Galaxy S IV: First Commercial and Performance Tests

tests

As we have already reported, two versions of the new Samsung Galaxy S IV flagship smartphone from Samsung will be available for sale. One version will offer a Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor — it will be sold in the US, for example — and the second, international, version will get an eight-core Samsung Exynos 5 Octa. This is done because Qualcomm (the manufacturer of Snapdragon 600) integrates LTE support directly into its crystals and tests them directly under the conditions of the networks of US carriers.

In turn, Snapdragon 600 has a lot more power than what is required by current Android applications. Quadrant tests show a score of 12,000 points, which is quite an impressive figure. Much more interesting is Exynos 5 Octa, whose frequencies in the Samsung Galaxy S IV were limited to 1.6 GHz. The crystal uses the ARM big.LITTLE architecture and combines four low-powered Cortex-A7 cores that are responsible for operating the device in standby and navigation, as well as four Cortex-A15 cores, which are included when you need to perform heavy tasks like games, watching movies and web surfing. Technically, the processor is not in vain called eight-core, but in reality these eight cores never work at the same time. Four cores of the PowerVR SGX544 graphics chip complete the picture, which, in combination with Exynos 5 Octa, shows simply amazing performance results.
