Galaxy S7: half of the expected models with a Snapdragon 820 – Phonandroid

The Snapdragon 820 Qualcomm processor would eventually be used on half the units of Galaxy S7, alternating with the Exynos processor 8890 that Samsung would obviously difficult to mass produce.

If last month, it said that the version of the Galaxy Snapdragon 820 S7 would be distributed exclusively in the USA and China, Samsung could eventually expand to other markets. After only used his own Soc S6 with the Galaxy and its variants, next year, the Korean should use both his and Qualcomm and above all equally. Two processors that will in any case engraved in 14 nanometers with the Korean itself.

A new information that changes slightly since the previous provides, for the moment, we do not know What model will be marketed in Europe . We will not be surprised if Samsung decides to market the version Snapdragon 820 in the US since its modem is compatible with all 4G frequencies used by US operators. However, the source also confirms that, like the Soc Qualcomm, the Exynos 8890 will offer a 4G modem Class 12 is a 600 Mbps throughput.

In this case, moreover, why choose two different processors? Well, simply because the performance of the Exynos 8890 with mass production has just started would not be enough. Probably the reason why the Korean have decided to adopt a 50/50 ratio for both versions , as he also did to the Galaxy Note 4.

The release date of Samsung Galaxy seems S7 scheduled for February with an official announcement which is expected in January. A schedule change to stay ahead of competitors, mostly, enjoy the MWC 2016 to announce their new flagship stores.
