Another year, another collection of rumors about the latest iteration of Samsung’s flagship smartphone. The latest rumors claim that the forthcoming Galaxy S6 won’t be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chip that most of this year’s flagships are expected to have. Instead, Samsung will supposedly be equipping around 80-90% of the devices with its own Exynos chip.
Adding to several rumours for the anticipated Samsung Galaxy S6, a new report now states that the South Korean smartphone maker has ditched the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 SoC for its flagship smartphone – though not completely. The rumour comes few weeks after a report claiming that Snapdragon 810 SoC was delayed, and facing issues with heating at certain voltage levels, leading several companies to put their flagship devices on hold. Qualcomm reacted to these reports, rubbishing them and saying the chip was on track. However, Samsung is now being tipped by Digitimes to be using its own Exynos SoC, produced using the 14nm process.
