MediaTek 10-core CPU may debut on the Elephone P9000
If you’ve been feeling like your octa-core CPU hasn’t really been keeping up and brute-forcing more cores in there would be excellent, you’ll be glad to hear that MediaTek has you covered. Back in May we saw MediaTek let out the wraps on their upcoming deca-core Helio X20 processor. A recent leak has shone a light on its debut, with what may be the first device to carry the computing-monster SoC, the Elephone P9000.
In case you’re unfamiliar with Elephone, they’re Chinese smartphone manufacturer, but sell their devices internationally. The leak came via the Chinese site MyDrivers, which gave us some other tidbits about feature-packed phone.
The Helix X20 is made up of groups of CPUs at different levels, two Cortex-A72 processors (2.5 GHz) at the top-end, four Cortex-A53 (2.0 GHz) medium performers, and four more Cortex-A53 (1.4 GHz) for power efficiency. The on-board GPU is the Mali-T800.
It is said in the leak that the phone will go for 3104 CNY (~$500 USD), and is slated for a October 20th release. Are you excited to see the CPU-cores boundary pushed even further or do you think it’s frivolous at this point?
