Samsung Exynos 1280 Overview
Samsung Exynos 1280 is built using a 5nm EUV process. It features two Arm Cortex-A78 performance cores clocked at 2.4Ghz and six Cortex-A55 power-efficient cores clocked at 2.0GHz. Handling the graphics here is the Valhall-based Arm Mali-G68 GPU that has been optimized with Fused Multiply-Add (FMA) for better power consumption and battery life. The neural processing unit (NPU) on the chip is said to offer up to 4.3 trillion operations per second (TOPS), which include high-quality AI functions.
The Exynos 1280 is a 5G-enabled chipset that supports both sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G. In sub-6GHz, the processor supports downlink and uplink speeds of up to 2.55Gbps and 1.28Gbps, respectively. Its image signal processor (ISP) can handle a maximum resolution of up to 108MP and up to 16MP triple camera with zero shutter lag. As far as video goes, it supports 4K video recording and playback at up to 30 frames per second. Lastly, the Exynos 1280 can handle displays with Full HD+ resolution and a fast refresh rate of up to 120Hz.
