It has been rumored for a few days that Samsung is going to change the name of its mobile chipsets from 2024 or 2025, which has left many wondering whether it is true or not, whether it will work on all of the company’s processors or what it will do. .
Given the many speculations surrounding it, Samsung decided to address the issue with a statement. what are they saying We will expand on this matter a bit, but we can summarize it as follows: Samsung denied that it was going to be called the Exynos Dream Chip.
Exynos will continue to be called the same, with ‘Dream Chip’ being the internal project codename.
In a statement sent to various media and blogs, Samsung said, “The rumor of the rebranding is not true.” The ruling also sees the loss of the Exynos brand and the rebranding of the Dream Chip.
The statement also added, “The above brand name [Dream -ed] It’s just a name for an internal project before once again confirming that rumors of a rebrand are false.
Rumors started circulating with insider Connor (@OreXda) on his account that the X had said goodbye to Exynos and it was time to say hello to the dream chip. He also reiterated this in another issue where he showed a montage of the renamed Exynos chip.
Many blogs began to spread the rumor, although this insider does not have a good leak history with Samsung, although we refrained due to important details. And we didn’t do well; Because Connor himself, Samsung has already gone ahead and explained that. Dream Chip is an internal name onlyIt is not a new name for Exynos.
What do we know about the Dream Chip now and why has it caused such a stir?
The Samsung Dream chip could be the first fully customized Exynos.
Although Samsung hasn’t changed the name of the Exynos, at least in the short term, the ‘Dream Chip’ continues to attract attention. From what we can tell, this is a custom processor for flagship Galaxy devices (Galaxy S and Z series).
Samsung’s Exynos can’t be considered fully custom chips, as their CPUs use the same ARM cores without any modifications. Yes, the alliance with AMD allowed customization of the GPU in the enthusiast range, but Exynos are not 100% customized like Qualcomm or Apple SoCs. Samsung is working to change that and the team behind the Dream Chip project is responsible.
The reason for doing this? Mainly, to find more effective solutions, less hot and more powerful than the competition. Samsung knows these things work against it and users give their Exynos a bad look because of them.
However, Samsung also wants a little more control over the sauces to make upgrades easier. Qualcomm and Apple have already approved, Google itself is developing custom chips and Samsung was not far behind.
When this happens, MediaTek will be the only one of the big companies that stick with ARM cores without customization. Be careful if they don’t have a project going that we haven’t heard of.
