Samsung is the second-biggest contract chip manufacturer globally, and its current best fabrication process is 5nm LPE. The company was expected to start manufacturing chips using its 3nm technology later this year. However, the plan seems to have been delayed by one year, and the company now expects to start the mass production of 3nm […]
Samsung had confirmed earlier this year that it would launch a new Exynos processor that will use AMD's Radeon GPU. The company has been in collaboration with AMD for the past two years to develop a powerful mobile GPU that is better than ARM's Mali series. However, it wasn't clear if the processor would be […]
It was rumored last year that Google could dump Qualcomm's Snapdragon processors in favor of its in-house smartphone chips. The internet advertising giant has reportedly partnered with Samsung to make a high-end processor for Pixel smartphones. The first signs of the upcoming processor have now started appearing, and it looks like we might see it inside the […]
Qualcomm's latest smartphone chipsets, including the flagship Snapdragon 888 processor and Snapdragon X65 5G modem, are made using Samsung's latest fabrication technology. It is now being reported that Qualcomm will launch its most premium mid-range SoC that will be made using Samsung's 5nm process technology. According to Qualcomm's own press release (which was later pulled), […]
Samsung, which is among the world's biggest semiconductor chip manufacturers, makes chips for brands like AMD, IBM, Nvidia, Qualcomm, and others. In the past, it used to fabricate processors for Apple as well. It is now being rumored that it will expand its clientele later this year to include Huawei. A new report coming out […]
Samsung wants to dominate the global semiconductor market. The company has been investing heavily in its facilities for this very reason. It's also aggressively seeking new clients in a bit to steal them away from TSMC. Tesla has been on its own disruptive mission. It seeks to completely eliminate gas-powered vehicles with electric alternatives. It's […]
Samsung's aggressive pursuit of the next coveted die shrink in the semiconductor segment is likely to result in another large-scale expansion in the United States. Meaning it's just a matter of time when the tech giant will be in a position to offer direct support to the new administration. And a White House with a […]
Apple's event yesterday was highly anticipated. For some, it was far more interesting than the new iPhones that were launched a few weeks ago.

The Exynos 1080 is built using Samsung's 5nm […]
It was reported last month that Samsung lost Qualcomm's 5nm chip orders to TSMC. However, it turns out, Samsung Foundry has managed to clinch the deal to manufacture all Snapdragon 875 chipsets. The company will use its 5nm EUV process to make Qualcomm's next-generation flagship mobile processors. According to a report from Hankyung, the size […]
Samsung announced the completion of its 5nm process node last year and started setting up new production lines thereafter. It was then said that the company will begin mass production of 5nm chips from Q2 2020. An earlier report had revealed that Samsung will manufacture the Snapdragon 875G and the Snapdragon 735G chipsets for Qualcomm […]
Samsung Foundry is trying hard to catch up with TSMC over the past few years. While its Taiwanese chipmaking rival has already started the mass production of 5nm A14 chips for Apple, the South Korean firm is reportedly still struggling to improve the yield of its 5nm process. According to a new report from DigiTimes, […]
Samsung confirmed a couple of months ago that it would start manufacturing chips on the 5nm process node from Q2 2020. The Exynos 992 is expected to be built on this process technology. It's the chip that we might find inside the Galaxy Note 20. Can we expect it to be business as usual when […]
In a race to become the world's largest semiconductor firm by 2030, Samsung has announced that it will start building a new 5nm chip production line in Pyeongtaek, South Korea.
