Samsung Exynos 8 8890

이런거 보면 삼성 진짜 대단하단 생각이 듭니다. 어마어마한 돈도 투자하고 엔지니어들고 갈아 넣었겠지만, 쉽지 않았지만 이제 세계 선두권에서 경쟁할수 있다고 봐도 될정도입니다.

첫번째 삼성의 custom ARM Core가 될테고요. custom core를 design할수 있는 회사는 애플, 퀄컴, 삼성 말고는 없습니다.

GPU는 ARM의 Mali T-880

Modem도 LTE Rel.12 Cat.12/13 지원으로 어디에도 꿀리지 않을것 같고

지역에 따라 어떤 모델은 퀄컴 S820(MSM8996)이 쓰일텐데 1대1 benchmark에서도 10-15% 우위에 있을것으로 생각이 됩니다. 1월에 출시되면 다이다이로 밴치마크가 빨리 올라오면 좋겠네요.

GPU도 좀더 차별화하고 강화하려면 AMD를 사던지 하면 좋겠네요.

Like the Snapdragon 820, the new Exynos offering will also integrate the latest LTE tech - meaning download speeds of up to 600Mbps. Perfect for streaming 4K on the divine display the Galaxy S7 will likely be toting.

Talking of the 820, the side-by-side performance of the two next-gen chips is the real story here. With the (in)famous Samsung split from Snapdragon for the Galaxy S6, how the 820 holds up alongside the Exynos 8890 could be pivotal for Qualcomm.

As per this list the Galaxy S7 (SM-G930) and the Galaxy S7 edge (SM-G935) will be available with either the Snapdragon or Exynos processor depending upon markets and wireless carriers. The Snapdragon 820 powered models are listed for China (SM-G9300, SM-G9350), Verizon (SM-G930V, SM-G935V), Sprint (SM-G930P, SM-G935P) and US Cellular (SM-G930R4, SM-G935R4). It’s interesting to note that all of these are apparently destined for CDMA carriers.
