Apple A13 Bionic vs Samsung Exynos 8895 Octa

Apple A13 Bionic

► remove from comparison Apple A13 Bionic

The Apple A13 Bionic is a System on a Chip (SoC) from Apple that is found in the iPhone 11 series. It was announced late 2019 and offers 6 cores divided in 2 performance cores and four power efficiency cores. Compared to the previous A12 Bionic, the A13 should offer a 20% improved CPU performance at 40% lower power (according to Apple).

With 8.5 billion transistors, the A13 Bionic is a big chip especially compared to the Snapdragon 835 (3 Billion) or a Skylake desktop quad-core Soc (1.75 Billion).

Samsung Exynos 8895 Octa

► remove from comparison

The Samsung Exynos 9 8895 Octa is a System on a Chip (SoC) for smartphones and tablets. It was announced early 2017 and is one of the first SoCs that is produced in 10nm (together with the Snapdragon 835). It first appeared in the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus and contains four Samsung M1 cores at up to 2.3 GHz and four ARM Cortex-A53 cores to save power. As a GPU it integrates the ARM Mali-G71 MP20. Furthermore, a Cat.16 5CA 1 Gbps (download) and Cat.13 2CA 150 MBps (upload) LTE modem and a LPDDR4x memory controller is integrated. The video engine is capable of en- and decoding 4K UHD 120 fps H.265, H.264 and VP9 according to Samsung.

The performance of the CPU cores seems compareable to the Snapdragon 835 and therefore it should be one of the fastest processors for Android phones in early 2017.
