Saat memilih smartphone pasti yang pertama kamu lihat adalah speknya. Mulai dari prosesor, RAM, ROM, resolusi kamera, ukuran layar, dan yang pasti harganya. Warna dan merek urusan belakangan. Berbicara soal prosesor, kamu pasti menemukan banyak kata asing dan sulit untuk dimengerti seperti Dual Core 2 inti, Quad Core 4 inti, ataupun Octa Core 8 inti. Lalu apa perbedaanya? Apa fungsinya untuk smartphone kita? Nah, di kesempatan kali ini saya jelaskan core apa saja yang ada di Android dan apa kelebihan dan kekuranganya. Simak ulasannya hingga tuntas ya! BACA JUGA Lawan Snapdragon 660, MediaTek Buat Prosesor Helio P35 Wow, Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Siap Jadi Prosesor Nomor 1 di Dunia! Snapdragon 820 vs Exynos 8890, Mana Prosesor yang Paling Canggih? Dual Core vs Quad Core vs Octa Core, Mana yang Cocok untuk Smartphone Kamu? Prosesor adalah otak atau inti utama dari sebuah device seperti komputer dan smartphone. Bekerja layaknya otak, mereka memproses seluruh sistem atau tindakan yang bekerja pada device tersebut. Jadi, bisa disimpulkan bahwa prosesor adalah inti dari sebuah device dan menjadi keharusan untuk kita menemukan prosesor yang terbaik agar performa smartphone tetap nyaman digunakan. Tapi tunggu dulu, bagaimana cara memilihnya? Pasalnya, prosesor terdiri dari banyak merek, jenis, dan banyak istilah yang sulit dimengerti. Maka dari itu, berikut saya jabarkan semua hal terkait prosesor. Jenis dan Merek Prosesor yang Umum Di Android 1. Qualcomm Snapdragon Qualcomm Snapdragon telah dikenal sebagai pabrikan yang sudah berpengalaman dalam merilis chipset dengan prosesor berkualitas dan kemampuan yang mumpuni. Chipset dari Qualcomm terlihat lebih berkelas. Terbukti sekarang ini chipset tersebut banyak digunakan oleh produk-produk tablet dan smartphone berkelas. 2. MediaTek MediaTek merupakan produsen yang fokus pada produksi chipset dengan jumlah loading lebih banyak dan dibanderol dengan harga yang terjangkau. Awalnya, MediaTek dianggap tidak mampu menyaingi Qualcomm sehingga sering dianggap kurang bagus. Namun dalam perkembangannya, MediaTek mendekati kemampuan chipset Qualcomm. Saat ini jenis terbaru dari prosesor MediaTek yaitu MT6735. SoC System-on-Chip memiliki kemampuan hingga 64-bit. SoC tersebut telah didukung prosesor Quad-Core serta GPU dari ARM yang didukung oleh chip modem 4G LTE. 3. Intel Prosesor Intel Atom menawarkan kinerja yang mumpuni. Salah satu keunggulannya adalah teknologi thread yang membuat CPU Dual Core seolah memiliki empat inti. Smartphone dengan prosesor Intel antara lain Lenovo K900 dan ASUS ZenFone. 4. OMAP Jenis prosesor OMAP merupakan hasil produksi dari Texas Instrument, jenis prosesor ini sering digunakan oleh smartphone yang memiliki kinerja andal seperti Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Huawei Ascend P1 S serta tablet Archos. Kelebihan yang dimiliki prosesor OMAP yaitu proses tampilan situs Internetnya seperti website pada PC. User interface lebih cepat serta penggunaan daya sedikit. 5. Nvidia Tegra Prosesor buatan Nvidia Tegra difokuskan agar andal untuk bermain game. Chipset Nvidia sangat cocok untuk pencinta game. Nvidia dapat menghadirkan jumlah Core yang efektif. Misalnya saja jika gadget menjalankan game berat, semua inti prosesor akan bekerja namun jika menjalankan aplikasi ringan, hanya satu inti yang akan berjalan. 