Google's "custom" Tensor SoC might be just an unreleased Exynos

06 August 2021
The chipset will be manufactured by Samsung, but it seems like there's more to that company's participation in the project.

Before starting it already has initial differences, and when it accelerates they are even more obvious, sd888 is an oven, but 2100 heats up even without using it, and if you check the specifications it is still behind Qualcomm by a lot since with higher speeds and manufactured in the same process

2100
1x 2.9 GHz - Cortex-X1
3 x 2.8 GHz - Cortex-A78
4x 2.2 GHz - Cortex-A55

888
1x 2.84 GHz - Kryo 680 Prime (Cortex-X1)
3x 2.42 GHz - Kryo 680 Gold (Cortex-A78)
4x 1.8 GHz - Kryo 680 Silver (Cortex-A55)

    99% of comments bashing exynos 2100 are actually written by people who never owns phone with exynos 2100.

    So, lets say its just another "trust me dude" opinions.

      sumdumguy, 07 Aug 2021In terms of raw CPU power Exynos is now on par with SD. GPU... more"AMD's custom RDNA 2 graphics processor for Samsung's upcoming Exynos chipset is showing up to 30% faster performance than the current Mali-G78, found in the Galaxy S21 Ultra with Exynos 2100.
      The second test run saw a 20% decrease in performance and the third 30%. "

      "The new Mali-G710 is at the top. It's 20% faster, 20% more energy efficient than older designs, and it gets 35% boost on machine learning tasks."

      "As for the GPU, Samsung may even be ahead due to the entry of AMD"

      Therefore after the third AMD run the advantage over the current Mali is nil, meanwhile the new generation Mali does have a real advantage, and Adreno has always had even more advantage, so you should not expect much from this collaboration.

          I think that would be the current equivalent of when Samsung launched the exynos 9820 and later the exynos 9825 for the galaxy note 10 series. It is like a plus version of the current exynos 2100

                  can I cook french fries on top of tensor soc since it's rebranded Exynos

                    This makes sense if it turns out true.

                          So there will be plenty of battery life and heating up issues then,all that hype for nothing.

                            Lol, bring on the heating and poor battery life issues :’D all that hype for another crapsung exynos that is rebranded, LOL!

And all the companies from Apple to Samsung, Mediatek and Qualcomm license them from ARM. Sure Qualcomm has some of their magic sauce inside Snapdragon chipsets, but nothing that would stop others from using similar design because they all license almost the same tech from ARM itself.

                                    "Manufactured by Samsung", probably will be a complete fail like every Exycrap and SD' 888 chips that will make your phone into a portable oven.

                                        I think that exynos is great, so is huawei kirin. I dont get the craze over snapdragon.
                                        Only mediatek processors had problems,that too in the past maybe that has changed now.
