Samsung and OPPO join hands to develop new mobile processors to compete with Apple
According to a report from GizChina, Samsung and OPPO are planning to cooperate to produce mobile chips themselves to compete with the Apple A series. Previously, OPPO had developed an image processing chip (ISP) by itself called MariSilicon X equipped on OPPO Find X5 series. This chip uses TSMC’s 6nm technology, which can perform 18 billion billion AI calculations per second, surpassing Apple A15. MariSilicon X is currently the NPU chip with the best processing performance in the mobile market.
Samsung’s smartphone division CEO, Mr. Roh Tae-moon
In a previous report, Samsung’s smartphone CEO Roh Tae-moon confirmed that Samsung will develop a new line of chipsets for Galaxy devices. The reason for this decision is said to be influenced by the dismal sales of devices running Exynos 2200 chip. Exynos 2200 is not popular with users due to heat dissipation problems and inaccurate GPS.
The cooperation with OPPO shows that both brands want to compete directly with Apple. Not only OPPO and Samsung, both Xiaomi and Honor, as well as many other smartphone manufacturers, are also planning to develop their own mobile chips. However, everything will lead to consequences, as Android is increasingly fragmented, the fact that each manufacturer has its own hardware will continue to make Android more fragmented, causing a significant impact. to user experience.
Samsung’s next self-developed processor will be developed specifically for future Galaxy models to solve the problem of performance as well as energy saving when compared to other chip lines from Samsung. Apple, MediaTek or Qualcomm.
Through the scandal of GOS (Game Optimization Service), a software that comes pre-installed on Galaxy devices to “squeeze” performance to prevent the device from overheating, Samsung seems to continue to raise hopes for the next generation of chips. Next Exynos.
In the near future, Samsung is expected to launch Galaxy S22 FE and Galaxy S23 series generation equipped with MediaTek chipset. It is not clear if Samsung plans to work with MediaTek in the future to develop Exynos chips.
