Back in May, ARM announced the successor to the most powerful core used in this year's flagship chipsets named Cortex-A78. This new core promises not only performance gains but significantly improved efficiency as well. Arguably a more interesting part of ARM's announcement, however, was the ultra-powerful X1 core, which is rumored to power up tomorrow's flagship processors.
According to a renowned leakster, the X1 core will be used in both - the Exynos and Snapdragon chipsets, so it's safe to assume that one of the first
The two chipsets will have the same core configuration - 1+3+4. We can then expect the single powerful core to be the X1, the three cores will be Cortex-A78 and the last four will most likely be Cortex-A55 unless ARM announces a successor to its small, efficient core.
The X1 core itself promises 30% and 23% higher peak performance than the Cortex-A77 and A78, respectively. This is why this core will most likely remain in a single, separate cluster due to its high power demand.
