When Qualcomm made its periodic conference call showing results for the fourth quarter, the brand confirmed that Samsung will again be a great partner of the company and will bring the advanced Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipsets to all of its upcoming flagships — the S23, S23 Plus and S23 Ultra . The information has already been confirmed by the presence of these devices in Geekbench with such a component.
In parallel, it seems that Samsung, even seeing the challenges and problems of having its own platform, the Exynos line, still hasn’t given up on that dream. For years, chipset production was outsourced to the Samsung System LSI division — a separate folder within the Samsung Mobile eXperience division.
Now, according to The Elec, Samsung is highlighting a new development team within its mobile division. The department will be led by Executive Vice President Choi Won-joon, who joined Samsung in 2016 from Qualcomm. In short, the South Korean seems to be targeting the iPhones’ APs, which are consistently better than Samsung’s, and are designed by Apple itself.
Expectations are that Samsung is expected to deliver its first custom chipset exclusive to the Galaxy S series in 2025 —no plans to launch new Exynos chipsets in 2023 or 2024🇧🇷
