With their current Exynos 7420 chip set, Samsung is doing quite good on their flagship smartphones Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. However, the Korean company does not get satisfied with that. They are working hard on and hinting a next generation Exynos 8890. With the codenam M1 Mongoose, the new chipset is said to power Samsung’s upcoming smartphone – Galaxy S7. Samsung Galaxy S7 launch day is rumored to be in February 2016.

Samsung Galaxy S7 — Benchmark results of Exynos 8890

Exynos 8890 chip set – the most powerful ?

As usual, months before a flagship from a well known smartphone manufacturer gets release, leaking and rumors will start to flow over. This time, a source on Weibo just revealed some Benchmark scores of this Exnos 8890.

With the processor speed clocked at 2.3 GHz, the Exynos 8890 scored almost 7,000 points in the multi-threaded Geekbench test, and 2294 on the single-core one. This Exynos 8890 Benchmark result is by far the highest mobile score we’ve ever seen.

If the chip set turns out to be what we know by now, it will be a great selling point for Samsung Galaxy S7. This is not the first time ever Samsung impress with premium performance in the smartphone industry. Earlier their Galaxy Note 5 display was crowned the best display ever among smartphone devices.

Samsung Galaxy S7 release date

To wrap it up, it seems true that Samsung is developing a new Exynos 8890 for their upcoming Galaxy S7. And the device might be showing up in next February 2016.

Opposite to earlier rumors claiming that Samsung might adopt the Snapdragon 820 from Qualcomm for the

Galaxy S7, it seems that the device is more likely to go with their own Exynos.

Samsung Galaxy S7 price and specs we know so far

In terms of Samsung Galaxy S7 specs, here are what we got for now. In order to catch up with latest trends, the S7 is expected to sport 4GB RAM, premium 4K display and a big battery to power it. The Galaxy S7 camera is best to come with 16MP from Samsung sensor and run on latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS.

With Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge price in PH starting from PHP 30K, we guess the flagship Galaxy S7 price in Philippines won’t be less than between PHP 32-35K. Let’s wait several months to see how it will finally come true.
