Samsung has announced a new chipset, the Exynos 1080 for upper mid-range phones. It unveiled the chip at a joint launch with Vivo. It is built on 5nm process with EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography) FinFET technology. Moreover, the Vivo X60 and Vivo X60 Pro will be the first smartphones to be powered by the Exynos 1080 SoC.

Compared to Samsung’s 7nm process, the 5nm processor increases the number of transistors by more than 80 percent. Further, it offers a 7 percent improvement in performance and an 18 percent reduction in power consumption when compared to 7nm DUV (Deep Ultraviolet Lithography).

The Exynos 1080 is an octa-core chipset that comprises of 1+3+4 tri-cluster architecture. It comes with Cortex A78 single-core processor that is clocked at 2.84GHz, Cortex-A78 triple-core processor that ticks at 2.6GHz, and Cortex-A55 quad-core processor clocked at 2.0GHz.

Exynos 1080-powered smartphones can have support for WQHD+ resolution display with up to 90Hz refresh rate or Full HD+ resolution screen with up to 144Hz refresh rate. As for the cameras, it supports up to 200MP single camera or 32MP + 32MP dual-camera setup or a maximum of six cameras. It also supports HDR10+ and 4K 60ffps encoding and decoding with HEVC.

The new SoC includes Mali-G78 MP10 graphics and comes with support for LPDDR4x / LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. It has NSA/SA dual modem for 5G connectivity and supports both sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G spectrums. Further, it comes equipped with connectivity options like Wi-Fi 802.11ax, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, GLONASS, BeiDuo, and Galileo.

The new Qualcomm Snapdragon 875 processor has recently been tested, and its leaked AnTuTu results show that it comes with tons of power. The chipset is codenamed “Lahaina,” and its benchmarks show a score of over 847,000, which is way higher than what we saw with the Snapdragon 865.

The best results reached by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor reached 663,000 points on AnTuTu’s charts. This score was obliterated by the new Snapdragon 875, which, according to these results, is 25 percent faster than its predecessor, but that’s not all. Lahaina has been compared to other processors, and it also makes them bite the dust. For example, Apple’s latest iPhone 12 with the A14 Bionic scored 565,000. The Kirin 9000 and the Exynos 1080 managed to reach 696,000 and 693,000 scores, just enough to surpass the Snapdragon 965, but they still have lots of work to di if they want to catch up to Qualcomm’s new processor.

However, the highest score on AnTuTu’s chart still belongs to the Snapdragon 865 in the IQOO 5 Pro, as the AnTuTu team explains that RAM and storage configurations also influence the final score of a device. Rumors also suggest that OPPO has been testing an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 865, which would go up to around 3.2GHz.

Other test results published by Digital Chat Station show that Qualcomm is keeping the 1+3+4 CPU core layout, with its prime core still running at 2.84GHz. This means that it’s delivering the same speeds as last year, which places it even below the 3.09GHz clock speed of the Snapdragon 865+. However, it still managed to come out on top.

Still, the Snapdragon 875 didn’t surpass Huawei’s Kirin 9000 GPU since this ended up being a battle between the Mali-G78 MP24 and Qualcomm’s custom Adreno GPU. To conclude, the second benchmark scores provided by Master Lu, place the Snapdragon 875 as the best processor, but we will still have to wait some time before we see it launch at the next Qualcomm Tech Summit.
