China’s AnTuTu website is the latest to predict that Samsung will once again use an Exynos chipset for some of its Galaxy S24 units next year. Perhaps Europe, Africa and some Asian countries will get the Galaxy S24 lineup with an Exynos 2400 SoC based on Samsung’s improved 4nm manufacturing process.
Most interestingly, the report details the chipset’s detailed specifications. It is said to have a 10 core CPU with a 1+2+3+4 configuration. The main Cortex-X4 core is said to be clocked at 3.1GHz, while the duo cluster will consist of Cortex-A720 cores ticking away at 2.9GHz. Also on board is a set of 3x Cortex-A720 which runs at 2.6 GHz and for not so demanding tasks, 4 Cortex-A520 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz should suffice. All cores are based on the ARMv9 architecture.
As for the GPU, it will feature an updated Xclipse 940 GPU that boasts double the graphics processing units with AMD’s RDNA 2 technology. Since the Xclipse 920 had three WGPs (work group processors) with two compute units each, the Xclipse 940 will likely have six WGPs for a total of 12 GPU cores. It’s unclear if that would be enough to compete with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or if that translates into twice the performance of the Exynos 2200. But it sure seems like a big step forward, as Exynos chips have always lacked graphics prowess.
Additionally, the chip will support LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage, while the new ISP will be able to handle 320MP camera sensors and 8K video recording at 60fps. The new Exynos 5300 modem will probably be integrated.