6. Exynos Ini adalah prosesor buatan Samsung. Chipset ini cenderung eksklusif karena hanya untuk perangkat premium buatan Samsung. Chipset ini menawarkan performa yang hampir sama dengan Qualcomm sehingga sudah dapat dikatakan mumpuni. Prosesor jenis Exynos juga dilengkapi oleh GPU ARM Mali-400 MP4 yang mempunyai kelebihan pada bidang game 3D serta multitasking. Fungsi Jumlah Core dalam Prosesor Sebelum membahas yang lainnya, ada baiknya kita mengetahui kenapa jumlah Core pada prosesor semakin banyak saja. Bukankah 2 inti juga sudah cukup dan Ghz-nya saja yang dibesarkan misal menjadi Ghz? Ya, hal ini memang masuk akal namun sayangnya Ghz dari sebuah Core tidak bisa diperbesar. Nah, solusi terbaik adalah dengan menggandakan Core. Misal, maksimal Ghz dalam 1 Core adalah 2,1 Ghz maka agar lebih besar lagi para produsen prosesor membuatnya menjadi Dual Core. Jadi, jika 1 Core = 2,1 Ghz maka 2 Core = 4,2 Ghz. Itulah alasan kenapa Core semakin banyak. Macam-Macam Jumlah Core di Berbagai Smartphone Agar bisa memilih prosesor dengan benar, ada baiknya untuk belajar lagi mengenai perbedaan Dual Core, Quad Core, dan Octa Core. 1. Single Core Seperti namanya, Core jenis ini hanya memiliki 1 inti yang akan mengerjakan proses secara sendirian dan hanya bisa mengerjakan 1 proses dalam 1 waktu. Kelebihan Paling cepat untuk memproses 1 buah data atau tugas. Hemat daya. Kekurangan Kinerja kurang. Lambat bila memproses 2 atau lebih tugas yang diberikan. Kurang cocok untuk multitasking. kurang cocok untuk gaming. 2. Dual Core Nah, sekarang ada Dual Core yang memiliki 2 inti. Berarti Core tidak bekerja sendirian. Nah, untuk mengetahui perbedaannya dengan Single Core, kamu bisa lihat gambar di bawah ini. Dari gambar di atas bisa disimpulkan bahwa Dual Core itu seperti pasangan suami istri. Mereka bekerja sama dalam menjalankan hidup. Membuat pekerjaan menjadi semakin ringan. Dual Core bisa memproses 2 pekerjaan sekaligus karena memiliki 2 inti yang bekerja bersamaan. Kelebihan Lebih stabil dari Core lainnya. Masih terbilang hemat daya. Kinerja cukup untuk multitasking. Gaming sudah cukup. Kekurangan Konsumsi daya lebih boros dari Single Core. Kadang cepat panas. Bila memproses tugas terlalu banyak sekaligus akan sering terjadi force close. 3. Quad Core Quad Core memiliki 4 inti sehingga kinerjanya semakin cepat dan ringan saat memproses data. Selain itu, Quad Core memiliki kelebihan dalam hal mutitasking. Kelebihan Kuat memproses tugas 4 sekaligus dengan cepat. Cocok untuk multitasking. Tidak mudah force close. Cocok untuk gaming. Kekurangan Cepat panas. Konsumsi daya cukup besar. Kadang ada Core yang tidak bekerja dan menyebabkan proses lambat. 4. Octa Core Masih belum puas dengan performa Dual Core maka diciptakan Octa Core yang memiliki 8 inti dalam 1 prosesor. Ini bisa diartikan memproses 8 pekerjaan sekaligus dan membuatnya menjadi lebih cepat. Kelebihan Lebih cepat bila memproses 8 atau lebih tugas sekaligus. Cocok untuk multitasking. Sangat cocok untuk gaming. Kekurangan Konsumsi baterai sangat boros. Cepat panas. Banyak prosesor yang sebenarnya hanya menggunakan 4 Core. Tips Memilih Prosesor Setelah mengetahui penjelasan di atas, berikut saya berikan tips agar kamu bisa memilih prosesor yang sesuai dengan penggunaan kamu. 1. Sesuaikan dengan Cara Penggunaan Menyesuaikan penggunaan itu sangat penting karena nyatanya banyak orang yang sulit memilih merek dan terjebak dengan Octa Core yang diisukan cepat karena memiliki 8 inti namun kenyataannya tidak seperti itu. Berbicara soal merek, kamu bisa memilih sesuai penggunaan. Misalnya, bagi kamu para gamer disarankan untuk menggunakan Nvidia Tegra, Qualcomm Snapdragon atau Intel Inside. Namun, bila mencari harga yang agak miring maka MediaTek bisa menjadi solusi karena sekarang sudah berkembang dan bisa menyaingi prosesor lainnya. Agar tidak tertipu oleh Core yang banyak maka perhatikan gambar di bawah ini. Dari gambar tersebut bisa disimpulkan bahwa lebih banyak Core berarti lebih cepat kinerjanya. Pernyataan itu bisa benar dan juga salah. Pasalnya, untuk mengerjakan 1 proses, Single Core adalah yang paling unggul dan untuk mengerjakan banyak proses maka Core-terbanyaklah yang terbaik. 2. Carilah Prosesor yang Sudah "TRUE" untuk Core yang Banyak Apa bedanya yang True atau tidak? True di sini berarti semua inti bekerja dengan baik, tidak ada yang tidak berfungsi. Jadi, bagi kamu yang menggunakan Android untuk game berat dan aplikasi yang banyak secara sekaligus, saya sarankan untuk memilih Core yang banyak. Sementara bagi kamu yang menggunakan Android untuk hal-hal ringan, saya sarankan untuk menggunakan prosesor dengan Core yang lebih sedikit agar daya baterai lebih tahan lama. Sekarang kamu sudah jauh lebih tahu tentang Dual Core, Quad Core, dan Octa Core kan? Sematkan pendapatmu di kolom komentar ya!

