Through the benchmark, it has been confirmed that the Meizu MX5 will run on the MediaTek MT6795T SoC, which is also a chip that is known as the Helio X10. Apparently, the MediaTek Helio X10 that runs within the Meizu MX5 does offer some rather outstanding multi-core performance, as it picked up approximately 5,200 points in multi-core tests, which would pretty much place it at the cream of the crop.
All eight ARM Cortex-A53 cores can work as and when required, resulting in impressive multi-core performance. The thing is, when will software developers come up with apps that will require all eight cores to work at once? After all, it is not as though the world is running on such hardware architecture, so real world performance would not see quite an impressive boost, so buyer beware!
