Samsung truly brought their A-game with the introduction of the the new Exynos chip in hand. The conveniently named, Exynos 8 Octa 8890 or Exynos 8890 for short, was recently unveiled in Seoul, Korea and it looks like its something that can carry out the tradition of the system-wise Exynos chip series.
The Exynos 8890 marks Samsung’s take on custom-built cores. The big.LITTLE build up on the Exynos 8890 features a few quad-core array of the in-house Mongoose 64bit ARMv8 cores, which primarily focuses on the performance cluster, as for the more hardened task, the 8890 has a four other Cortex-A53 cores to handle it.
The Exynos 8890 is said to perform 30% better than older Exynos chips, thanks to something that Samsung calls, Samsung Coherent Interconnect technology or SCI, which primarily focuses in maintaining coherence and consistency from both separate clusters. The chip is also said to be 10% more power efficient, though it doesn’t necessarily mean a true blue increase in the battery’s longevity period. The 8890 features the same GPU as the recently introduced Karin 950 of Huawei, which is a Mali-T880 GPU, while being backed up by twelve cores, which is highly impressive indeed.
The new chip can support display resolution up to 4K UHD WQUXGA, which primarily hints a few possible traits of Samsung’s upcoming flagships (We might see a 4K UHD Galaxy S7? or a new Exynos 8890 empowered Galaxy tab). From now, these are all the known arsenal of the newly introduced Exynos 8890 and who knows, we might actually see more of the Exynos 8890 in a few future prominent Samsung flagship or lineup.
