Final 12 months we had many ups and downs within the rumor mill in the case of the Samsung Exynos 2300 SoC. The Exynos 2200 failed to satisfy expectations and plenty of anticipated Samsung to cancel its successor. Affirmation got here in November when Qualcomm introduced the Snapdragon Eight Gen 2 for the Samsung Galaxy S23 collection. Qualcomm was the primary to substantiate and never Samsung – The Korean agency in all probability was not proud of that call however needed to go this route. Regardless of rumors surrounding the longer term, and the Exynos 2400, it seems the Exynos 2300 has not been utterly canceled.

To recall, the rumors concerning the Exynos 2300 pointed it as a 9-core CPU. It could be an enormous change over the standard 8-core construction utilized by most smartphone chipsets.  It could carry 1 x ARM Cortex-X3 core, at as much as 3.09 GHz, Four x ARM Cortex-A715 cores at as much as 2.65 GHz, and Four x ARM Cortex-A510 cores clocked at as much as 2.1 GHz. Now, a Samsung chipset with related specs and 1+4+Four core association handed by Geekbench benchmark with the SM-9190 mannequin quantity.  Nonetheless, the frequencies are somewhat completely different on this benchmark. We’ve 1 x core at 2.6 GHz, Four x cores at as much as 2.59 GHz, and Four x cores at as much as 1.82 GHz. Nonetheless, don’t let this distract you, it’s regular for pre-production {hardware}. The precise core association (once more, 1+4+4) is what spoils this chipset for us.

Is that this the Exynos 2300?

The Exynos 2200 makes use of the standard 1+3+Four config, and there’s no 9-core chipset from Samsung – solely the rumored Exynos 2300 and Exynos 2400. Nonetheless, this shouldn’t be the Exynos 2400 as a result of it’s rumored to boast a 1+2+3+Four association and a Cortex-X4 core. So we consider that this needs to be a pre-launch model of the Exynos 2300. What explains its look at this level? Properly, we even have some rumors pointing to the launch of a Samsung Galaxy S23 FE. 

There will not be many particulars on the Exynos 2300 SoC. Nonetheless, rumors prompt it could follow AMD’s RDNA2 structure for the XClipse GPU. Something that goes past that’s simply hypothesis. We are able to’t verify this on a attainable Samsung Galaxy S23 FE. The telephone can be a rumor now, however these rumors have been pointing it to the Exynos 2200. So, we have to digest all these leaks with a grain of salt and look ahead to official information.
