Galaxy A16 5G and MediaTek Dimensity 9400 official, week 41 review

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy A16 5G with 6 years of Android version updates and security patches, a record-breaking for the segment. The Galaxy A16 5G comes in Midnight Blue, Turquoise and Gray colors. The phone is priced at €249 in Europe in 4/128GB trim and shipments are already underway.

We saw images of the display assemblies of the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra, giving us an idea of ​​the front of the lineup. We also saw a render of One UI 7’s new control (command?) center on the Galaxy S25 Ultra.

MediaTek announces flagship 3nm Dimensity 9400 SoC. It is built on TSMC’s 3nm N3E node, has a Cortex-X925 prime core clocked at up to 3.63GHz, and three Cortex-X4s clocked at 3.3GHz. The GPU is the Immortalis-G925, which was announced earlier this year. It runs at a 1612 MHz frequency, which promises 41% performance improvement, 40% faster ray tracing performance, and 44% power savings. The AI ​​is handled by the NPU 890, which should consume 35% less energy than its predecessor. MediaTek is already shipping Dimensity 9400 chips to OEMs. We expect to see the flagship platform in the Oppo Find X8 and Vivo X200 series this month.
