Exynos processors may appear on Google smartphones

Samsung Exynos proprietary processors constantly cause dissatisfaction among users: compared to Qualcomm, they

less productive and autonomous. Recently, outraged users even created a petition demanding that Exynos not be used in smartphones. But next year everything could change.

What's new

Samsung will reportedly produce Exynos processors for Google. Initially, the corporation planned to make chips on its own, but eventually settled on Exynos.

True, it will be a completely different platform:with two high-performance Cortex-A78 cores, two mid-range Cortex-A76 cores and four energy-efficient Cortex-A55 cores, as well as a yet-to-be-announced Mali MP20 GPU based on the new ARM architecture, codenamed Borr. Samsung will use the 5 nm process technology.

Google will develop the compute engine, which includes a Google Core ISP and a neural processing unit (NPU) to accelerate AI tasks.

It is not yet clear where such an SoC will be used. Perhaps it will be the new Pixel 6 smartphone or laptops running Chrome OS, in which Google is now installing Intel processors.

Also, Facebook is allegedly interested in partnering with Samsung, which could use Exynos chips in augmented and virtual reality headsets.
