Samsung’s New Processor’s Stats Leaked. You Should See The Scores!

Samsung Galaxy S7 may have enough processing power to outdo all other smartphones.

Samsung’s new handset, the Galaxy S7 has been in the news of late. All manners of leaks — wishful and reliable have been bouncing around the internet.

Well, this article may or may not be about the Galaxy S7.

This time around the rumours are about Samsung’s Exynos 8890 processor which scored really crazily high numbers on AnTuTu tests (one of the foremost performance benchmarking tests used for measuring processor performance).

Seated in an unnamed handset with model number SM-G9300 (which is anticipated to be the Galaxy S7), the processor achieved a crazy score of 103662 on the AnTuTu tests.

It would be an understatement to say that the score of 103662 is high, it is way beyond just high. Just for comparision, the latest chip developed by Huawei known as the Kirin 950, scored 65,000 points on the same test, while the Galaxy S6’s processor had a score of 68,830 and the Galaxy S6 edge’s heart had a score of 64,474.

There’s more.

Back in September, the same Exynos 8890 chip broke all records and scored 5,423 points on the muti-core segment and on the single core test it scored 2,456 points, leaving all other chipsets way behind.

This chip produced by Samsung is made using the 14nm FinFET process.

Going by probable speculations, Samsung‘s Galaxy S7 is anticipated to run on Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC in the Chinese and U.S. markets and the new Exynos 8890 in other markets across the globe.
In fact, it’s interesting to note that Samsung is getting an exclusive version of Snapdragon — the Snapdragon 820 has been seen clocking in at different degrees, but we know it can easily go upto 2.2 GHz (which is what is expected to be powering the Galaxy S7).

While all this information is nothing more than conjecture (or a rumour) at present, the mere possibility of this being true is sure to excite Samsung lovers with the Galaxy S7 due for launch in the first quarter of 2016 (which is earlier that previous launches of this family of devices).

Clearly, Samsung believes that by pushing up its launch dates, it can compete with its competitors better.

Samsung’s new beauty will come in two variants — one will sport a 5.2 inch display screen while the other, a 5.7 inch curved screen. Folks are saying the smartphone will also have an iPhone-like pressure sensitivity display.

Samsung has always been popular as it usually includes stuff much beyond people’s expectations and several notches higher than competitors’ devices. We’re hoping that it continues this focus and that it doesn’t disappoint us like it did with the Galaxy S5!
