Mediatek wants 10 and 12 core processors
The manufacturer of SoC for mobile devices MediaTek has had an impressive success in the market as the supplier of processors for practically all Chinese-based smartphones and tablets, as well as being present in some European manufacturers such as bq. Now they are planning to launch processors with up to 12 cores.
MediaTek has been the manufacturer of mobile SoC that has bet the most on multicore processing, let's remember that its MTK 6592 was the first of 8 cores to use all of them simultaneously. Seeing the success of MediaTek with such a configuration, the rest of the manufacturers such as Qualcomm (not without first mocking what it would end up doing) and Samsung joined the trend of offering 8-core processors although to a lesser extent.
Now MediaTek wants to go further by being the first manufacturer to launch processors with 10 and 12 cores that could arrive in 2015, it is not known if they would all work simultaneously or would do it with a big.LITTLE configuration.
