Released in 2014
CPU(s)
This chipset has 4x ARM Cortex-A57 MPcore + 4x ARM Cortex-A53 MPcore CPUs. It belongs to the high-end flagship category of chipsets that can easily run most apps out there. The lower clocked CPU is used under battery saving conditions while both of them may be activated under extreme workloads such as gaming, benchmarking or multitasking but it depends on whether App will effectively use all the CPUs or not.
Number of Cores
This System on Chip has 8 of cores. It can provide high levels of performance with maximum efficiency for today's apps and multitasking. Cores of a SoC have a great impact on the performance as they determine the how the workload is distributed across the chipset as well as the maximum number of apps that can run without stuttering on the smartphone/tab etc. Keep in mind, it also depends whether the App or OS will fully utilise the Cores too or not.
Architecture
This SoC was built on ARM big.LITTLE Harvard architecture which was released in 2014 and is the latest available as of now.
Lithography
This SoC was built on 20nm lithography which results in extremely efficient performance.
Maximum Camera Support
This SoC can effectively support a 55MP camera at max indicating that is mostly used on high-level mobile devices
64-bit
This processor has 64-bit support. 64-bit support allows a SoC to manage more data along its bus width and allow more quantity of RAM to be paired with the chipset. Apps also run more easily and efficiently on 64 Bit processors.
GPU
This chipset has Adreno 430 with 500 MHz core clock speed. It has DirectX 11 API running on it resulting in reduced overheads and silky smooth graphical performance within games and movies.
Phones using this Chipset
Most popular phones using this chipset are HTC One M9, LG G Flex 2 and Xiaomi Mi-5 etc.
Tablets using this Chipset
Popular tabs using this chipset include Sony Xperia Z4, Z4 LTE etc.