Answer(1 of 2): Octacore means that the CPU has 8 cores, or areas that do computing. The number of GHz is the number of computations (in billions) that can be done per minute. Generally, a higher number in GHz is better, so the 2.0GHz would be better in this situation if not too much more expensive
Qual a diferença de um octa-core para um quad-core? Estou na dúvida por que os celulares da LG são quad-core e os smartphones da Samsung são octa-core. O que é? Qual das duas é melhor Samsung ou LG e vocês tem algum celular para me indicar?PUBLICIDADERespostas7 anos atrásComo já foi citado pelo spicy_question, o numero de cores não determina o melhor desempenho, indo além do citado, lembre-se que o Windows phone com menos cores e memória consegue uma fluidez por vezes maior que um top de linha Android. O próprio iPhone que é inferior em hardware consegue essa fluidez. A questão é que se o hardware não casa com o software, podem ter trinta cores que a coisa não anos atrásTeoricamente ter oito nucelos seria melhor, porque funciona como se existissem oito processadores. Mas lembro que o Galaxy S5 tem duas versões uma com oito núcleos e outra com quatro núcleos, e nas comparações o modelo com quatro núcleos tinha o mesmo desempenho, sem esquentar e a autonomia da bateria era uns 50% maior. Então só mesmo comparando cada modelo. 7 anos atrásQuad core é um processador de quatro núcleos, e octa core de oito núcleos, ou seja, é mais rápido. As duas empresas tem ótimos smartphones, depende muito do tipo de smart que você quer...1 ano atrásAproveitando o gancho dessa pergunta, gostaria de enter uma dúvida. Então, o Snapdragon 888 é um processador com 8 núcleos certo? quando falamos dual-core, quad-core ou octa-core isso quer dizer a quantidade de núcleo certo? A minha dúvida é, porque se tem um processador com nome de núcleo, como o processador Octa-core? E mais, o que mais me confunde é, o Snapdragon é um octa-core, ou seja com oito núcleos, porém temos um processador que se chama Octa-core que também tem 8 núcleos, ou seja, é um processador com nome de núcleo. Isso que me confunde. Podem me ajudar com essa dúvida? No mais, muito obrigada ❤ 5 anos atrásMe desculpe kk mas a Samsung é a melhor marca desde a famosa Nokia,que era imbatível. Agora,LG não chega nem perto,muito anos atrásUm Celular Octa Core é mais rápido que um Quad Core. Além disso é bom estar atento a velocidade do processador o qual muitas vezes nas lojas não ASUS Zenfone 3 com 32Gb, 3Gb RAM, processador Octa core é superior ao SAMSUNG J7 Prime que tem 32Gb, 3Gb RAM e processador Octa core quad + quad Outro fator importante são os aplicativos, SAMSUNG tem aparelhos muito bons, porém o Android que eles usam é muito mexido, muitos aplicativos da própria Samsung no qual você até pode remover, mas quando vem atualização esses aplicativos voltam, detalhe sempre que há atualização, novas informações foram acrescentadas nos aplicativos tornando-os mais pesados, desta forma vindo a travar. Já ASUS que é a maior fabricante de placas do mundo e MotorolaLENOVO possuem Android mais limpo, leves de trabalhar. 6 anos atrásUm processador quad core possui quatro núcleos e octa core, possui oito, como já foi citado acima. No entanto, o que vai definir seu real desempenho é o clock que é medido em GHz, quanto maior, melhor será para executar vários aplicativos simultaneamente sem que haja engasgos e travamentos.

