Samsung’s new “Slim Hinge”
Samsung disclosed that it had seen the possibility of slimming down the Galaxy Z Flip 4’s design by using the new Slim Hinge to make it even more compact. Moreover, the new hinge technology allowed the manufacturer to modify the dimensions on Z Fold 4.
Thanks to the new Slim Hinge, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 now has a slightly wider and slightly shorter Cover Screen. It enables a more comfortable experience while typing on the go and doing other tasks on the Cover Screen, without unfolding the device frequently.
These small internal structural and elemental changes are just incremental but play a key role in enhancing user experiences. Samsung’s new redesigned hinge technology comes with benefits to both manufacturing and longevity in addition to making the user experience comfortable.
The last generation of Hinge design made foldable phones possible, and regular improvements and significant updates are ensuring the future of the new form factor of smartphones. With the upcoming foldables, the Korean tech giant will surely introduce an even better hinge with more durability.

TSMC to produce 3nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4: No talks w/ Samsung

Qualcomm may stick with TSMC for the 3nm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor’s production next year. Earlier, the company was rumored to shift to a multi-foundry strategy, but it won’t happen next year. Samsung also has some 3nm clients, but no flagship product has been ordered.
According to China Times, Qualcomm and MediaTek plan to use the second-gen TSMC 3nm process to fabricate Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Dimensity 9400. The new N3E tech offers performance and efficiency improvements over the N3B, which is used in Apple’s A17 Pro.

ATOM
ATOM is known for its industry-leading graphics processing unit (GPU) performance and up to 3.4 times greater energy efficiency compared to equivalent neural network processors (NPU).
Particularly notable is ATOM’s performance in the Global Benchmark, where it outperformed competitors like Nvidia and Qualcomm by 1.4 to 3 times, sparking significant interest.
Earlier this year, Rebellions produced prototypes of ATOM through Samsung Foundry’s “Multi-Project Wafer Service,” which prints various types of semiconductors on a single wafer.
Rebel
Rebellions is also strengthening its collaboration with Samsung, co-developing the next-gen semiconductor Rebel, specialized for Large Language Models (LLM), which is being developed using Samsung Foundry’s 4-nm process.

Tipster DCS notes that the Dimensity 9300 performs well in medium and high-load energy consumption. At the same time, it’s slightly better than Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in high-load mobile games in the same scenario.
Genshin Impact 720p full high image quality is 59.6fps, consuming 4.7W. On the other side, the 8 Gen 3 does better in low-load games, while Dimensity 9300 isn’t far behind.
Dimensity 9300
Fabricated on TSMC’s 3rd-gen 4nm+ process, the all-big core CPU design is the highlighting feature of the Dimensity 9300 processor. It features a prime Cotex-X4 core clocked at 3.25GHz alongside 3x Cortex-X4 cores @ 2.85GHz and 4x Cortex-A720 cores @ 2.0GHz.
