The Samsung Exynos 7 Series 9610 also features four Cortex-A73 cores clocked at 2.3GHz and four Cortex-A53 cores at 1.6GHz. It also has a second-generation Bifrost-based ARM Mali-G72 GPU to handle heavy games better and immersive graphics.

It also has LTE Cat 12 connectivity with 3CA (carrier aggregation) at 600 Mbps for downlink and Cat 13 2CA at 150 Mbps uplink. The 9610 also has WiFi 802.11ac 2x2 MIMO, Bluetooth 5.0, FM Radio, GNSS, GPS, GLONASS, BeiDuo, and Galileo.

It also has support for deep learning-based visual processing. It has a neural network engine that can improve face detection. It could recognizes faces that's even covered with objects like hats and etc. It can also do enhance signal-to-noise ratio, brightness in lowlight, and do bokeh shots even on a single camera.

Normally, phones with high fps slow-motion capability are found on high-end phones, but now Samsung plans to bring it to the mid-range deparment. How? The Exynos 9610 has support for 480 fps FHD quality slow-motion recording.

Let's expect this new Samsung chip to be available in the market this H2 of 2018.
