06 April 2021
This version showed up in benchmarks a few days ago, and now a leakster says it's the future.

Dennis.K, 07 Apr 2021Everything you said here is ironic Everything I wrote there is what is really happening.
Guess why you're stuck with a Ryzen 3000 and a Radeon x500. Because, the factory doesn't work.

      So I think they should not have implemented X1 in their first generation, but hey surely wanted to boast of their 25% increase and that the phones are starting to thermally accelerate Xd
      Not because Samsung has manufactured it, an example of this is that MediaTek with its processors only with A78 (without X1) does not have these problems and is manufactured with 5nm TSMC

            Dennis.K, 07 Apr 2021Which is the same thing TSMC does?Yes.

            This means architecture of the SoC has nothing to do with who's gonna manufacturing as the other user blames samsung.

                Power issues are due to bad implementations, like the Mi 11. The Snapdragon-powered Galaxy S21 series don't have this issue.

How about you fix your chronically broken process instead of wasting everybody's time with your nonsense spam on the internet? No one cares! You'll be out of business in a couple years if you stick to this business of fake news and useless manufacturing.

                            The thing is...even the newest Exynos chips this year have actually been good. I wouldn't have minded seeing a gaming phone with the 2100.

                            Either way, a slap in the face to those who bought the 4G Exynos version already...

                              Luckily I have sold my 5G. Cannot even fix the touchscreen issues after 4-5 consecutive software updates.

                                      they should stop making phones with exynos all together or at least give people the option of choosing between them.

                                        Google SoC for Pixel 6/6XL.
                                        Basically the exynos 1080. But custom ISP and NPU by Google.
