According to Samsung, it’s been seeing increasing demand for mobile processors that can deliver high-end graphics processing. The company’s latest Exynos 5 will deliver that, but will also cut down on power consumption, according to Samsung.
The octa-core processor from Samsung has been around for months, but it’s been available in just a few of the company’s products. The Samsung Galaxy S4 is arguably the most notable Exynos 5-based device, but that’s been extremely hard to come by in North America.
Samsung has not said what products might be running its updated Exynos 5 Octa, but the company is currently sampling it to customers. Mass production on the Exynos 5 is slated to begin in August.
