Samsung Galaxy S8 Showdown: Exynos 8895 vs. Snapdragon 835, Performance & Battery Life Tested
CPU Performance Before we evaluate the Galaxy S8’s system-level performance and battery life, we’ll run some lower-level tests to examine CPU integer and floating-point IPC and memory system throughput and latency. The first test will be SPECint2000, the integer component of the SPEC CPU2000 benchmark developed by the Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation. This collection of… → Read More
Samsung Galaxy S8 Showdown: Exynos 8895 vs. Snapdragon 835, Performance & Battery Life Tested
The Samsung Galaxy S8’s headline features are its edge-to-edge Infinity Display and striking new design. Of course it still comes packed with the latest hardware and technology like previous Galaxy phones, including iris recognition, wireless charging, and a flagship SoC. Actually, there are two different SoCs for the S8 and S8+. Most regions around the world will get Samsung's Exynos 8895,… → Read More

Exploring DynamIQ and ARM’s New CPUs: Cortex-A75, Cortex-A55
Cortex-A75 Microarchitecture The Cortex-A75 is the newest member of ARM’s Sophia family of CPUs, which also includes the A73, A17, and A12. It’s no surprise then that the A75 and A73 have much in common just like the A72 and A57 before them (both of which belong to the Austin CPU family); however, ARM’s focus has shifted from improving power efficiency and thermal headroom for A73 to improving… → Read More
Exploring DynamIQ and ARM’s New CPUs: Cortex-A75, Cortex-A55
DynamIQ Before we discuss the new CPUs, we need to discuss DynamIQ. Introduced 5 years ago, ARM’s original big.LITTLE (bL) technology, which allows multiple clusters of up to 4 CPUs to be chained together, has been massively successful in the marketplace, allowing various combinations of its Cortex-A family of CPUs to power mobile devices ranging from the budget-friendly with no frills to the… → Read More
Exploring DynamIQ and ARM’s New CPUs: Cortex-A75, Cortex-A55
ARM moves at an aggressive pace, pushing out new processor IP on a yearly cadence. It needs to move fast partly because it has so many partners across so many industries to keep happy and partly because it needs to keep up with the technology its IP comes into contact with, everything from new process nodes to higher quality displays to artificial intelligence. To keep pace, ARM keeps multiple… → Read More
Exploring DynamIQ and ARM’s New CPUs: Cortex-A75, Cortex-A55
Cortex-A55 Microarchitecture The Cortex-A55 is the next CPU microarchitecture in ARM’s Cambridge family of low-power, small-footprint cores, which also include the A5, A7, and A53. This new little core is an evolution of the A53, so the two cores share much in common. Using the A53 as the starting point makes sense—it has proven to be a successful design—but as the big cores evolved over time,… → Read More
