Rumor: Samsung may be hiring ex Apple and AMD engineers to design a custom CPU

18 June 2021
The company is reportedly not happy with the performance of ARM's Cortex-X series and is looking to design its own cores again.

What can they do with samsungs new exinos with new core generation and AMD gpu, even same sap 888 is only 100points away in (3d mark) same averted benchmarks.
Snapdragon 888+ gona beat a14 bionic, exynos 2200 gona bury him, even xiaomi gona develop cpu (with samsung) same about Huawei and BBK. Apple is living its last days.

        YES! I guess we will get Volcan rtx soon.

          Apple SoCs (both M1 and A14) are advanced enough to cause concerns for major companies like Intel and Nvidia. People here are stuck in their hatred of Apple.

            Remember Nokia by Microsoft phones?
            Could run well with 0,5GB ram.


              Historically, Apple chips performance are always 1 generation ahead of its competitors, in fact its not a competition anymore, they're literally obliterated. Its time for the competitors to make a game change, they cant playing catch up anymore, they will need to race as equal. I really support Samsung move for join forces with AMD while also exited to see what Quallcomm come up with.

                lmao i seriously doubt it. Samsung is a freaking massive company. Even if one or two of their processors fail, they can just make new one the following year

                  All of these just directs to them seeing Apple as a benchmark to beat.
                  From camera comparisons to this
                  Even Samsung sees Apple bionic as advanced.

                        Apparently Samsung is not satisfied with the performance of the new Cortex-X series

                        Pretty big coming from samsung, who designed and put extremely weak mongoose cores for more than half a decade with extreme overheating and pathetic performance

                          I hope it won't be a fiasco like the last time

                            All this to match SD888.

                              lmao, here we go again with custom Exynos

                                The cortex X1 is a horrible core man I have not seen such a bad core in a while

                                I thought sammy was done with custom cores after the mangoose disaster

                                  5 of 5