Alimentos e BebidasBem EstarCasa e DecoraçãoEspeciais da LuEstilo de VidaTecnologiaDá uma lida que eu te conto a diferença entre elesSmartphoneAtualizado em 2 Mar 182 min de leitura Gente, na hora de comprar um smartphone novo, a maioria das pessoas pensa na cor, na qualidade das câmeras e no tamanho da tela, né? E, sabia que uma das coisas mais importantes pra considerar é o processador? Isso mesmo! Mas, não precisa se preocupar, viu? Pra te ajudar, vou te contar um pouquinho sobre o quad-core e o octa-core! Afinal, isso pode fazer muita diferença no seu dia a dia, especialmente se você costuma usar vários aplicativos ao mesmo tempo ou gosta de games pesados. Então, vem comigo! As diferenças entre processadores quad-core e octa-core Pra começar é bom você saber que o processador é como se fosse o cérebro do smartphone, tá? É ele que processa todas as informações pra rodar os aplicativos, navegar na internet e tudo mais o que você pode fazer com o aparelho. E quanto mais veloz ele é, mais potente fica o aparelho. Falando em velocidade do processador, ela é medida em GHz. Por isso, quando estiver escolhendo o seu próximo smartphone, fique de olho nesse número, tá? Quanto maior for o número de GHz, mais rápido ele será! Outra parte importante é a quantidade de núcleos que ajudam nas tarefas. Se o processador for quad-core, significa que ele tem quatro núcleos. É como se quatro cérebros trabalhassem pra realizar as tarefas. Já o octa-core, como o nome mesmo diz, tem oito. Mas, e aí? Qual é a diferença na quantidade de núcleos num processador? Calma, que eu te explico! Os núcleos podem ganhar funções diferentes no seu aparelho. Então, enquanto um cuida da economia da bateria, o outro pode ser o responsável pelos apps e jogos que pedem uma performance maior. E, quanto mais núcleos um processador de smartphone tiver, melhor será o desempenho dele. Por isso, os processadores octa-core são atualmente os mais potentes no mercado, tá? Inclusive, se você quer um celular rápido, que possa realizar qualquer tarefa, sem travadinhas, ele é o ideal pra você! Entre os smartphones que têm o processador octa-core destaco o Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy S9 e A9+, Galaxy A6+, Galaxy A8 e A8+, Moto Z3 Play, Moto X4, Moto G6, Moto G6 Play e Moto G6 Plus, LG G7 ThinQ, LG Q6 e LG Q6 Plus e o Xperia XZ Premium. Já os aparelhos quad-core são mais recomendados pra quem não costuma rodar games muito pesados ou vários apps ao mesmo tempo. Smartphones como o Samsung Galaxy J4, LG K9TV, Motorola Moto E5 e E5 Plus vêm com esse processador. Mas eles também são muito bons, viu? E aí? Quad-core ou octa-core? Aqui no Magazine Luiza tem smartphones com os dois tipos de processadores! É só escolher!Matérias relacionadas
Jadi kesimpulan tentang perbedaan prosesor dual-core, quad-core, Hexa Core dan Octa-core, yang tergantung pada proyek arsitektur atau desain kernel. Jangan lupa bahwa dukungan RAM juga sangat mempengaruhi kinerja prosesor itu sendiri. Ini berarti bahwa spesifikasi RAM harus sebanding dengan spesifikasi prosesor yang digunakan. Apa itu GHzAntes de mais nada vamos separar as coisas... a pergunta é qual dentre os modelos de Galaxy S4 hoje existentes seria a melhor escolha, o que carrega o processador Snapdragon 600 ou o com o processador Exynos 5 deixar claro sobre o grande diferencial que cada um dos modelos carrega sobre aceitar a tecnologia 4g ou não, pois bem, em comunicado oficial a Samsung afirmou em nota oficial que o processador Exynos 5 Octa conta sim com acesso a rede 4G por moldem LTE interno, e que o fato de haverem dois modelos com processadores diferentes é pelo simples fato que a samsung não conseguiria produzir na escala necessária o processador Exynos 5 Octa para equipar a todos os dispositivos no período inicial de o argumento de se escolher um por ser 4G no lugar do outro que é 3G não tem fundamento técnico, ambos trabalham com rede 4G LTE.O diferencial dos dois está na capacidade de processamento, e obviamente no consumo energético e na geração de calor. Um dos modelos conta com o chip Exynos 5 Octa 5410, que oferece a tecnologia Imagination Technologies PowerVR SGX 544MP3 GPU e 2GB de LPDDR3 RAM. Ele traz um processador