Samsung working on next-gen Tensor for Google Pixel 7, alongside Exynos 1380
After the launch of Tensor, Google‘s first processor with Pixel 6, many rumors started surfacing online about the next generation Tensor SoC. The latest report suggests that Samsung is working on a next-generation Tensor chip for Google Pixel 7.

In partnership with Samsung, Google developed its first own processor for the Pixel 6. Obviously, the upcoming Google Pixel 7 will also have a Samsung factory processor. However, the Tensor 2 codenamed revealed on a developer board is Cloudripper.

According to the report, Samsung is currently working on a chip with model number S5P9865 chip and the codename is Ripcurrent for a development board. The codename for the chip may be Zuma.

Surprisingly, the S5P9865 also maintains a predictable line in terms of numbering (9865). The first Tensor SoC turned out to be the S5P9845 – the S5P9855 we wrote about was still not fully understood. It may only be a slightly improved second-generation Tensor SoC later, but we can’t confirm that either.
Since this will be the second chipset from the US tech giant, we can undoubtedly expect more power efficiency and performance. However, the report risks nothing other than a claimed increase in the efficiency of production CPUs, which does not improve performance.
Furthermore, Samsung is reportedly working on the Exynos 1380 mobile platform, which is expected to launch alongside the upcoming Galaxy A54 smartphone. The successor of Exynos 1280 (S5E8825) is under testing with product codename S5E8835.

Samsung has unveiled two new battery packs with powerful performance using recycled materials. The launch, scheduled for the 19th, introduces the PD Battery Pack 20,000 mAh and the PD Wireless Charging Battery Pack 10,000 mAh. Both of these battery incorporate 30% UL-certified recycled plastic in their design, marking a stride in reducing carbon emissions.
The ‘PD Battery Pack 20,000 mAh’ offers a high capacity for charging, with a maximum output of 45W and three USB-C ports, allowing for simultaneously charging multiple devices. However, the actual charging speed may vary based on several factors, including the devices connected and charging conditions.
On the other hand, the ‘PD Wireless Charging Battery Pack 10,000 mAh’ provides the convenience of wireless charging, along with a wired charging capability of up to 25W. It comes with two USB-C ports, making it possible to charge up to three devices at once when combining wired and wireless charging.
Both battery packs comply with the USB PD 3.0 standard, ensuring quick and efficient charging for Samsung Galaxy products and other compatible devices.
The LPDDR6 market is expected to bloom as early as next year, as the new on-device AI memory is on the way with the latest LPDDR6 standard finalization taking place in Q3 2024. If the standard is confirmed in the third quarter, LPDDR will secure a new standard for the first time in five years.
Going toward the details, the International Semiconductor Standard Organization (JEDEC) recently held discussions on the next-generation mobile RAM standard. The meeting proceeded with the finalization process to finalize the LPDDR6 standard.
An official in the semiconductor industry said,
- “We have held various discussions to confirm the LPDDR6 standard specification,” and it will be released in the third quarter of this year.”
To be mentioned, the JEDEC is a private organization that establishes semiconductor standards, that is, sizes and specifications, and more than 60 people from memory, system semiconductor, and design asset (IP) companies participated in this Lisbon meeting.

Furthermore, the LPDDR6 standard will be established with a focus on improving data processing performance as the demand for on-device AI to perform large-scale AI calculations on smartphones, laptops, and tablet PCs is rapidly increasing. In addition, the power consumption standard will also be improved.
However, once the LPDDR6 standard is confirmed, major memory manufacturers such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix are expected to begin commercializing their products in earnest.
Microsoft has announced the launch of a new AI chatbot that can help finance workers with common tasks in Excel and Outlook. The Copilot for Finance is currently in public preview and will be available for purchase soon.
The Copilot for Finance is part of Microsoft’s vision to empower every department with a Copilot, a smart assistant that can generate natural-sounding text or other content with minimal human input.

As per the information (via CNBC), the Copilot for Finance can perform functions such as variance analysis, data reconciliation, and collections process in Outlook, using data from SAP and Microsoft Dynamics 365. Microsoft plans to add more features to the Copilot for Finance later this year.
Microsoft’s corporate vice president Charles Lamanna said that the Copilot for Finance was developed with input from Microsoft’s finance department. He also said that the Japanese advertising agency Dentsu will be one of the first customers to use the Copilot for Finance.
