Ironically Says Samsung Qualcomm CEO Says Eight Cores Are Misleading

A few days ago, Qualcomm CEO Paul Jacobs responded to the news of the eight-core chip and secretly satirized Samsung's eight-core chip, claiming that the mobile phone auditing is misleading to users, and manufacturers must also focus on the user experience.

Jacob pointed out that there are a large variety of dual-core, quad-core and even eight-core mobile phone chip processors currently being upgraded, and emphasize that the number of mobile phone “cores” will not last long, which will mislead users because consumers want to download faster. The graphic processing is smoother and the power consumption is lower. It is not really concerned that the mobile phone chip is a few cores, and the number of audits is just a gimmick for businesses.

At the just-concluded CES 2013, Samsung released an eight-core chip and said it has a lot of excellent performance. But Jacobs said that emphasizing the number of cores in mobile processor chips is a publicity gimmick. The four new ARM cores in Samsung's eight-core chips are not optimized for mobile terminals, so they consume very high power, so they need Smaller cores help with power management of the terminal. Therefore, it is not for Samsung to advertise that the eight-core chip can effectively improve battery life.

Jacob believes that the current trend of emphasizing the number of nuclear chips in mobile phones will not last long. Whether it is a consumer or a terminal manufacturer or an operator, they ultimately focus on the user experience of the terminal, and the user experience is precisely the key to winning the people's mind.
