Samsung’s semiconductor division has announced a launch event happening next week, where a new Exynos chip could be unveiled. However, tech fans should manage their expectations as sources believe the event is not about the next flagship Exynos SoC.
The announcement for the Samsung Exynos was made through an Instagram post earlier this week. While the company did not mention any specific chipset, it was made clear that the product is designed for gaming and advanced graphics technology on mobile devices.
“Gaming has come a long way. What we used to deem ‘immersive’, relied on a slew of external factors, like the surrounding environment,” Samsung Exynos wrote in the announcement post. The event will take place on Friday, Nov. 19. The exact time and venue were not mentioned, but the presentation is likely to be made available through an online livestream.
Given the hype that Samsung Exynos is trying to build for the imminent launch event, some people think that the announcement would be about the Exynos 2200. However, leakers believe Samsung will unveil a different chipset. Ice Universe is one of the reliable sources saying the event may not be about the Exynos 2200, while Tron speculates it could be the Exynos 1250.
Others also do not see the Exynos 2200 getting announced next week based on the timing of the Exynos 2100’s launch earlier this year. The currently available SoC was unveiled just days ahead of Galaxy S21 series, so they are expecting its successor to follow the same launch time frame. Note that the Galaxy S22 launch is not expected until February next year.
This has been a huge week for Samsung’s semiconductor business. Aside from announcing the Exynos event for next week, the company also officially unveiled its 16GB LPDRR5X mobile DRAM promised to “significantly boost speed, capacity and power savings for future 5G applications.”
Samsung says its LPDDR5X DRAM can process data 1.3 times faster than its predecessor, which translates to up to 8.5GB per second. The memory chip uses a 14nm architecture, which the company says allows it to perform while needing 20 percent less power than the LPDDR5.
