exynos 1200 chipset in addition to 6GB RAM. The Geekbench listing also showed that the model will run on Android 12 out of the box.

There are no words from Samsung yet on a possible release of the Galaxy M33 5G at this time. If indeed the device is on the lineup for the unveiling, then more details will pop out in the coming weeks.

Earlier, Samsung was expected to launch the Galaxy M33 5G in India soon as the phone started getting manufactured locally at the Greater Noida Factory in the region. Now, the tipster Mukul Sharma reveals that the phone’s launch may not be too far for India, and it could be as early as next month.

Mukul said that if things move as planned for the company, then we might see the Galaxy M33 5G by the end of February. Unfortunately, the tipster doesn’t reveal an exact launch date.

Apart from this, the smartphone has already passed a few certification sites, and thus, we know some of its specifications. The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G carries the model number SM-M336BU/DS. As per SafetyKorea, the phone packs a big 6,000mAh battery. On top of this, we expect some sort of fast charging support.

Furthermore, the Geekbench listing revealed that the device is powered by the unannounced Exynos 1200 SoC. It will have 6GB of RAM, which we expect to be the base configuration. It will boot on Android 12 OS out of the box. That being said, the handset should arrive with One UI 4.

Since it will be a superior model of the currently available Galaxy M32 5G, we can expect a high refresh rate AMOLED panel and dual-SIM support. The device may also come with up to 25W fast charging support but do note that Samsung is currently infamous for not providing the maximum supported fast charging adapter in the box. So we may see a 15W fast charging adapter as usual.

Samsung seems to be prepping to launch the Galaxy M33 soon, as the phone had earlier appeared on listings like BIS, SafetyKorea, and Geekbench, and now, a new report sheds light on its production.

As per 91Mobiles, Samsung has officially started the production of the upcoming Galaxy M33 5G in India. The publication cites that the smartphone’s production has begun in Samsung’s Greater Noida factory in the country. It means that the phone could soon debut in the Indian market.

The M33 that has a model number SM-M336BU/DS had previously bagged a few certifications through which some of its key specs were revealed. It is expected to come powered by the unannounced Exynos 1200 SoC. The device will have 6GB of RAM and boot on Android 12 OS out of the box.

The SafetyKorea certification revealed that the device will house a monster 6,000mAh battery. As of now, this is what we have learned, however, considering that it will be succeeding to the Galaxy M32 5G, we can expect a few upgrades.

The phone may come with an AMOLED display with a higher refresh rate. Remember, the Galaxy M32 5G has a 90Hz AMOLED screen. The device is expected to come with dual-SIM support in India and may have 25W fast charging support. Just like the M32 5G, it may as well come with a quad-camera setup.
