There are just a few days left for Samsung to officially unveil its new flagship. It will be the Samsung Galaxy S9 and it will be seen at the Mobile World Congres 2018. An event that will open its doors on February 26 to reveal much of the news that awaits us this year.
However, there are those who have insisted on going a little further. And today there is talk of what could be the processor of the future Samsung Galaxy S10. A device that in all probability will not arrive until the beginning of 2019. There is more than a year, then, for it to see the light.
But let's see what is said about this device and the processor that it will have built into it. Because the specialist media Sammobile has rescued a report based on an announcement recently made by Qualcomm. It suggests that the company's next flagship processor will be a 7nm chip. If this information is true, it's easy to guess that the Samsung Galaxy S10 could become the first smartphone to feature it.
Samsung Galaxy S10, this could be your processor
Yesterday the Qualcomm company introduced a new processor. The Snapdragon X24. It is a new LTE modem that promises to offer download speeds of up to 2 Gbps. According to the firm, this is the first LTE modem in category 20, which offers support for such high speeds. It comes after the first LTE modem that was made with the 7nm FinFET architecture.
The company has explained that the first commercial models of this processor will hit the market later this year. This means that the X24 will not arrive with the Snapdragon 845, which is just the processor that we will see on board the Samsung Galaxy S9. This in theory.
In addition, this chip will only be seen in the North American market. Because in Europe what will come to us will be an Exynos, as has been tradition. In any case, the next chip to be made on the 7nm FinFET node could be the Snapdragon 855. We'll stay tuned.
In any case, we are now much closer to the Snapdragon 845 and the presentation of the Samsung Galaxy S9. In a few days we will be able to confirm the official characteristics.
