The Exynos 9820 features a fourth-generation custom CPU, 2.0-gigabits-per-second (Gbps) LTE Advanced Pro modem, and an enhanced neural processing unit (NPU) to bring new smart experiences to mobile devices and tablets. The Exynos 9820's new fourth-generation custom core delivers around 20-percent improvement in single core performance or 40-percent in power efficiency when compared to its predecessor which can load data or switch between apps much faster. The Exynos 9 Series 9820 is expected to be in mass production by the end of this year. This is very similar to what Huawei has done with their SoC.
