14 DAY TRIAL // With the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S22 getting closer and closer, it makes sense for the South Korean phone maker to give the finishing touches to its new-generation Exynos chip.
Typically, the company unveils its new Exynos chips in the last months of the year, most often November, as it prepares to use them on the refresh Galaxy S models too.
And the same timing seems to be used this year as well, as Samsung has started teasing what seems to be the new-generation Exynos chip in a post on Instagram.
The post, despite not revealing too many details, suggests there’s something big coming on the Exynos front on November 19, when the company could finally take the wraps of the new-generation chip.
Samsung claims “everything changes” with this new chip, explaining the new design is the living proof of “what entertainment will look like in the future.”
The rumors
The new Exynos chip is likely to be the Exynos 2200 that will also be used on the Galaxy S22 and which is the first Exynos processor to come with an AMD GPU. This could be one of the reasons the company claims it could change the world of entertainment on mobile, as the processor could allow for a massive boost in terms of gaming performance.
On the other hand, there are a lot of rumors regarding this Exynos chip on the Galaxy S22.
Samsung has reportedly considered even dropping the Exynos chip completely and going for the Snapdragon model entirely, though given it makes its very own chips, such a decision wouldn’t make much sense. It remains to be seen how advanced the new Exynos will be when it launches on the Galaxy S22, especially when compared to its Snapdragon sibling.
Until then, however, Samsung obviously doesn’t say a single thing about this processor until the November 19 unveiling.
