The Qualcomm Snapdragon 875 might have a secret weapon against the Samung Exynos 2100: ARM's latest X1 cores

[Redaktion]

Tipster @UniverseIce claims that only Qualcomm's Snapdragon 875 will be utilizing ARM's high-performance X1 cores this generation. This is bad news for Samsung fans, as it means that the Exynos 2100 might fall behind considerably in single-threaded performance.

About 10-15%, over A78, not a lot for a lot more area. It ultimately could depend on other factors but what's concerning for Samsung is they don't have a good track record over there either.

Is there any reason to get Exynos? Mediatek's Dimensity is much better!

[kim bridge]

I thought the new exynos was using the x1 as well

I don't care the performance of CPU anymore. Mid tier CPU's already have enough performance for everything. I need better battery life, cool running etc. After all i will not run Cinebench or Blender on my phone

but cant they just stop using the pathetic exynos on their costy phones?

I'm wondering why could Qualcomm has a secret weapon with 875?
I don't know if you know, that Samsung is producing both the chipsets.
Exynos & Qualcomm's 😄

Except mediatek, huawei and apple all other chip manufacturers have access to x1 cores.., in the recent benchmark Samsung's 2100 scores more than sd 875.

Does anyone know if the 875 will feature ALIIS by Nexoptic?

That's FAKE NEWS
I found this at the ARM website in my search for Cortex X-1
...""Samsung and Arm have a strong technology partnership and we are very excited to see the new direction Arm is taking with the Cortex-X Custom program, enabling innovation in the Android ecosystem for next-gen user experiences."
