A Samsung must use a slightly altered (overclocked) version of the chipset Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Qualcomm, recently presented by North American technology. Remember that this will be the processor to equip the Samsung Galaxy S23.
It is also important to point out that the Samsungon par with TSMC is one of the few world manufacturers of processors, being able to manufacture the chipset developed by Qualcomm🇧🇷 In fact, everything points to this materializing, with new information in this regard.
Samsung Foundry will manufacture specific Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for the Galaxy S23
The production of the processor developed by Qualcomm should be in charge of the factories of Samsung Foundrythe branch of the South Korean giant dedicated to semiconductors.
Naturally, these components can be manufactured according to Samsung Mobile’s own specifications for use in its next high-end Android smartphones.
Although as a rule Samsung has equipped its flagships with Exynos processors, developed and produced by Samsung Foundry for the main global markets, there have always been exceptions. More specifically, China, the United States of America and Canada, in whose Samsung Galaxy a Qualcomm processor has always been present.

For 2023 we will thus have the first major paradigm shift. Finally, we will have the same mobile phone with the same technical specifications in any market. That’s the end of discrepancies, slight it is, in capacities and processing.
That said, in all Samsung Galaxy S23 smartphones we will find Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, something already confirmed by both parties. What now comes to light is the fact that Samsung itself (Foundry) produces these chipsets.
Such a hypothesis, indeed possible, comes to give new impetus to the thesis that advanced an overclock for the Snapdragon to equip the next generation of high-end Samsung mobile phones.
Optimized version may be more efficient than the one produced by TSMC

Paying attention to what is advanced on the social network Twitter by the leaker @RGcloudS, the version used by Samsung, and also produced by Samsung, will have advantages over the one manufactured by TSMC🇧🇷 It should be noted that these will be the two factories capable of, and in charge of, producing Qualcomm’s new high-end processors.
In short, we will have a more powerful and / or efficient version of Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, manufactured by Samsung, as well as the standard version of the same processor, manufactured by TSMC.
That said, it is likely that Samsung will effectively produce its own Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. However, differences, if any, will have to be determined in terms of product benchmark tests.
Finally, we have the presentation of the Samsung Galaxy S23 generation in the 1st quarter of 2023, probably in January.
Breaking!The best moment for European users has arrived.The European version of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series is confirmed to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen2, and it is a high-frequency version exclusive to Samsung. Please enjoy it. pic.twitter.com/w6DqCdH30b
