Samsung he never stops working on developing new hardware for his entire range of devices. Now, from the Korean firm they have announced the Exynos 7 Series 9610, a processor dedicated to the upper-middle range that will be launched in 2018.
Exynos 9610: Samsung's processor for the upper-middle range of 2018
Samsung has announced the new Exynos 7 Series 9610, Exynos 9610 To abreviate. This processor will be dedicated to the mid-high range that they put on sale in 2018, and replaces the Exynos 7885 that the Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) and Galaxy A8 Plus (2018) mounted. From Samsung they have wanted to highlight the new construction process of these chips and the ability to bring premium mobile functions to the mid-range.
They speak not only of one better multimedia experience, but also a better image processing to improve the photographs taken with the mobile. They also highlight the possibility of ccapture video in super slow motion at 480 frames per second at 1080p resolution. In the case of preferring 4K, it drops to 120 frames per second. It will also improve image processing in low light conditions, as they want to make this chip perfect for creating and consuming multimedia content.
Other additions refer to the possibility of using 3D facial recognition and, in addition, the possibility of taking pictures in portrait mode using a single lens, either with the rear or front camera. Although dual cameras are very typical nowadays, this path was the one Google took and is likely to be the one taken by most of Samsung's mid-range devices.
The CPU will consist of two groups. The first of Quad Core CorteX-A73 running up to 2.3 GHz, the second, quad Cortex-A53 cores running up to 1.6 GHz. And one GPU Mali-G72, which makes clear Samsung's intentions to continue with its super mid-range, we assume that also in price. We could see it in the future Galaxy A8 of 2019.
When will the Exynos 9610 start production?
These improvements are accompanied by general and more typical ones, such as higher processing speed or more efficient power consumption. It will also offer an improvement in graphics for any video game. The main question that remains then in the air is the production date. Samsung indicates that the Exynos 9610 It will go into production in the second half of this year.
Therefore, by the end of summer we should have more news regarding which will be the first devices that will take advantage of this new processor. Taking into account the nomenclatures, the J line is discarded, and we have to look towards the A line. We do not yet know what numbers they play this year, but it is possible that Samsung will consider Galaxy A9 y Galaxy A9 Plus that are in line with the rest of the high-end Galaxy line. Or maybe the future Galaxy A8s of 2019.
