The upcoming Samsung Galaxy A16 5G, expected to be one of Samsung's most affordable next-generation 5G smartphones, has just been tipped to launch with two processor options.

While earlier rumors suggested the A16 5G would feature the updated MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC, new leaks reveal a second version powered by the Exynos 1330, the same processor found in the Galaxy F14 5G. This version, model number SM-A166E, is expected to target markets like Africa and parts of Asia.

Here's a breakdown of the rumored specs:

Version 1 (SM-A166):

  • MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC
  • 6GB RAM
  • Expected to launch in India and potentially other regions

Version 2 (SM-A166E):
