So iPhone 8s will have 7nm and iPhone 8 will have 10nm it looks like.

Herodroid, 24 Jan 20175nm is the lowest possible transistor scale. Its not possib... moreLawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has successfully built a functional 1 nanometer long transistor gate, which the lab claims is smallest working transistor ever made in 2016. Tell that to them. I dare you to tell LBNL 5nm is the smallest transistor scale and couldnt get any smaller.

How come samsung doesn't see server processor market opportunity? Those cloud services keeps hungry of server processors. Just buy AMD

At same time,samsung have think to making ddr5 ram on future?I think new chip match new ddr5 ram.

About time.... they ... loitered a bit more than they should with 14nm... picking up pace is what was needed.

If this chip is very low consumption than previous it will improve battery life capacity

Stondec100, 24 Jan 2017That's exactly what they're doing a 7mm chip would be more ... moreYou do know that most of the energy is ised by the screen (oled and lcd)?

Well there are great technologies for batteries but still too expensive, 7nm processors will have more energy efficiency so not all is bad
Qualcomm quick charge 4.0 its a great deal you can charge your battery 50% in 15min

does not matter how power efficient chips are it is still screen and 3g that take the biggest amount of battery.

Instead of putting efforts in making 7nm chips why not put some efforts towards new technology to increasing battery capacity.
World is happy to live with 14nm and 10nm chips for few years, but everyone wants better battery
