Enter the Exynos 4 Quad
Samsungs new Galaxy smartphone will be twice as powerful as its predecessor. Thanks to a new chip.
Samsung's new Galaxy S smartphone — rumoured to be introduced next week — is said to house a brand new chip: the Exynos 4 Quad. Based on the ARM Cortex A9, the chip is said to runs at 1.4 gigahertz and is designed to enable 3-D games and 1080p video recording and play-back. Add 4.6-inch display with a 1280-by-720 pixel resolution, as well as an 8-megapixel camera and LTE support and you have a pretty good smartphone, right?
However, the Exynos 4 Quad has one exciting feature that tops all the rest. It has twice the processing capability of its dual-core predecessor, but consumes 20 percent less power. If you believe Samsung that is.
