The specs on the whole look decent for early 2015 high-end Android standards, just perhaps not as awe-inspiring as one would have expected.
And we’re off. The 2015 mobile numbers race has already begun, even though 2014 is yet to wrap up. Sony is on the right track towards advancing the first candidacy for the world’s fastest smartphone title, and Samsung is just one step behind the Xperia architects.
Tipped to unveil the Galaxy S6 around one year after the S5, Sammy might be faced with a number of crucial decisions. All current signs point to Qualcomm being unable to ship flagship Snapdragon 810 processors to gadget makers in time for spring launches.
So, either Samsung settles for an S805 inside the GS6, or it pushes back the next-gen spearhead’s commercial debut. A third option would be to renounce Qualcomm’s services altogether, and for the first time ever, rely entirely on homebrewed Exynos chip solutions.
The million-dollar question is do the Koreans have what it takes to produce and distribute tens of millions of Exynos 7420 copies? Speaking of, the 7420 was spotted among S6’s speculated internals in an AnTuTu benchmark screenshot.
Mind you, we’re talking a fishy, easy to manipulate screen, not an official test result and listing, so don’t take anything for granted yet. Besides, we’re looking at the possible features of a possible Galaxy S6, model number SM-G925F.
Skepticism aside, the fresh data “revealed” goes mostly hand in hand with previously “leaked” tidbits, making the report a little easier to trust. If it all pans out, the Galaxy S6 is to decidedly enter phablet territory, with a large and vibrant 5.5-inch Quad HD (2,560 x 1,440) display.
By far, the octa-core 64-bit Exynos 7420 processor is the juiciest morsel here, albeit it’s unclear exactly how fast the powerhouse will perform in real life. For all we know, it could prove laggier than the 32-bit Snapdragon 805.
What’s surprising and, let’s face it, slightly disappointing is Samsung apparently plans to go the beaten 3 GB RAM path instead of gambling on 4 gigs. You could get left behind there a little, Sammy. Of course, 3 is all you need, even with the memory-consuming Android 5.0 Lollipop pre-loaded, and we’d much rather see the camera sensors upgraded to 20 and 5 megapixels than the RAM artificially boosted to an unnecessary 4 GB. Who’s with us?
