Samsung shows off 1GHz Cortex A8 core
Author: Jeff27 Jul
If you’ve been paying attention you should know that the iPhone 3GS currently features a Samsung Cortex A-8 processor running at 600MHz. Well, Samsung has come along to show Apple what could have been.
What you see above is Samsung’s latest Cortex A8 core which the company is currently touting as the world’s fastest at 1GHz. Of course, since it’s apparently the world’s fastest, Samsung had to give it the ridiculously appropriate code name of “Hummingbird”.
Perhaps we will see these appear in future smartphones thus blurring the line between smartphones and computers even further.

The device you show is NOT the latest Samsung 1 GHz device. The S5P6440 is an ARM11 device that is available in speeds of 533/667MHz. The “-53″ on the device is the 533 Mhz device.
The 1 GHz Samsung device won’t sample until next year! That is why it isn’t in the iPhone 3G S - it isn’t real yet.
Also it is not the fastest processor , since Qualcomm’s Snapdragon already exists and is sold and run at 1Ghz
moreover the newer dual core Snapdragon series runs at 1.5Ghz.
So please stop spreading fud and verify your sources first.
