In the modern world we are spending most of time with our devices (like Smartphones , Tablets, iPads etc.) and our most of work will done with our devices and that's why we want our devices will be best in performance so we will do easily our task and for that purpose is our device configuration will be best and for this main thing is processor of our device because processor is the heart of the device.

So in the recent days most of our devices are come with the Octa-core or Quad-core. In the processors the main element is the core that reads and executes instructions. Devices began with a single-core processor, but engineers created more powerful devices by including more cores in one device. That led to dual-core devices. Soon there were quad-core processors (as in four cores), and now there are hexa- (six) and octa-core (eight) smartphones and tablets.

Benefits of Multiple cores

The more cores, faster they can divide the work you're asking the phone to do. So the benefits of multicore is enhances your device performance & your apps loads quickly on your device. You can easily capture high-quality photos & Videos then browse your collection without pausing the system.

Is an octa-core smartphone twice as fast as a quad-core one?

No. An octa-core processor is faster than a quad-core processor only when it's running an app that takes advantage of its abilities or when you're multitasking. For example, one core may be at work on your web browsing while another is standing by. A call comes in, and the second core gets to work. Both your web browsing and your phone call continue without a hitch, but not necessarily twice as fast.

In recent market Processors used on Smartphones & Tablets are :

1. Qualcomm Snapdragon : It is a US based company, Qualcomm was the first brand that introduce CDMA technology in the market and actively involved in technology related to semiconductors designing for Mobile devices, tracking devices, satellite phones, Virtual Reality, wireless charging etc. It is widely known for its Snapdragon brand which is responsible for releasing mobile processors & LTE modems.

It first claim to fame in processor market when it released the first 1 Ghz processor that time average speed of most smartphones was only 512 Mhz.

Now a days Snapdragon are come under the 4 Series :

Qualcomm 205 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 450 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 435 Platform

Snapdragon 430 Platform

Snapdragon 427 Platform

Snapdragon 660 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 625 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 845 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 835 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 821 Mobile Platform

Snapdragon 820 Mobile Platform

Qualcomm Snapdragon processors are known for its performance. The processor handles multitasking very well and can handle heavy and intensive processing which is especially good for gaming. The presence of inbuilt Adreno graphics match the performance of processor. Snapdragon processors also produce less heat compared to other processors. Generally Snapdragon processors are costlier than other processors.

2. Apple Mobile Processors : Apple do not manufacture any microprocessors. Instead, they make contracts with processor manufacturing companies mainly Samsung and TSMC for making custom built processors that suits their design and performance expectations.

List of Series used by Apple in Processors :

A Series : The A series is a family of "System on Chips" (SoC) used in iPhones, iPad, iPod touch & Apple TV. They are designed by Apple and manufactured by Samsung & TSMC. They integrate CPU, GPU, Cache memory and other electronics necessary to provide mobile computing functions within a single physical package.

Processors come under A series :

S Series : The S series is a family of "System in Package" (SiP) used in Apple watch. They are designed by Apple and manufactured by Samsung.

Processors come under S series :

T Series : T seriesis designed to use in TouchID sensors in MacBook Pro. The only version released till now is Apple T1.

Processors come under W series :

3. Intel Atom and Core M processors : Intel is an American multinational company synonymous with PC and microprocessors. Atom is the brand name given for the low power consuming and low cost 32 and 64 bit chips manufactured for using in smartphones and tablet devices.

Intel processors are based on X86 architecture which is powerful than ARM, but consume more power compared to ARM architecture. Latest versions of Intel processors did improve the power consumption aspect bringing it down to less than 5 watts which is ideal for all mobile devices. Though Atom processors in the beginning supported only Windows, it now supports all major mobile operating systems.

Intel Atom processors are currently in Atom X5 and X7 series. These chips are 64 bit Quad core processors in 14 nanometer size with speeds up to 1.6 GHz that can be scaled up to 2.4 Ghz.

Intel also released Intel Core M microprocessors which are ultra low-voltage designed for ultra-thin notebooks, mobile devices and 2 in 1 convertibles. The processor consume less 4.5 watts or less power making it ideal for long battery life. These are dual core processors with speeds around 1.5Ghz which can be scaled to 3.2 GHz speeds. Intel Core M processors offer 40% boost in CPU and graphics performance than previous versions.

Intel Atom processors are supported by all manufacturers. The latest Atom processor is mainly used in tablet manufacturers from Microsoft Surface, Asus, Dell, Lenovo, HP. As of 2016, Asus ZenFone series is the only smartphone using Atom processor. Core M processors is used in 12-inch Apple MacBook and HP Chromebook.
