【CNMO News】Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series flagship chips produced by Samsung Electronics and Samsung's own Exynos series flagship chips have been criticized for the problem of excessive heat caused by poor power consumption control, which has also made Samsung Electronics saddled with the black pot of "imperfect process". But recently, according to Korean media reports, some Korean experts said that in fact, the reason for the overheating of these chips is not the Samsung process problem, but the problem with the ARM core design used.

Some South Korean industry insiders pointed out that the AP processors of flagship chips such as Qualcomm Snapdragon and Samsung Exynos are based on ARM architecture design and are used in most Android flagship mobile phones. But these phones have problems with heat, performance and power consumption, and chips produced in Samsung Electronics and TSMC have been shown to have similar problems, so the reason for these problems is due to design rather than manufacturing.
Perhaps this statement has some credibility, because the MediaTek Tianji 9000 chip, which also uses arm core design, although it uses TSMC's process technology, it will also have similar heating problems to Qualcomm's flagship chips in the face of high loads. Of course, professionals also point out that these problems are the result of a combination of factors such as the manufacturing process, AP processor design, peripheral components, and the performance of the smartphone itself.

However, there are excellent examples such as MediaTek Tianji 8100, and it is believed that as long as chip manufacturers strive to control power consumption, continue to optimize the design, and control the current situation of large heat generation of flagship chips, there is still hope.
