Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3

Recently, we heard that Samsung is to launch its third foldable device this year, maybe it’s a rollable smartphone, as rumors suggest. Well, the latest information comes from a trusted tipster Ice Universe.

As per the report, the next-generation foldable devices Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 will use Qualcomm’s unannounced Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ processor. In addition to confirming the processors for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4, tipster has revealed that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ will be powered by TSMC’s 4nm process.

The vanilla Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, which powers the Galaxy S22 trio in some areas, should also be as power-efficient as the 4nm chipset and its upcoming “plus” version, you might argue. However, you should also note that this is a processor made by Samsung.

The chip manufacturing technology of the Korean company is always lower than that of TSMC. Both the latest Qualcomm flagship chipset and Samsung’s alternative Exynos 2200 are power-hungry processors due to Samsung’s low technology.

TSMC is far ahead of Samsung in the manufacture of contract chips. Taiwanese giant is a specialized manufacturer of Apple’s A and M series processors. And, Qualcomm would also have preferred to build the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 over Samsung if not for the huge component shortage problem last year.

American chipmaker TSMC can only make Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+. However, the next-generation (3nm) processors from Samsung are leaving in favor of TSMC. Apparently, time is running out for Samsung’s foundry division. If this trend continues, the Korean giant will soon make only its own Exynos chips.

The Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 could break the cover anytime in the third quarter of 2022. We are also hearing about Samsung launching its third foldable device this year. Maybe it’s a rollable smartphone, as recent rumors suggest. If these rumors are true, we will have to hear more about this phone in the coming months. We will keep you informed from time to time.

Samsung may not debut Exynos 2400+ with Galaxy S24 FE: Tipster

Published

Samsung Galaxy S24

Rumor spreading that Samsung may debut an Exynos 2400+ chip with Galaxy S24 FE is fake. Tipster OreXDA claims that Samsung won’t bring any mid-cycle iteration of its Exynos chipset, however, improvements to power efficiency and yield are likely.

Reports surfaced claiming Samsung could bring Exynos 2400+ chip to the Galaxy S24 FE. As we didn’t see much happening in the past, the segment would continue as it has so far. Hence, no Plus, Pro, or Ultra iteration of Exynos would launch this year.

The rumor claimed that Exynos 2400+ may bring up to 10% power efficiency and yield boost. The tipster noted that the chipset may be marketed with Plus branding for promotional purposes. However, it would hurt Samsung’s chip distribution strategy.

If this happens, Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus users would think robbed. We’ve seen such happening with the Galaxy S22 and S23 FE flagships. While the former debuted the Exynos 2200 chip, the latter was equipped with its enhanced variant paired with a larger cooling chamber.

Samsung won’t fade its reputation just for silly marketing purposes. The Exynos 2400 is a tough competitor to its Qualcomm counterpart, which we haven’t seen in previous generations. Samsung’s enhanced process and yield would benefit it before the S24 FE arrival.

Exynos 2400 used in S24 and S24 Plus features a 10-core architecture. It’s fabricated on Samsung’s 4-nanometer process technology and has 1 core Cortex-X4 at 3210 MHz, 2 cores Cortex-A720 at 2900 MHz, 3 cores Cortex-A720 at 2600 MHz, and 4 cores Cortex-A520 at 1950 MHz.

Samsung and Synopsys announced their collaboration for 3nm AI-powered mobile chip. Both companies announced they had accomplished the production tapeout for a Samsung high-performance mobile SoC design.

According to AnandTech, future Samsung mobile SoCs could get flagship CPU and GPU, with 300MHz higher performance using Synopsys.ai full stack AI-driven EDA suite.

The report also hints a broad portfolio of Synopsys IP on Samsung Foundry’s latest 3nm Gate-All-Around (GAA) process technologies will further empower the company’s mobile AI processor portfolio.

The combination of Synopsys.ai EDA suite, Synopsys Fusion Compiler RTL-to-GDSII solution for PPA, and Synopsys DSO.ai was critical to achieving these goals, reports embeddedcomputing.

“Our longstanding collaboration has delivered leading-edge SoC designs. This is a remarkable milestone to successfully achieve the highest performance, power and area on the most advanced mobile CPU cores and SoC designs in collaboration with Synopsys,” said Kijoon Hong, vice president of SLSI at Samsung Electronics.

“Not only have we demonstrated that AI-driven solutions can help us achieve PPA targets for even the most advanced GAA process technologies, but through our partnership we have established an ultra-high-productivity design system that is consistently delivering impressive results,” Kijoon Hong added.
