The company today announced the launch of a new Exynos 7 series processor. It says that the Exynos 7904 mobile processor has been developed with the need of Indian consumers in mind. The chip will bring enhanced multi-media support and high-end features to mid-range devices.
The Exynos 7904 is already in mass production
Samsung says that the Exynos 7904 will deliver fast octa-core performance for multitasking, nimble web browsing and app launching with less power consumption. It will power advanced mobile experiences in mid-range devices with triple-camera support.
The Exynos 7904 has been built on the 14nm process. It has two Cortex-A73 cores at 1.8GHz and six Cortex-A53 cores at 1.6GHz. It can deliver fast single-core performance with the powerful Cortex-A73 functioning as the “big core.” There's an embedded LTE Cat.12 modem as well.
The chip's image signal processor supports single-camera resolution of up to 32 megapixels. It also supports triple-camera systems with several new features in addition to that. The third camera in a setup can add bokeh effects or take panoramic pictures with wide angles. There's also support for faster FHD at 120 frames-per-second or UHD at 30 frames-per-second of video playback.
It's not going to be long before we see devices powered by this chip arrive in India. Samsung is due to launch its Galaxy M series in the country next week. There's a chance that the Exynos 7904 may kick things off with this lineup.
