Recently, Samsung Semiconductor officially announced that it will officially hold a new product launch conference on January 11, 2022 to launch the Exynos 2200 processor. And in the face of the two competitors who have already unveiled the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and the Tianji 9000, what are the odds of the Exynos 2200?
According to previous news, the Exynos 2200 will use the same Samsung 4nm process as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, and use the same triple set architecture of the two flagship chips mentioned above. The CPU section is equipped with a 2.59GHz Cortex-X2 super core, three 2.5GHz Cortex-A78 large cores, and four 1.73GHz Cortex-A55 small cores. From the perspective of hardware parameters, the highlight of exynos 2200 is that the GPU is partially based on the upgrade of AMD RDNA 2 architecture, running at a frequency of 1250MHz, which can bring stronger game performance; this is also highlighted in Samsung's official copy.
With the release of exynos 2200, I believe everyone is concerned about which flagship mobile phone will debut this chip, not surprisingly or will be released in February 2022 Galaxy S22 series will be the first time to adapt to Exynos 2200. However, there was information before that Samsung will increase the share of galaxy S series models using Qualcomm chips to 50% in 2022. Therefore, the high-end model of the S22 series will use the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, while the standard version will use the previously rumored Exynos 2200 flagship processor.
When it comes to how exynos 2200 can increase its current market share, it is clear that it is still a difficult and long task. According to the smartphone SoC market share ranking in the third quarter of 2021, the Samsung Exynos series has only 5% of the market share, and the once famous Orion may really need a dose of strong medicine.
Speaking of strong drugs, this time Exynos 2200 uses AMD RDNA 2 architecture GPU is undoubtedly quite fierce. However, the strong medicine must be strong to treat stubborn diseases. However, at present, there is news that the GPU performance of exynos 2200 is not as good as the Adreno 730 integrated by Snapdragon 8, and we can only judge whether the Exynos 2200 can be restructured through the test results of the final release model!
