News & Reviews:   chipset

It seems that Apple’s upcoming chipset which is the Apple M1X might have been spotted on cpu-monkey.com, giving us a better idea of what to expect when it is available in the global market. Unfortunately, there’s no news on the Malaysia release date, local pricing, and which products will come equipped with the aforementioned chip.

As the pandemic continues to hit the market, it seems that Qualcomm might have a shortage on its semiconductor. In fact, the company themselves gave a warning that they are struggling a bit to meet the demand, as confirmed by CEO Cristiano Amon.

Earlier, MediaTek has unveiled two of its 6nm-based chipsets that are the Dimesity 1200 and 1100. Now, it's time for the manufacturer to announce its mid-range chipsets for this year. According to a source, there will be two new 5G mid-range chipsets coming and they might be based on an older 10 or 12mm process.

Based on a statement by digital chat station on the user’s weibo account, it seems that an upcoming vivo smartphone is expected to come equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset. While not much is known in regards to the exact tech specs, our source did mention that it will most likely be an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 865 chipset.

After announcing the Exynos 2100 yesterday, it looks like Samsung still has another powerful chipset in the works. It is confirmed that the company is creating a new flagship chipset that features graphic technology from AMD. With that said, can the future Exynos chipset finally take a chance to win against Qualcomm's invention?

Samsung has officially unveiled the brand new Exynos 2100 chipset during their live virtual event which took place earlier today. The chipset is one of the first from Samsung to be manufactured using the 5nm extreme ultra-violet process node, which not only makes it much more power-efficient, but it also comes with improved performance.

Technologies nowadays are advancing rapidly and this goes the same for smartphones too. Just recently, popular leakster Digital Chat Station just read some technical data about MediaTek's next chipset and it's said to be more powerful than the Snapdragon 865 chipset.

2021 is no doubt the year for 5nm chipsets to become the staple in the smartphone industry. With Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm already presented theirs, it's time for another huge chip manufacturer MediaTek to do the job. On 20 January, the manufacturer will hold an event to introduce its latest invention.

Based on a statement by a user on weibo, it seems that next year’s upcoming Redmi smartphone could come equipped with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset. While not much is known in regards to the exact nature of the smartphone, it does give us a better idea on what to expect when it is officially available in the global market.

At the beginning of 2021, we'll get to see smartphone manufacturers showcasing their latest devices that come with 5nm chipsets that include Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888, Samsung Exynos 1080, and Exynos 2100. As Apple has already launched the iPhone 12 with the 5nm A14 Bionic chip earlier this year, the tech giant might have now shifted their focus to something more powerful. It is reported that Apple has become the first to contract with TSMC for the 3nm process.
