It seems unusual for the 56U to have a quad-core while the 58U has a tri-core. The differences likely stem from distinct architectural designs rather than cost alone. Check the full specs for details.

The AX58U offers a 160MHz channel width while the AX56U lacks this feature, enabling significantly faster data rates at 5GHz.

That’s reasonable, the 58U really stands out as the top choice, isn’t it?

They're correct, it can be confusing. While ARM Cortex designs aren't identical, some custom components might be added to reduce CPU workload. The 58U uses a faster RAM option compared to the 56U, which has everything integrated. A dedicated WiFi chip is present in the 58U for 5GHz, whereas the 56U includes all features built-in. It's possible there are other areas where the CPU tasks are handled elsewhere.
