Samsung could launch flagship and mid-range Exynos chips with AMD GPUs sooner than expected

On paper, the Samsung Exynos 2100 has a better processor than the Snapdragon 888. It has one Arm Cortex X1 core with clock speeds up to 2.9GHz, three Cortex-A78 cores, and four Cortex-A55 cores. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 has a similar architecture, but slower clock speeds.

The Snapdragon 888 is equipped with the Adreno 660 GPU, which the chipmaker claims is 35% faster and 20% more power efficient than its predecessor. The Exynos 2100 has the Arm Mali G78 GPU, and while it is obviously an improvement over the Exynos 990 Mali G77, it is still not good enough to take on the Adreno 660 GPU. This could change with the Exynos 2100 and The successors of the Exynos 1080.

AMD helps Samsung build mobile GPUs and chaebol chaebol Chairman of System LSI Business at Exynos 2100 unveiling confirmed that the “next flagship” will feature an AMD GPU. It wasn’t entirely clear if he was referring to the next flagship chip or the next premium phone and he also stopped before revealing the launch date. We now seem to have all the answers, thanks to a new tweet.

While the tweet is thin on specific details, it seems to imply that we’ll be seeing the next Exynos 2xxx and Exynos 1xxx chips earlier than expected and that makes us wonder if Samsung’s next flagship smartphone, which is presumably the Galaxy Z, is Fold 3 and not the Galaxy Note 21, will have a new premium SoC under the hood.

Samsung’s next flagship silicon would be known internally as the Exynos 9925 and other than that nothing else is known about it.

When it comes to AMD GPUs, expectations are quite high, as the benchmark results revealed suggest they will. outperform Adreno GPUs.
