While we know Samsung is going to utilize all eight cores of its Exynos 5 Octa processor very soon, the company is struggling to maintain its position in the processor market. According to analysts, Samsung held 9.4% of the market in Q1 of this year and that number dropped to 5.3% in Q3. The problems plaguing the current Exynos is the lack of LTE-A support and, unlike the Snapdragon S800 processor, it can not support shooting 4k videos. Perhaps with the Galaxy S 5, Samsung will be able to ascend back up the AP market with its purported 64-bit architecture.
