Despite the fact that Qualcomm has confirmed that the Galaxy S23 series would solely rely on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, Samsung has not yet indicated whether or not it will completely stop using the Exynos 2300 SoC. As a result, there is still a possibility that the secret chipset that Samsung is working on will end up powering other smartphones, such as the forthcoming Google Pixel 8.

OreXda, a user on Twitter, has posted the design layout of an unidentified Exynos system-on-chip. The chip is said to contain a variety of various parts, including a processor, modem, as well as graphics, and other. Another user even analyzed the likely composition of the CPU, which may consist of four cores optimized for performance and four cores optimized for efficiency. The fact that there is also a ninth core that is dedicated to handling idling jobs comes as a surprise to us.

A chip made by Samsung that could compete favorably with Apple’s M2. It is unknown whether the system-on-a-chip in question is the Exynos 2300, which is scheduled to be released in the following year, or whether it is one of the successors that are anticipated to make their appearance in approximately two years. Despite this, the source reveals that it is one of the most advanced and potent chipsets that Samsung’s new “Dream Team” has developed.

The Korean company has organized and delegated work to a group in order to create a world-class proprietary silicon that is capable of competing with products like Apple’s M2 series. It has been hypothesized that the Samsung Galaxy S25 will be the company’s first smartphone to have such a chip.

It’s possible that Google’s Pixel 8 could still be powered by Samsung’s Exynos 2300. (Pro) It is believed that Google’s Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro will make use of Tensor G3, which will be built on Exynos 2300. It is speculated that Samsung will produce it in a manner analogous to that of the first and second generations of the Tensor. It is not apparent whether any of the capabilities that were mentioned would ever be implemented.