Quad-core 1,6 GHz Cortex-A15, mais um quad-core 1,2 GHz Cortex-A7. Sendo que eles trabalham um de cada vez, dependendo da aplicação. O A15, por exemplo, é responsável por aplicações mais pesadas e que requerem mais energia, como jogos. E o A7 para tarefas cotidianas, como uso da internet. À medida que um é ativado, outro se desliga automaticamente. A maioria das pessoas acredita que oito núcleos oferece muito mais poder que quatro. Mas na realidade, apenas quatro núcleos trabalham por vez. É verdade que o A15 é o melhor processador já lançado para um smartphone. Mas é mentira que você vai conseguir oito núcleos trabalhando ao mesmo tempo no dispositivo, que isso fique claro. No quesito GPU, o Exynos vem com 533MHz, enquanto o Adreno 320 do chip da Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 oferece 450 MHZ. No final das contas, a diferença entre os processadores não é gritante. Mas sim, o Exynos 5 Octa tem vantagem de processamento geral e gráfica e isso podemos ver quando comparamos os resultados de Benchmark Exynos 5 Octa Antutu pontos contra do Snapdragon 600 Exynos 5 Octa Antutu 3D - on screen pontos contra do Snapdragon 600 O processador de oito núcleos dois processadores quadcore em paralelo tem a vitória na hora de processar jogos, aplicativos de alta demanda de processamento e em relação a navegação por HTML 5, por exemplo. Além de se dar melhor na hora de lidar com grandes cargas de processamento. Em testes realizados com a bateria de ambos os modelos, o Exynos 5 Octa teve uma pequena desvantagem sendo mais eficiente o Snapdragon 600. O dispositivo desligou, em uso normal diário, depois de 12 horas, gerando também um aquecimento bem superior ao observado no Snapdragon 600. O modelo com Snapdragon 600 durou ao menos três horas a mais ligado. Totalizando 15 horas de bateria ativa, demonstrando uma melhor eficiência energética. Portanto em se tratando de qual dispositivo carrega o melhor processador, podemos ser claros em afirmar que o Exynos 5 Octa é o melhor processador da geração dos Smartphones lançados concomitantes ao Galaxy S4, superando seus concorrentes diretos o chip da Nvidia Tegra 3 e o da Qualcomm o Snapdragon 600. Para aqueles que não fazem uso pesado de aplicativos no celular, essa diferença sequer é notada, contudo se mostra presente no uso de aplicativos que exigem muito de processamento geral e da parte gráfica, assim como na navegação por HTML 5. ENTAO PODEMOS RESPONDER TECNICAMENTE FALANDO QUE O GALAXY S4 EQUIPADO COM O PROCESSADOR EXYNOS 5 OCTA É SUPERIOR AO GALAXY S4 EQUIPADO COM SNAPDRAGON 600, POIS SIM.... AMBOS TRABALHAM EM REDES 4G LTE E O PROCESSADOR DA SAMSUNG É O MAIS MODERNO E POTENTE DESTA GERAÇÃO EXYNOS 5 OCTA vs SNAPDRAGON 600 vs NVIDIA TEGRA 3. Não se pode comparar um processador Snapdragon 800 com o Exynos 5 Octa pois são de gerações diferentes, quando sair o Exynos 5 Octa de segunda geração, ai sim é cabível esta comparação Snapdragon 800 vs Exynos 5 Octa II generation vs Nvidia Tegra 4 ATÉ LÁ O EXYNOS 5 OCTA É O CAMPEÃO DE SUA GERAÇÃO DE PROCESSADORES.
Jadiinti dari semua ini tidaklah processor quad-core atau pun octa-core. Sebaliknya, kinerja device secara keseluruhan lah yang penting.

Quad-core or Octa-core Is there a difference? Here’s what you need to know about the processors packed into your smartphone and tablets For smartphones in 2014 it was mostly about quad-core power. Now, a year later everyone is moving to octa-core processors. Whether its the Samsung Galaxy S6, the Nexus 6P or the bargain priced OnePlus 2. So is this really a big deal that we know have more cores powering our smartphones? Octa-core chips have double the number of processor cores of quad-core chips, right? Yes. So they’re pretty much twice as powerful, right? No. Not even close. It’s not just about the numbers here. And this is why some explanation of the difference between octa-core and quad-core is needed… =””> Octa-core vs Quad-core It’s not about