With the South Korean market in mind, Samsung has introduced the Galaxy Quantum 5, a highly secure variant of the Galaxy A55 smartphone. To improve its online security capabilities, Samsung has integrated a quantum cryptography security chip into the Quantum 5 in partnership with SK Telecom and ID Quantique.

Quantum physics is used by ID Quantique’s Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) device to produce random numbers. QRNGs generate truly random and unexpected numbers, in contrast to ordinary random number generators that are susceptible to outside influences. These numbers are then utilised to encrypt and decrypt private information, such as passwords or biometrics. With the exception of the QRNG chip, the gadget is essentially identical to a Galaxy A55.

Samsung Galaxy Quantum 5 specs:

A 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution is a feature of the Samsung Quantum 5. It has an Android 14 operating system and is powered by the Exynos 1480 chipset with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. An ID Quantique Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) chip powers the apparatus.

A 50MP primary back camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, a 5MP macro camera, and a 32MP front-facing camera make up the phone’s camera configuration. It also has a 5,000mAh battery that can be charged quickly—25 W.

The Quantum 5 is available in three colour options: Awesome Ice Blue, Awesome Lilac, and Awesome Navy, and it costs KRW 618,200 ($465).
