The concept behind it’s to carry the chip design workforce beneath the Samsung MX umbrella to allow them to all work on bettering the Exynos chips’ efficiency and total person expertise. Samsung’s Foundry enterprise will nonetheless be manufacturing the SoCs, although.
Nevertheless, there appears to be inside disagreement over that transfer, the report suggests. Some oppose the choice, others are on board. In any case, such restructuring requires plenty of planning.
