Samsung’s Galaxy A16 5G ran Geekbench not once but twice already, with two different chipsets no less – the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 and the Samsung Exynos 1330. And now, through the Chinese 3C certification, we have found out what its battery capacity will be.
Surprising absolutely no one, the Galaxy A16 5G will be rocking a 5,000 mAh cell (certified as 4,860 mAh rated capacity, to be advertised as 5,000 mAh typical capacity). That’s the de facto standard these days for most Android smartphones, so it’s hardly shocking. It’s also the exact same capacity seen in the Galaxy A15 5G.
The Galaxy A16 5G’s two versions, with the two different SoCs, are likely to launch in different markets, though it’s unclear what Samsung is getting out of this strategy. Speculators are speculating that the Exynos variant will be headed to Asia and/or Africa, but nothing is confirmed just yet.
The Galaxy A16 is apparently going to be made official in December, if we go by a recent rumor. So there’s still plenty of time for leaks to reveal all of its specs until then.
