Un altro assaggino di quello che i produttori saranno in grado di mostrare al MWC 2012 viene ora da Texas Instruments che rende disponibile in un video una comparativa tra il nuovo OMAP 5 e Tegra 3.



Il video mostra due tablet basati su Android 4.0 sui quali gira il medesimo benchmark web: i risultati che si vedono sono eccezionali (anche se, sinceramente, per falsare quel banchmark basta farlo girare una volta per avere in cache gran parte dei dati).

Ci sono due varianti del SoC OMAP 5, entrambe realizzate con processo costruttivo a 28 nanometri.

L'OMAP5430 è pensato per gli smartphone che necessitano in primis di dimensioni ridotte, mentre il modello OMAP5432 è realizzato per prodotti consumer per computazione mobile, quando il costo basso è più importante delle dimensioni ridotte.
