News & Reviews:   CPU

Every year, Samsung launches a new flagship Exynos chipset and many would wonder "Is this the year?" We don't know if the Exynos 2400 is 'it' quite yet. But Samsung clearly isn't giving up on developing Exynos chips because the Exynos 2500 is already in the works.

For the longest time, ARM-based chipsets followed the ARM big.LITTLE concept. The idea is to have a CPU with performance cores and power efficiency cores. But we could see a new MediaTek chipset later this year that abandons or changes that concept.

Many of the things we do daily are at our fingertips. Catching up on the news, binging your favourite shows, mobile photography, gaming and more. If you are very serious about gaming and photography with your phone, the very first thing you need to keep an eye out for would be the chipset. For these reasons, here is why you should get a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2-powered smartphone.

Over the past two years, the pandemic has affected the workforce and raised prices consequentially. One great example was the hiked price of GPU cards. We have also seen 2022 laptop model prices being a bit overpriced more than they used to and may even rise higher in the second half of 2022.

Google has teased how powerful the upcoming in-house processor, Tensor, will be in AI performance but never revealed anything about the CPU and GPU tech specs. However, thanks to the rumours, we already know that the chip is likely to use Arm Mali-A78 GPU that Samsung uses on its Exynos 2100. Now, the CPU specs have also arrived on the Internet, but it's weird.

When Apple launched its M1-powered Macs last year, it showed how powerful ARM-based chips can be for more mainstream systems. Companies are looking to replicate that success for Windows devices, and ARM's latest chip architecture could be the key.

Earlier, the Geekbench test of the Intel Rocket Lake was leaked showing a record-breaking single-core result. With that said, it looks like that the upcoming CPU is something that other CPU makers like AMD should fear (hope so...). Now, it is rumoured that the next-gen Intel CPU will be arriving on 15 March.

It's important to note that laptops are not like desktop PCs, in that many of the components can't be replaced. So, how do we choose a laptop that suits us? Well, let's take a look at four key tech specs you need to consider before you choose your laptop!
