The next processor released by Samsung under the Exynos name feature its own custom cores. The latest report published out of China claims that the company will shift away from Cortex A72 cores in favor of its own creation. The upcoming processor is known internally as “Mongoose” and will be clocked at 2.3GHz. Performance of a single core on Mongoose is said to be considerably better than the current Exynos 7420.
This is not the first time we heard of such plans about Samsung and its processors. In 2013, there was a report that the custom cores in its processors would arrive the following year. That never happened and a few weeks ago a report matching today’s surfaced. Chances are we see Mongoose debut sometime in 2016.
