Samsung pitches new Exynos 5 Octa 5420 SoC against Nexus 10 - and beats it in Benchmarking

Samsung has announced its new Exynos 5 Octa (Exynos 5420) chip based on ARM Mali-T628 silicon and claims it to be 20% faster than its predecessor (Exynos 5410). Besides, the most significant change is the graphics processing unit, it’s the industry’s first SoC to feature a six-core GPU.

A video has emerged at Engadget, which has got some hands-on with a prototype device featuring the new Exynos 5420 SoC over at SIGGRAPH 2013.

Samsung put the prototype up against a Nexus 10 in a benchmark fight, and the prototype crushed it! Currently, Nexus 10 is the only device to pack the most powerful GPU, packing an Exynos 5 Dual (5250) SoC with Mali-T604 GPU, so comparing the Exynos 5420-packed prototype with a Nexus 10 was certainly the right choice.

As can be seen from the above video, the prototype scored almost double the points as of the Nexus 10. One can see Nexus 10 struggling against Exynos 5 Octa 5420 SoC.
