Gizchina News of the week
The company posted a teaser on Twitter, that as you may expect doesn’t reveal much. Instead, we can see the words ānew frontierā and ācutting-edge processorā hinting that this is, in fact, a flagship SoC. Details about the technical specifications of Samsung’s upcoming Exynos chip are still scarce. However, we believe that they will come with a 5nm development process. After all, Samsung Foundry completed the development of 5nm EUV chips earlier this year. According to them, these new chips offer 25% better silicone density, 20% lower power consumption or 10% more power performance.
Rumors already indicate that the Galaxy S11 will ship with a 5nm chipset – The new Exynos or the new Snapdragon 865. Yeah, Qualcomm’s upcoming flagship SoC will also go for a 5nm process, since the giant chipmaker will be partnering with TSMC for the next Snapdragon. TSMC is ready for the 5nm process as well.
