samsung exynos 5

Back in November of last year, Samsung announced that they’re working on a powerful dual-core SoC intended for high-end tablets called Exynos 5250. After more than half a year, the South Korean company unveils the said SoC and changed its name to Exynos 5 Dual. The Exynos 5 Dual isn’t your typical dual-core processor; it's actually the first SoC to make use of and integrate two Cortex-A15 cores with enhanced VFP and Neon coprocessor. As you can see on the graph, the performance is more than double than the previous Exynos. Samsung addressed this by integrating a low-power eDP Version 1.3 (electronic Display Port) with PSR (Panel Self-Refresh) to the Exynos 5 Dual. Another notable feature of the Exynos 5 Dual is that it will have SATA III and USB 3.0 DRD functionality, which validates our prediction back in January. Samsung also included an Image Signal Processor in the Exynos 5 Dual which would enhance the image quality of the devices. The Samsung Exynos 5 Dual is certainly a force to be reckoned with in the SoC arena. Read more in our articles including "Samsung unveils Exynos 5 Dual" and "OnePlus Watch Lite now official".
