Samsung Galaxy A18 4G Geekbench Listing

The Geekbench database shows that the Samsung Galaxy A18 4G scored 738 points in the single-core test and 2,025 points in the multi-core benchmark.
The listing also reveals the processor model number MT6789, which is associated with the MediaTek Helio G99 chipset. The processor features six CPU cores clocked at 2.0GHz and two performance cores running at 2.2GHz paired with the Mali-G57 MC2 GPU.
The Geekbench listing also reveals the software version. The Galaxy A18 4G is shown running Android 17, suggesting it could launch with One UI 9 pre-installed.
If this turns out to be accurate, it would become one of Samsung’s first smartphones outside the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8 series to ship with the latest software. Currently, One UI 9 is available in beta for the Galaxy S26 lineup, while the Galaxy S25 series is expected to receive the beta update soon.
Samsung Galaxy A18 4G – What Else We Know?
The smartphone has also appeared on several certification platforms in recent weeks, indicating that its launch is drawing closer. Since the Galaxy A17 4G was introduced in September last year, Samsung could follow a similar schedule for its successor this year. It is also worth noting that the Galaxy A17 4G was not launched in India.
As the Galaxy A18 4G is expected to be a 4G-only smartphone, it is likely to target the affordable segment.
Although Samsung has not officially confirmed the specifications, the Galaxy A18 4G is expected to continue the company’s focus on long-term software support. Notably, the predecessor Galaxy A17 4G was launched with a promise of six Android OS upgrades and six years of security updates.
As Samsung has yet to announce the device officially, more details regarding its specifications, pricing, and availability are expected to emerge in the coming weeks.
