Samsung has made the Exynos 8 Octa SoC official. The SoC is based on 14nm FinFET process technology and uses the company's first custom desined CPU cores based on 64-bit ARMv8 architecture. It uses four custom cores and four ARM Cortex-A53 cores.It also uses heterogeneous big.LITTLE structure for efficient usage of the eight cores.

The Exynos 8 Octa with custom CPU cores delivers 30 percent improvement in performance and 10 percent better power efficiency compared to the Exynos 7 Octa. It is also the first Samsung SoC in the premium line-up to include intergrated one chip solution that combine the application processor and modem.


It has LTE Rel.12 Cat.12/13 modem that offers maximum download speed of up to 600Mbps (Cat.12) and upload speed of up to 150Mbps (Cat.13) with carrier aggregation. The SoC packs Mali-T880 MP12 GPU and supports up to 4K Ultra HD (4096 x 2160) display resolution.
