Over the past four years, Samsung has released Galaxy Quantum series smartphones in South Korea. These are more secure versions of the company's existing higher mid-range phones. This year, the company will release the Galaxy Quantum 5, and it is based on the Galaxy A55.
Galaxy Quantum 5 has a quantum security chip and Exynos 1480
Samsung will reportedly launch the Galaxy Quantum 5 in South Korea in the third quarter of this year. According to a report from ETNews, the upcoming smartphone has a 6.6-inch Super AMOLED Infinity O screen, the Exynos 1480 processor, 8GB RAM, 128GB storage, a 32MP front-facing camera, and a 5,000mAh battery.
The Exynos 1480 chip makes the Galaxy Quantum 5 a lot more powerful than its predecessor.
The phone reportedly has the same dimensions (161.1 × 77.4 × 8.2mm) and weight (213g) as the Galaxy A55. It is said to launch with Android 14 onboard. The Galaxy Quantum 5 received the radio certification on May 8 this year and is expected to be launched in August or September.
What is special about Galaxy Quantum phones?
Like previous-generation Galaxy Quantum series phones, the Galaxy Quantum 5 will reportedly feature a Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) security chip.
It is a special chip that uses a random number based on the number of photons emitted by a generic light source that fluctuates around a certain mean value. This creates truly random data for cryptographic keys, making it almost impossible to crack. This higher security is used in banking, payment, and other apps that need high security.
