News & Reviews:   mobile chipset

A few weeks back, MediaTek launched the Dimensity 1100 chipset, which can be found in the vivo S10 and the upcoming POCO X3 GT. But MediaTek could be working on a variant of the chipset. In fact, there's a device that's rumoured to feature this Dimensity 1100U.

Remember the piece of Exynos news from yesterday? It's said that Samsung is working on a new Exynos chipset with AMD GPU that will be used in laptops. A reliable source has said that this is the Exynos 2200 chipset, which will also be used in other devices.

Most of you are familiar know about MediaTek, Qualcomm, and Samsung chipsets. But what about smaller companies like Unisoc? Unisoc is a Chinese chipset manufacturer and it just announced its new Tanggula 7 series, which are 5G chipsets for mid-range devices.

To bring down costs, companies sometimes go back to older products and improve them. That has been the case for Qualcomm, which launched the Snapdragon 870 chipset. Now, a Snapdragon 860 chipset has also been revealed.

Many of you know about the chips that go into your phone. But did you know that Qualcomm doesn't actually churn out its own supply of chipsets? The powerful Snapdragon 888 is manufactured by Samsung, and that will also be the case for the new model.

When Samsung launched the Galaxy S21 series last month, many wondered how well the Exynos 2100 chipset would perform. In particular, early reviewers found that the phone's battery performance was better than expected. Now, more tests show that this is the case.

When the Exynos 2100 chipset was announced, many were sceptical about its performance. But recent reports prove that the chipset has been a pleasant surprise so far. Now, sources claim that Samsung wants to take a step further on the GPU side with a partnership with AMD.

Rumours of MediaTek's next chipset has been around since November 2020. Allegedly, the chipset will be on par with the Snapdragon 865 and will launch on 20 January 2021. At first, it was believed that MediaTek would only launch one, but now there are hints of another chipset.

Many countries are pushing 5G heavily, but 5G devices tend to be more expensive. As a result, chipmakers are starting to make cheaper options like mid-range 5G chipsets. Now, Qualcomm has gone one step further by unveiling the entry-level 5G chipset - the Snapdragon 480.

Benchmark scores aren't everything, but they can tell us how well a device could perform. And when it comes to the Snapdragon 888 chipset, things are looking promising. Qualcomm has just shared a comprehensive list of benchmark scores, showcasing the prowess of the new chipset.
