Samsung has got a new entry into the chipset game. The latest related news we heard was when the South Korean tech giant confirmed the start of production of the 2nd-gen 14nm chip. That batch included the SD820. This time, the company has begun mass-producing the 14-nanometer Exynos processor with full connectivity integration. Specifically, this application processor (AP) is a one-chip solution ideal for more low-end smartphones.
As the second biggest chip maker in the market today next to Qualcomm, Samsung is once again using the 14nm process for an Exynos series targeted for the mid-rangers. The new chipset is believed to be for budget-friendly phones, allowing them to be more powerful, fast, energy-efficient, and ready for the Internet of Things. Officially known this early as Exynos 7570, this quad-core chip is described as more efficient and more powerful by 30% than its 28-nanometer predecessor.
As expected, this one is also ready for the standard connectivity features like GNSS, Cat 4 LTE modem, FM radio, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. It’s a one-chip solution which means it’s packed with more features, allowing OEMs to build a slimmer or thinner device. Aside from allowing a sleeker design, the new chip also supports Full HD video recording, playback, 8MP and 12MP cameras, and WXGA display resolution.