power The terms octa-core and quad-core denote the number of processor cores in a CPU. Octa is eight, quad is four. So far, so obvious. But the key difference between the two – at least when talking about mobile chips in 2015 – is how these processor cores are set up. In the case of quad-core chips, each core can be put to work simultaneously on a given task, enabling fast and fluid multitasking, smooth 3D gameplay, and super-speedy camera performance, among other things. Modern octa-core chips, meanwhile, simply have two sets of quad-core processors, which split various tasks between them according to type. Most of the time, the lower-powered set of cores will be employed. When advanced tasks are needed, however, the faster set of four cores will kick in. A more accurate term than octa-core, then, would be “dual quad-core”. But that just sounds confusing, and it’s not nearly so marketable. So, octa-core it is. Related Snapdragon 810 vs its rivals The table above shows multi-core benchmark performances of quad-core and octa-core smartphones and tablets image credit Geekbench 3 Octa-core vs Quad-core Purpose What’s the point of having two sets of quad-core processors handing off tasks to one another, then? It’s all about energy efficiency. The more powerful a CPU is, the more power it has to draw from a device’s battery. This poses a problem, given that smartphone battery technology hasn’t advanced at anywhere near the rate of mobile processor technology. The result as smartphones have gotten more advanced, so battery life has plummeted. The truth, however, is that you don’t really need that much processing power for the vast majority of smartphone tasks. Navigating through your home screens, checking messages, and even browsing the web aren’t particularly power-hungry tasks. However, HD video, gaming, and photo manipulation most certainly are. Combined with the fact that CPU manufacturing processes have gotten so precise now that you can squeeze much more onto a single chip, the octa-core concept seems to be a practical, if slightly inelegant, way to lengthen a modern phone’s battery life without compromising performance where it matters. Related How many cores do you actually need in a phone? Octa-core vs Quad-core Technology All modern octa-core mobile chips are based on ARM’s so-called architecture. This octa-core architecture was announced in October 2011, enabling four low-power Cortex-A7 cores to operate with four high-performance Cortex-A15 cores. ARM has iterated on this setup every year since, providing more capable chips on both halves of the octa-core divide. A number of major mobile chip manufacturers have based their efforts on this or octa-core, blueprint. One of the first and most notable was Samsung’s own Exynos chip, which made its debut in Octa form – at least in some territories – with the Samsung Galaxy S4. More recently, Qualcomm switched to the octa-core setup with its new Snapdragon 810 CPU. This is the chip that powers the recently announced HTC One M9 and the LG G Flex 2. At the start of the year, Nvidia unveiled the Tegra X1, its new super-powerful mobile processor that will be at the heart of the company’s push into automotive computing. While the X1’s headline feature is its console-challenging GPU, it also sees a shift to arm’s architecture. Yep, it’s gone octa-core too. Huawei’s own Kirin 920 sported a similar setup when it made its way into the Honor 6 late last year, while MediaTek is another chip manufacturer to adopt the architecture with its MT6595 chip. Related Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 vs iPad Air 2 Octa-core vs Quad-core Conclusion So, what’s the difference between octa-core and quad-core in the modern smartphone business? Very little, as it turns out. That octa-core term is more than a little misleading, as it doesn’t mean the doubling of quad-core multi-core performance that it suggests. Rather, it represents two