Overview
- Reports Thursday say Samsung will design the Exynos 2800 on its third-generation 2nm process called SF2P+, not on 1.4nm.
- The chip is reportedly targeting a tape-out by year-end, which marks the end of design before manufacturing starts.
- It is expected to power the Galaxy S28 in early 2028 and may use custom CPU cores and an in-house GPU, though Samsung has not confirmed these details.
- Samsung has also reportedly pushed its 1.4nm process back by about two years to around 2029.
- An interim Exynos 2700 for the Galaxy S27 is expected to use the SF2P node as Samsung chases better yields and co-optimizes chip design with manufacturing.
