News & Reviews:   Exynos

Most of you might already know that the next Samsung Galaxy S23 series will get powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, regardless of the region. However, it seems like the Korean tech giant hasn't given up on its in-house chipset yet, as it forms a new team to focus on next flagship chip's development.

Rumours have been saying that the next generation Samsung Galaxy S flagship series won't feature the in-house Exynos chip. Today, we might have gotten the confirmation from Qualcomm with an executive spilling the tea at a recent conference.

Diablo Immortal is possibly one of the biggest mobile game launches globally. Although it has yet to release in Malaysia (coming soon on 22 June), there is news reporting that Exynos devices aren't able to launch the mobile game at all. 

If this rumour were true, Samsung would stop using the Exynos chips on its flagship devices for quite a while. According to the report, the Korean tech giant will take time to revamp its in-house chips and not release new chips for the upcoming two years.

South Korean tech giant Samsung is reportedly planning to use custom in-house processors specific for its popular Galaxy S series smartphones starting from the year 2025. This plan is allegedly due to the insufficient yields and poor thermal management of the latest generation of Qualcomm and Exynos chipsets.

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.

Previously, Samsung was expected to launch the Exynos 2200 chipset on 11 January 2022. When that didn't happen, some worried that it might not be available on the Galaxy S22 series. However, Samsung has now confirmed that this isn't the case.

Last year, it was rumoured that Samsung would be launching the Exynos 2200 soon. The company's new chipset was expected to be featured in the upcoming Galaxy S22 series smartphones. But a well-known source claimed that it may no longer be the case.

Samsung has been teasing us about an event that is happening on 19 November. With the taglines and captions used, rumours about the upcoming Exynos 2200 chip's launch were roaming around. However, Samsung has confirmed today through its official Twitter account that the date is not for the flagship chip's launch.

Based on a statement by gizchina, it seems that AMD could start manufacturing mobile chipsets in collaboration with MediaTek in the near future. While there is no official information in regards to when will AMD release their first chipset, it does give us a better idea of what to expect from them in the near future.
