Two major phone manufacturers have just announced their plan to produce dual-core devices for the mobile market. Samsung is bringing out the Orion, a 1GHz ARM® CORTEXTM A9-based dual-core application processor.
Samsung’s new application
processor incorporates a rich portfolio of advanced multimedia features implemented by hardware accelerators, such as video encoder/decoder that supports 30fps video playback and recording at 1080P full HD resolution. Using an enhanced graphics processing unit (GPU), the new processors are capable of delivering 5 times the 3D graphics performance over the previous processor generation from Samsung.
LG has teamed up with NVIDIA for the Tegra 2 processer, a 1GHz chip. LG is claiming that they will produce the world’s first dual-core cellphones, and that a line of them will hit in Q4 2010.