independently operating quad-core set-ups squeezed together on one chip for the purpose of greater energy efficiency. Is such an octa-core setup superior to a quad-core one? No, not necessarily. Apple manages to get decent energy efficiency and performance out of a dual-core setup, after all. The latest news that Qualcomm’s supposed processor of choice for smartphones in 2015 will be a quad-core’ based Snapdragon 820 set up supports this as well. Having gone octa-core for its top end Snapdragon 810 and the mid-range 615 processors this year, both have had their issues. The 810 had the more high profile overheating issues that we experienced with the Sony Xperia Z3 Plus and the LG G Flex 2. The problem could lie with Qualcomm’s decision to swap four Krait cores for ARM’s Cortex low-power cores, but it’s clear that the company has taken a step backwards to hopefully repair the damage done this year and get manufacturers like Samsung back on board. ARM’s octa-core blueprint can be seen as one possible solution among several to a long-standing smartphone problem – awful battery life. Once someone solves that particular issue, we suspect that we’ll see the end of this curious dual quad-core setup. If you have any more questions about the differences between octa-core and quad-core processors, let us know in the comments section below. =””>
3 Uses big.LITTLE technology. ARM Cortex-A75. Qualcomm Kryo. Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores toThere was a time when people bought smartphones depending on what manufacturers said in ads and other places. Now that we have a clear idea of how smartphones work, customers have become conscious of different aspects. We believe the largest confusion is of Octa Core vs Quad Core processors. It’s a universally acknowledged fact that a processor has the pivotal role in the performance of a two years back, Quad Core processor mobiles were a luxury in the world of smartphones. There were only a few flagship devices that came with Quad-Core processors inside. Looking back, however, we have passed through a huge growth in the mobile performance sector. Today, even some budget-friendly devices provide Octa-Core processors. At the least, you have a choice when it comes to choosing the processor for a this article, we will spot out the difference quad core vs octa-core processors so that you can make a quick decision. We will also compare some popular quad core and octa core processor sets from Snapdragon. This way, you can really understand what it is to have an octa-core SoC instead of the quad-core Introduction to Processors and CoresSmartphones have finally become minimized versions of fully-fledged computers! As it happens so, you can find fully-fledged processors inside them too. Just as you have seen in the world of computers, a Processor has the primary function of executing tasks and processes. We don’t want to dig in here much; so, we would move onto Processor Core can easily be called the Processing Units of the Processors. We know that’s confusing. Simply put, in a single processor – say, Snapdragon 410 – you can find one or more cores. That is, the processor is having one or more components for processing the tasks. Essentially, a Processor Core is the important as well as required components of a hope now you have a clear idea about smartphone processors and processor cores. We’ll now find those real differences between an Octa-Core Processor vs Quad Core Processor vs Quad Core ProcessorIf we are talking in terms of numbers, the classification is ultra-simple. Octa-Core Processors have Eight different processor cores in those chips. On the other hand, when it comes to the case of Quad Core processors, there are only Four processor cores only. But, this does not mean that an octa-core processor is twice as powerful as a quad-core chip. There are other factors involved in there, the major one being the organization of processor