A new cheap A series model is under R&D at Samsung’s. We know because there was an update in the Geekbench database before that mentioned the ‘SM-A065F’ serial. IMEI had that same placeholder in the registry. But we didn’t know it was a ‘Samsung Galaxy A06’ until the certification from WiFi Alliance.
Its Geekbench listing was helpful, as it always is. We know now that A06 is not that remarkable. Neither does it plan to be, from the looks of it. It is an all-ordinary, no-fancy-CPU, low RAM model like it always was years ago. A05 had a Helio G85 SoC. And so will the Galaxy A06. That’s what ‘MT6769V/CZ’ means.
That’s that about the processor. But what about the ‘RAM’ then? Geekbench tested the option that had 6 GB memory. And we know the possibilities are open for more or less of it. That and the Android 14 operating system helped it manage some unexpected scores.
All that hardware config we were on about for the Samsung's budget new mobile. Geekbench has it down with some great test results due to it. It scored 1664 points when tested on one core. But all ten cores running in parallel have a potential of 5326 points.
But we also mentioned WiFi Alliance, so here’s a little nugget from that. They are using technology with two bands at 5GHz and 2.4GHz. A Dual band WiFi 5. Anything else is difficult to establish. We were lucky to see these bits of details so early and far from launch.
