Samsung Electronics has introduced its newest application processor for mid-range devices – the Exynos 9610. The Exynos 7 Series 9610 processor succeeds last year’s Exynos 7 Series 7885 which powered mid-tier devices such as the Galaxy A8 and Galaxy A8+, and will processes images 1.6 times faster.
Built on Samsung’s 10nm FinFET process (a first for this series), the Exynos 9610 will deliver premium-level features such as slow motion recording in Full HD (1080p) at up to 480 fps (frame per second) and improves both photo-taking and filming experiences using a built-in neural network engine for features such as advanced face detection, single camera out-focusing and augmented low-light images.
The chipset has an octa-core CPU that includes four Cortex-A73 cores clocked at 2.3GHz and four Cortex-A53 cores clocked at 1.6GHz. It supports up to WQXGA (2560×1600) display, features ARM Mali-G72 MP3 GPU and comes with a built-in LTE modem that supports 600Mbps for downlink with 3CA and 150Mbps for uplink with 2CA.
Other connectivity features include Bluetooth 5.0, FM radio, 802.11ac 2×2 MIMO Wi-Fi and 4-mode global navigation satellite system (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo). The Samsung Exynos 9610 is expected to enter mass production in Q2 2018.
