Samsung has now unveiled its first-ever ray tracing-enabled mobile processor, rumored to be powering the upcoming Galaxy S22.
Named the Exynos 2200, the new mobile processor was developed in partnership with AMD through Samsung’s very own 4nm EUV production process and carries the Xclipse GPU to allow for full ray-tracing when you’re gaming on the device. “Samsung’s Xclipse GPU is the first result of multiple planned generations of AMD RDNA graphics in Exynos SoCs,” AMD’s senior VP David Wang explained.
GPU aside, the processor will be equipped with a single high-powered Cortex-X2 “flagship core” working together with three Cortex-A710 big-cores and four Cortex-A510 little-cores to provide all-around performance to balance power and efficiency. The image processor can also support camera sensors boasting up to a whopping 200 megapixels.
For now, Samsung hasn’t confirmed exactly which of its upcoming devices will carry the Exynos 2200, so those interested should stay tuned for more updates to come.
Elsewhere in tech, Apple has discontinued its noise cancellation feature for the iPhone 13.
