Earlier this year
Mediatek launched the
8-core MT6592 for
smarpthone use, and now Android tablets are going to receive some
octa-core goodness with the
new 8-core MT8392
chipset.
Spotted in
Antutu benchmark results in a test unit named “mt6592_tabletp1_v1”the
new 8-core MT8392
chipset scored a whopping 28,904 points. Details recorded by the Antutu benchmarks database tell that a Mali 450GPU is part of the
SoC and the
prototype tablet has 1GB RAM and a 1290 x 800
display.
The
octa-core MT8392 will also probably have built-in support for 3G, WIFI and GPS. Keep posted for more
8-core Android
tablet news soon.