vs Quad-core PerformanceIn the case of quad-core processors, all the processor cores can be brought to work. This is, once again, under some particular circumstances. When you are reading an article or browsing your messages, all its four cores may not be in use. Nevertheless, if you are streaming some HD Videos or dealing with some graphics-hungry games, chances are, all the cores are at work. In short, the trigger here is whether an app/game is optimized to use all the processor cores in a single are a bit different in the case of most Octa-Core processors in the market. According to the processor design, there will be two sets of processor cores. Each set will be comprised of Four Processor Cores. Out of these, four cores are lower-powered and four other cores are high-powered. One thing to be noted here is that the low-power cores are always at work, in most smartphones. So, you don’t have to worry if you can’t find the double speed in your Octa Core processor device when compared to the quad-core vs Quad-core – The ResultJust as we discussed in the case of quad-core processors, optimization of apps is a big deal here too. As far as we know, there aren’t many Android apps that make use of Octa-Core setup in the right hope that sums up your questions as to why you cannot find the extra speed with Octa Core devices. In simpler words, it does not matter how many cores a processor has if the device/app cannot manage them. An example from Apple is to be noted here. Apple Inc. still depends on Dual-Core Processors for powering their devices, and there have been no major complaints of the way, there are some smartphone manufacturers that put True Octa Cores inside. It means that all 8 processor cores will be working at the same time. On paper, this should give you the best performance and it should be doubled than the quad-core scenario. Once again, without apps that utilize the eight-cores-at-a-time scenario, everything is vs Quad-core – Battery LifeAs we all know, a processor is the largest consumer of battery resources. In the common usage scenario, you will drain your battery quickly if you are doing some resource-hungry tasks, like HD Streaming or gaming for that matter. And, the number of processor cores plays an important role here 4 processor cores are working simultaneously inside your smartphone. In another case, 8 processor cores may be working. As it happens, the battery consumption will be higher in the second possibility. But, this is all hypothesis, because you are not going to have all the four cores or all the eight cores working at the same then, you might see some extra battery drains if your smartphone has an Octa-Core processor inside. It is something serious because smartphone batteries are not bigger according to the growth of processing Up – Octa-core vs Quad-coreRecalling what we have said above, there is no point in going behind the numbers. In practice, just because you have eight processor cores in the device does not mean you have better performance than quad-core devices. It’s also about whether those processor cores are being used properly – by both the device and all the resource-hungry apps out of now, there aren’t many Android apps that fall into that category, but we can expect them soon. Until that point, purchasing an Octa-Core Smartphone instead of a Quad-Core smartphone is not going to give you anything good. You are literally wasting some money. Moreover, you should not just be focused on numbers while picking the certain cases, a Quad Core Processor can be powerful than Octa-Core Processor. It’s also about the cores that are being used in them. In other words, Octa Core is powerful than Quad Core’ is a myth constructed by marketers and smartphone manufacturers, to loot money from common people. And, never ever fall into that pit again. Processor matters, and not the number of cores!Disclosure Content published on TechLila is reader-supported.
