Here are the specs for the upcoming Nvidia Tegra 4

article published on 18 December, 2012

Thanks to Chiphell we have the specs for Nvidia's upcoming Tegra 4 processor. Codenamed 'Wayne,' the smartphone and tablet processor will feature the same quad-core setup as the Tegra 3 plus the fifth ninja 'battery saver' core. The architecture itself will be a Cortex-A15, and the GPU will be "72-core," with 6 times the power of the current chips. Furthermore, and most importantly, ... [ read the full article ]

Tegra 3 companion core held that processor back terribly, I will pass.

I will avoid any tablet that comes with the tegra 4.

I think you're barking at the wrong stalking-horse.

The Samsung Exynos quads are also a lot newer than the Tegra 3; it's only natural that they'd have better performance (hence the new Tegra 4 ^^'). You should check out relevant benchmarks - once they're released - before you make such an uninformed assumption. For example, the Tegra design is very power-efficient.

I'm thinking this is looking pretty sweet. Way more power then one might need in a phone. I too would be concerned about the power saving core as this often degrades performance and offer huge lags between tasks always sleeping and waking up again. Green isn't normally a good thing these days.
