Samsung has announced that it will have a new processor ready for release next week. Named Exynos 5 Octa, the chip is also being considered to be the right fit for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 device as well. With the Note 3 already having been leaked ample of times and the rumors of release date are also circulating, rumors are unable to decide about the actual processor that will be coming inside the Galaxy Note 3.

Various rumor streams had mentioned the development of Exynos 5420 at the Samsung camp and experts believe it will be the Exynos 5420 that eventually will be launched next week.
