The M1 might be the encouragement Apple’s competitors needed to pursue the development of their own SoCs. With Qualcomm reportedly working on something that is internally called SC8280, Samsung too is not thinking of being left behind. According to the latest report, the Korean giant could launch a new Exynos SoC specifically for notebooks in the second half of this year, and it will feature an integrated AMD GPU.
Specifics of the Exynos chipset were not provided, other than that it will feature an AMD GPU. According to the tipster Ice Universe, Samsung could debut the new chipset in June, though it is likely he was referring to the variant that will eventually be found in smartphones. However, one industry source says the new SoC can be utilized for both smartphones and laptops.
