This is the year of 7nm chipsets, and since Apple and Huawei have already released their A12 Bionic and Kirin 980, respectively, all eyes are now on Samsung and Qualcomm. While we don’t know when Qualcomm will take the wraps off the upcoming Snapdragon 8150 SoC, Samsung might have something special for us next week, according to its Twitter account. Are we finally going to get to hear details about the upcoming Exynos 9820 chipset?
The news has come straight from the company’s official Twitter page, which says that the next generation chipset will be unveiled on November 14. Along with the release date, the teaser post hints at intelligent processing. This in line with a recent report that claimed that the Exynos 9820 will have a neural processing unit (NPUs) for helping with AI and deep learning operations. An NPU helps with tasks such as image recognition, image processing, and speech recognition, and in case you didn’t know, even Huawei’s Kirin 980 SoC features a dedicated NPU.
