Interesting technical article. Obviously this is the battle for the foundry's next premier process and having a proper 14nm process might just help FD-SOI get some traction over all the hybrid 14/16-20nm Bulk Finfet processes planned by TSMC and Samsung with Globalfoundries being the potential beneficiary if FD-SOI is as good as Asenov claims although he has been known to be biased in his past pronouncements .

There has been a dual-core 2.5 GHz A9 released at 28nm FD-SOI which is the fastest A9 released so far.

ST Micro are releasing a dual-core A15 with Power VR6 next.
