[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
Lol, I'm sorry but I can only laugh at that notion.

Anyways... about this whole Samsung's Quad-core SoC:

1. A9 32nm SoC with GPU clocked at 400mhz (yes, the GPU is refresh supposedly but that still easily beats Tegra 3 ULP Geforce GPU in raw power.. btw, even the Tegra 3 GPU is nothing more than a refresh from Tegra 2)

Tegra 3 in A9 40nm SoC.. not 32nm.. SO, Nvidia hasn't done that.. been there.

2. Probably the most important information from the press release.

Samsung will license Exynos chips to other OEMs. That's extra competition to Nvidia..... If you look at past history & credential in supply chain... Samsung easily has Nvidia beat in this area. If other OEMs choose Exynos based on Samsung's ability to supply the DEMAND... that's another trouble for Nvidia as that's TWO big rivals (Qualcomm & Samsung) to worry about.. along with TI & Intel.

3. Tegra 3 is the King of Android tablet. So far, we have 3 Tablets that is released (2 just got released this week) and one phone.

Prime has multiple issues... & the other announced products might release at the same time as Samsung's products.

May 3rd is the press event for Samsung, with device or devices releasing soon after (notice the pre-order sites already??).

Also, while Samsung has yet to announce any tablets (except GTab 10.1 2 & GNote 10.1... both are rumored to release with the Quad-core in may/june after their press release) with Exynos 5 series (28nm)...

It is the rumored 11.1in tablet that is supposedly have that SoC. Exynos 5 series is supposedly going on mass production in Q2 of this year... and while this TABLET could be canned or delayed, or simply.. could skip Android and move on to Windows 8...... Tegra 4 is basically in the same situation (probably worse) compared to Exynos 5 series. As in, we don't know jack about it... no benchmark.. not even rumored device to use such SoC. So, this talk of Exynos 5 series is worthless, you should approach Tegra 4 in the same light (unless you really value Nvidia PPT that really doesn't show anything).

Edit: Oh, and Nvidia made a big deal on 4+1 battery saving tech (while we already know based on HTC series that it sucks compared to S4)... Samsung uses High-k Metal Gate (HKMG) low-power process technology (more or less, i consider it as marketing BS like nvidia's) for battery life...

Oh..

http://www.anandtech.com/show/5072/nvidias-tegra-3-launched-architecture-revealed/2 <-- basically on raw power, even the old Mali 400 has Tegra 3 Ka-el Geforce beat.

http://androidandme.com/2012/04/new...80p-displays-25-faster-gpu-and-lte-to-phones/ <--- Tegra 3+ is SMARTPHONE only SoC. Transformer Prime uses AP33 Tegra 3 SoC I believe... Look at the primary resolution display.. "1366 x 800".

http://androidandme.com/2012/04/sma...-tegra-3-and-snapdragon-s4-in-gpu-benchmarks/ <-- just phone benchmark but Tegra 3 is clearly struggling.

Oh, about this whole Tegra 3 has the best battery life in TABLET... well, that's only the case in Android tablets compared against 1st generation tablets/SoC. It fell behind Apple iPad 2 in battery life test, and barely beat out GTab 10.1....

Prime = 10:17

Gtab 10.1 = 9:55

iPad 2 = 10:26

Qualcomm, for whatever reason.. never really participated in Android tablet market (seems different compared to their approach in Win 8 tablets)... but until Samsung releases their quad-core tablet, Prime is barely the KING of android tablet in BATTERY LIFE test as well at this moment.
