The new eight-core chipset which will be built on Samsung’s 5nm EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet) lithography process features two Cortex-A78 performance cores and six Cortex-A55 power-efficient cores paired with an Arm Mali-G68 GPU. This allows the chipset to support an FHD+ display running 120Hz as well as LPDDR4x memory and UFS 2.2 storage.
As far as the camera performance is concerned, the new Exynos 1280 chipset features an improved image signal processor (ISP) that offers support for up to 108-megapixel primary and three 16-megapixel secondary image sensors. Additionally, with this new chipset, Samsung has also added support for multi-frame image processing and electronic image stabilization (EIS) which results in clearer and less noisy images as well as 4K 30fps videos.
Furthermore, the Samsung Exynos 1280 also packs a dedicated neural processing unit (NPU) that brings new AI functions like scene segmentation, real-time motion analysis and multi-object surveillance.
