One thing that Samsung’s upcoming flagship Galaxy S III won’t include is 32nm Cortex-A15 core.

The smartphone will arrive on the market with a Cortex-A9 chip inside, although Samsung is also working on the release of a Cortex-A15 processor, namely the Exynos 5.

Following various leaked details on the specifications list of the upcoming Galaxy S III, info on what the Exynos 5 processor will have to offer has also emerged.

For example, we know that the device will be manufactured using the 32nm process, and that it will feature an ARM Mali T-604 MP4 GPU.

A recently leaked slide shows that the processor will feature two CPU cores and four GPU cores, along with 64-bit memory up to 1600MHz, and that it will run at up to 2GHz.

On next-generation smartphones, however, the CPU will most probably be underclocked, so it will drain less battery power.
