Samsung’s power-packed Exynos 8890 chipset, believed to be part of the Galaxy S7, has amassed a record score in AnTuTu benchmark test.
The next-generation Samsung chipset has seemingly made history on AnTuTu benchmark site by scaling the 100K mark. To be specific, the Exynos 8890 reported to be powering the flagship Galaxy S7 has tallied 103,692 points, according to Mobi Picker, which cited an unnamed source. In comparison, the powerful Kirin 950 SoC from Huawei apparently amassed 79K points quite recently. The Mate 8, on the other hand, secured more than 94K points.
According to reports, the Exynos 8890 SoC is expected to be part of many high-end Galaxy series of devices, said to be released in 2016. The handset that visited the benchmark site apparently carried the model number SM-G9300, which is actually one of the variants of Samsung Galaxy S7.
Meanwhile, Phone Arena said that the same Exynos 8890 chip passed the Geekbench site, scoring a top-notch 6,908 points on the multi-core test and 2,294 on the single-core test. This chipset has reportedly been manufactured by the now-famous 14 nm FinFET process, which is guaranteed to be energy efficient.
But then, according to rumors, Qualcomm’s powerful Snapdragon 820 chip will be powering the Galaxy S7, specific to the U.S. and China. Samsung’s Exynos 8890 will apparently power the variants earmarked for the rest of the world.
Speaking of key specifications, the Galaxy S7 will reportedly feature a 5.2-inch display, while the Galaxy S7 Edge will come with a 5.7-inch curved screen. Reports said that the aforesaid devices will be introduced on Feb. 21, prior to the MWC 2016 event. In any case, readers are advised to take the reported Galaxy S7 specifications, release date and the benchmark score with the proverbial pinch of salt as the South Korean tech giant has not confirmed any information so far.

Samsung Galaxy S10+ review (king of andriod)

Summary The Galaxy S10+ is exactly what you’d expect out of Samsung’s tenth flagship handset. After all, the company’s been making these for a decade, and knows what works. The S10+ is a winning mix of powerful performance, long-lasting battery, stunning display and capable cameras. There’s also a welcome software overhaul and the ability to wirelessly charge compatible devices, making this a surprisingly useful handset. You’ll have to live with minor quirks like an inconsistent fingerprint sensor, lousy AR emoji and a subpar digital assistant, but none of those keep the S10+ from being an ultimately superb phone Displays One of my biggest questions going into this review was whether I'd be bothered by the "hole punch" display or if I'd get used to it over time. I go back and forth on this, and that's probably because the cutout for the camera only bothers me in specific instances. On the home screen, or in apps like Uber o...

Samsung's new Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge put design first

Samsung Electronics Co. rebooted its premium Galaxy smartphone line with the S6 and S6 Edge, featuring a three-sided screen, as the South Korean company tries to reverse profit declines and market-share losses to Apple Inc. The devices unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on Sunday include payment software that makes them compatible with about 90 percent of card readers. The phones, which feature metal bodies and a fingerprint reader for added security, will go on sale in 20 countries starting April 10. Samsung is trying to regain competitiveness after Apple in September released iPhones with bigger displays, a market segment pioneered by Galaxy S models. The premium Edge model has a screen that extends onto the right and left sides of the phone, adding real estate to access applications and enabling a feature that causes the phone to glow along the edges to alert a user to calls or texts even when placed face down. “We codenamed the project ‘Zero,’ a...

Apple unveils iPhone 6S with 12-megapixel camera, new rose gold color; preorders are waiting on you Sept 12

Just as we expected, Apple announced the next versions of its best-selling smartphones, the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus, at its annual launch event in San Francisco. Also as we expected, the iPhone 6S looks identical to last year's 4.7-inch iPhone 6, reserving its most important changes for the hardware interior. True, there is a new color now, called rose gold (it basically looks like a blush pink, same as the new Apple Watch color option that the company announced). But as far as looks go, this extra shade is the extent of the the changes you'll be able to visually detect between this year's and last year's phones. Apple's emphasis on hardware upgrades over design development follows the pattern that the Cupertino-based company has long established: significant changes come in the even years and incremental updates in the odd. It's a move that could alienate buyers as much cheaper "premium" handsets compete with titans like Apple for market...
