As a curious fact that comes in relation to the news, in South Korea, an executive from Samsung LSI tried to sell confidential information related to the company's 14nm and 10nm chip manufacturing process to competitors in China. He was eventually arrested by the local police, while the executive remains on trial by Samsung for supplying information stating that Samsung's Galaxy S8 will use the 10nm architecture in its SoC.
Additional information has been received in this regard, which may or may not be from the same confidential documents that that executive leaked. Is a almost movie story to imagine it happening as an executive in his suit and tie tries to escape from the Korean police with those documents in hand or on a USB stick. Outside of various stories, thanks to this we know that the Galaxy S8 could use an Exynos 8895 10nm processor.
This Exynos 8895 chip with 10nm architecture, would be paired with the latest Mali-G71 GPU. It has been said that the new graph is twice as powerful as the previous Mali-T880 used in the Galaxy S7. It is also faster than the one Qualcomm would have prepared with its GPU at 10nm, that of the Snapdragon 830, which would be presented sometime next year.
Anyway, it remains in the rumor that this Mali GPU surpasses Qualcomm's Adreno, so we will wait for official confirmations. The Mali-G71 GPU uses a new architecture called Bifrost and is designed as an end-to-end solution for 4K content and VR experiences. It also offers support for Vulkan, OpenGL ES 3.2, GPU Computer, and Android RenderScript. Its clock speed is 850 MHz and it offers twice the power of the Mali-T880 GPU.
With this mobile graphics, the Korean manufacturer could equip the Galaxy S8 with 4K screen resolution, enhance the experience of VR and high-resolution videos. About the Galaxy S8, here you go Get more info.
