Just yesterday, we saw the news regarding the Pixel 7 series bringing a new variant besides the standard Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro. Although we're still unsure about it as Google hasn't mentioned anything, there's one thing we can assure you about the upcoming series, which is it's packing the second-gen Tensor chip. Now, it's claimed that the next-gen Tensor will get manufactured by Samsung again.

The news of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ getting delayed to H2 2022 only came out last week. However, the wait might shorten as the latest report tells us that smartphones with the chip could launch as early as next month.

Despite that many smartphones are rumoured to feature the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ made by TSMC, the chip could still face delay. According to reputable tipster Digital Chat Station, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ would only arrive by the second half of 2022.

Besides the TSMC-produced Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, we might also be seeing the 4G variant at the upcoming announcement. According to a well-known tipster named Shadow_Leak, the chip is being prepared though not much information is given.

Most of you know that Samsung ships two different variants of its flagship Galaxy S22 series in different regions. One of them uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon chip, while the other one uses the company's own Exynos chip. However, you might not know that doing so will affect the camera's performance in those two variants, giving them different results when it comes to photography.

Samsung has once again snatched the top spot in the semiconductor industry. According to the latest report, the Korean tech giant surpassed Intel by becoming the world's biggest semiconductor company by revenue in 2021.

TSMC will reportedly enter mass production for the next-generation 3nm process in the second half of 2022. According to the source, the semiconductor manufacturer is on track to supply Apple with its latest technology in 2023.

Previously, rumour has come saying that Samsung will use a MediaTek Dimensity chip for the upcoming Galaxy S22 FE and some Galaxy S23 devices. However, the latest information claims that the Korean tech giant has no plan for the change.

Most of us know that Qualcomm is currently preparing to launch the TSMC variant of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, namely Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+. However, we didn't know that the semiconductor manufacturer is secretly working on another chip as well, and it's the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1.

Samsung has always depended on Qualcomm Snapdragon and its own Exynos for its flagship devices. If this new information were accurate, the Korean tech giant could trust the MediaTek chips to power its flagship lineup in the future, which it has been only using for budget devices.
