The reason behind this price drop?

Consumers have complained and have filed a class-action lawsuit against the handset makers, that the company is advertising the phone as the most powerful smartphone yet. Users say that performance management software slows the performance of the premium device.

Tear down indicated that the handset lacked a cooling component called the vapor chamber, implying the increased burden on the performance management software to tackle the overheating issues.

What do the Analysts say?

Analysts say lean toward the software solution and limiting the performance of the device, the cost-cutting could be on companies agenda. This strategy has eroded companies’ reputations as innovators based on hardware strength.

Samsung’s reply –

This controversy represents that rivals are trying to blow the company’s reputation. ” The dispute will inevitably be a big hit to Samsung’s credibility,” said Lee Seung-woo at Eugene Investment and Securities.

Lee said Samsung ” is putting too much emphasis on cutting costs, which led to this unfortunate case.”

However, Samsung said it issued an update to allow users to disable the software with no risk to safety. It also said it would continue to invest to innovate in both hardware and software. Above all this Samsung is very near to selling one million units of S22 smartphones.

Samsung Galaxy S25’s 3nm Exynos 2500 to beat Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in power efficiency

Samsung Exynos 2400

Samsung’s first 3nm Exynos 2500 chip could outpace Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in power efficiency. Both chipsets will power the next-gen Galaxy flagships, scheduled for an early 2025 launch. Recent input suggests that Exynos is returning as a tough rival to Snapdragon.

The Exynos 2500 will be made on Samsung’s 2nd-gen 3nm process technology. The S24’s Exynos 2400 chipset impressed the industry with significant improvements over its predecessor. The company appears to be leveling up the game next year.

Thanks to the cutting-edge process node, Samsung’s next Exynos could finally surpass its Snapdragon counterpart in power efficiency. The company may utilize its advanced FOWLP in the Exynos 2500 to make it run at higher clock speeds at the same power consumption level.

Qualcomm is facing power efficiency concerns with its recent Snapdragon chips. Due to reduced efficiency, phone makers are forced to bring up to 5000mAh battery. Samsung apparently seized this opportunity to bring back its in-house Exynos back to the contest.

Following Google, Meta, Apple and Microsoft, Samsung and Intel joined the race to develop next-gen AI processors. Aimed to lead AI semiconductor tech, both companies launched chips addressing NVIDIA GPU shortcomings, including price and performance per watt.

After completing the development of MACH-1, Samsung has recently started working on MACH-2. The company has also supplied MACH-1 prototypes to major IT firms in South Korea (Naver) and other parts of the world to gather feedback for MACH-2 development.

Intel launched its latest AI semiconductor – Gaudi 3, collaborating with Naver. The company aims to counter NVIDIA GPU drawbacks, particularly in price and performance per watt. Notably, Intel’s Gaudi 3 offers over 40% better power efficiency than NVIDIA GPUs.

Tech giants launching AI chips also prioritize energy efficiency. Google Cloud’s TPU “v5p” is 60% more energy-efficient than similar hardware, with a performance of 459 TFlops. Samsung also prioritizes power efficiency in MACH-1 and MACH-2 development.
