In 2019 Samsung reached cooperation with AMD, obtained AMD’s RDNA architecture GPU license, this year’s Exynos 2200 processor on the use of AMD GPU technology, but also known as the light of Android, the results of the actual performance rollover, AMD’s powerful GPU performance advantages are not shown.
This loss led to news that Samsung is going to suspend its own Exynos processor, and not long ago Samsung also reached a strategic agreement with Qualcomm, patent licensing extended by 5 years to the end of 2030, and next year’s Galaxy S23 flagship will also be a large number of Snapdragon 8 series processors.
However, Samsung denied the news of Exynos suspension, and now further confirmed that it will continue to cooperate with AMD. Sungboem Park, vice president of Samsung, who is responsible for GPU development, said that the GPU of mobile devices is about 5 years behind compared to the host, and through cooperation with AMD, Samsung can quickly integrate the latest gaming technology into the Exynos 2200 mobile processor.
This year’s Exynos 2200 processor’s Xclipse 920 GPU has is equipped with six computing units, 384 stream processor cores, RDNA2 architecture.
The next generation of Exynos 2300 should use the Xclipse 930 GPU, which will probably have 8 computing units and 512 stream processor cores, and is not sure if it will be upgraded to RNDA3 architecture, which will improve energy efficiency by another 50% and be more conducive to mobile platforms.
From Samsung’s attitude, the Exynos Android Light loss seems not to blame AMD’s GPU head, after all, the overall energy consumption, heat problems are not GPU can not, Samsung’s process and their own architecture optimization or to take the blame.
