MediaTek to launch a 2GHz Octa Core processor – The MT6592

MediaTek is formerly known for its low-cost, low-performance SoC’s used in low cost android smartphones. Before the announcement of this processor, people especially tech savvy people don’t consider MediaTek processor’s for daily use. Most chinese smartphone manufacturers like Micromax, Karbonn, XOLO etc. use MediaTek processors to power their smartphones.

Octa Core Processor Now coming on to the MT6592

The Octa Core processor is supposed to be clocked at 2GHz and rumor states it that is has a score of 30,000+ on Antutu and out-performs the Samsung’s octa-core Exynos 5410 in benchmarks. The amazing thing about this SoC is that it has 8 cores of Cortex A7 (Yes, 8 cores in a single SoC) made using 28nm manufacturing process rather than the Exynos 5 Octa used in the Samsung Galaxy S4 which has 2 Quad Core processors which function according to the battery requirements. So, 8 cores don’t function at once thus you don’t get the “Octa-Core” performance.
This processor is said to start shipping in the July and smartphones powered with this processor should be out by December 2013 or so.
