Marvell has unveiled their latest mobile SoC (system-on-a-chip) this week, the ARMADA 628.
The latest chip promises to be a "game changer," running three-cores and clocking in at 1.5GHz.
Marvell says the SoC will run on an ARM v7 infrastructure, likely the Cortex A9 MPCore.
With that computing power, a phone running the chip could playback two simultaneous 1080p 3D video-streams.
Without revealing the capacity of the battery, Marvell says "advanced power-saving features also mean that the chip can play back a high-def video for around ten hours 'on a single charge.'"
Additionally, the company says the first two cores run at high performance, but the final core is "optimized for low-power operation and is clocked at only 624MHz." Because of the low clock speed, the chip can run system-level operations without killing battery by using the more powerful cores.
The chip should make its way into tablets and smartphones within 12 months.
