Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Samsung Exynos 9820 is a processor that was once used in many mobile devices. It was manufactured using the advanced 8-nm process. This allowed the chip to achieve good energy efficiency with solid overall performance at the time. At its core were custom Exynos M4 cores, complemented by Cortex-A75/-A55 units.

The Exynos M4 cores aimed for high computing power. They ensured a pleasantly smooth operation in daily use.ARM Mali-G76 MP12 A particular strength of this processor was its integrated graphics unit. The ARM Mali-G76 MP12 delivered considerable graphics performance for mobile applications.

High-resolution videos and more demanding games could be handled well with it. The generous cache configuration, with 2 MB of L2 and L3 cache each, supported fast data processing. The Samsung Exynos 9820 was thus a versatile chip. It offered its users a balanced mix of computing and graphics performance.

We were positively surprised by its versatility at the time. It always performed everyday tasks reliably and efficiently.
