Sammy’s current Cortex A9-based chips are hardly slackers — the Galaxy Note already proved that to any lingering doubters. Nevertheless, the next-gen Exynos 5250 SoC promises to double that sort of performance, by harnessing two Cortex-A15 chips clocked at 2GHz each, along with a GPU that can output resolutions of up to 2560 x 1600 (WQXGA).

When Qualcomm announced a pair of Windows 8 -compatible ARM processors yesterday, we knew Texas Instruments wouldn’t be far behind. Sure enough, the company has just announced a new addition to its OMAP 4 family of ARM SoCs, with the 1.8GHz OMAP4470

Seems like we just can’t get ARM’s next-generation Cortex-A15 system-on-chip out of our minds.

Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon roadmap bumped back a little, expectations remain great
Smartphones and tablets, the two hottest categories of consumer devices right now, are dominated by ARM processor designs, so when the company speaks up about its product roadmap, we’re inclined to listen in close.

ARM predicts dual-core Cortex-A15 devices in late 2012, quad-core variants ‘later on’
Promising “visually rich user experiences not previously seen in consumer electronics devices,” ARM has introduced its latest embedded GPU architecture, Mali-T604, at its Technology Conference 2010 in California today. Though we’re unlikely to see it in devices any time soon, the introduction means that the new design is available to ARM licensees — and notably, the company points out that partner Samsung will be the first to get hooked up. Considering Sammy competes in the high-end embedded system-on-chip space already with its ARM-based Hummingbird line of cores, adding in the Mali-T604 is probably the next logical step for them.

Way to take the wind out of our sails, ARM — no sooner does your dual-core Cortex-A9 finally ship , do you reveal an even more powerful smartphone, smartbook and server-slaying beast. The Cortex-A15 MPCore picks up where the A9 left off, but with reportedly five times the power of existing SOCs, raising the bar for ARM-based single- and dual-core cell phone processors up to 1.5GHz…

We still consider Samsung’s Hummingbird application processor to be among the very best for mobile computers, but this morning Sammy itself is stepping up the charge to make it look real old real fast. The freshly announced dual-core Orion promises to whip us all into a frenzy of geek lust with “5 times the 3D graphics performance over the previous processor generation from Samsung,” 1080p video encoding and decoding at 30fps, embedded GPS, a native triple display controller, and on-chip HDMI 1.3a interface. Those last two bits mean you can drive two displays on your mobile device while feeding a third, such as a HDTV, all thanks to the one all-powerful chip inside

Samsung’s Orion is the 1GHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 we’ve all been waiting for
As if the Cortex-A9 isn’t stirring up enough emotion all by itself , ARM has revealed it is working hard on producing another, presumably even faster, iteration of its Cortex-A series of chips. Code named Eagle, the new processor is slated for a production run of 3 billion units annually, but alas there’s no more information on it beyond its intended market of smartphones, mobile computing , and digital TV products. There’s also word of a pair of embedded chips, dubbed Heron and Merlin, which will find roles to perform in automotive and audio processing environments

We’ve been hearing reports of the ARM Cortex-A9 holding its own with the ever-present 1.6GHz Atom processor for quite a while now, but ARM is now taking advantage of CES to do a bit more up-front boasting — like this recently-posted video demoing the processor’s browsing performance against an average netbook. While it’s obviously not entirely scientific, the Cortex-A9 does seem to lag only slightly behind — which is all the more impressive considering that the ARM is running at just 500MHz compared to the Atom’s 1.6GHz
