Fresh off the heels of the Exynos 2400's performance and efficiency tests, details about its successor, the Exynos 2500, aka the Samsung Dream chip, are already surfacing. The latest news suggests that the upcoming SoC will follow the 10-core CPU architecture of its predecessor, while introducing a new Cortex-X5 core.
Previously, it was rumored that the Exynos 2500 was being tested with a quad-core Cortex-X architecture, but tipster @OreXda has shared an update stating that Samsung is testing a different core combination. Using too many Cortex-X cores could lead to runaway power consumption, and the Exynos 2500's 10-core CPU architecture will remain the same as the Exynos 2400.
However, the Exynos 2500 is an upgrade in that it will feature Cortex-X5 and Cortex-A730 cores, which are expected to provide a significant performance boost over the Exynos 2400's Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720. Unfortunately, the difference in clock frequencies between the Cortex-X5 and Cortex-X4 is minimal, with test frequencies ranging between 3.20GHz and 3.30GHz. Depending on Samsung's final decision, there could end up being only a tiny 100MHz bump, or even no difference at all. The Exynos 2500 is also expected to feature a dual Cortex-A730 cluster running at different clock frequencies, similar to the Exynos 2400 design. As for the low-power cores, the tipster noted that both the old and new generations of the chip will use the same Cortex-A520, but the exact frequency has not been revealed.
Samsung's Exynos 2500 chips are likely to be mass-produced using the company's state-of-the-art 3nm GAA process, which has yet to be used in any smartphone or tablet chip. the Exynos 2400 uses a 4LPP+ process, so it's logical for the Exynos 2500 to use a more advanced process. So far, the Exynos 2400 has performed well in 3DMark benchmarks, so expect Samsung to further improve performance in the next generation.
