Samsung Galaxy S4 may sport a 8 core cpu.
Concept.

Samsung will unveil at the International Solid-State Circuit Conference, February 7-21, 2013 ISSCC, a 28-nm SoC with two quad-core clusters. One cluster runs at 1. 8 GHz, has a 2 MByte L2 cache and is geared for high performance apps; the other runs at 1.2 GHz and is tuned for energy efficiency. 

The chip clearly parallel’s ARM’s description of a big.little architecture using its 32-bit A15 and A7 cores. In October, ARM said the approach is delivering greater than expected benefits and expects it will become widely used in smartphones.

“We expect the Samsung part is the first big.little processor,” said Kevin Krewell, senior analyst with market watcher Linley Group (Mountain View, Calif.). “The A7 cores should be capable of handling most smartphone tasks, with the A15 cores only required for maximum performance needs, like video games,” he said. 

Samsung may pack the two quad-core processor into the Galaxy S4 expected for the MWC 2013 in Barcelona, 25-28 February 2013. Rumours also indicated the device will have a 13 mpxls camera.

Despite whether or not Samsung decides to release any new smartphones this spring, the development of eight-core processors is likely a sign of what’s to come for mobile tech.
