The Galaxy S21 models are expected to be powered by Qualcomm and Samsung’s latest and greatest 5nm processors, Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100. While Exynos 2100 is just about to be announced today, as Samsung’s teaser hints at, we already know the specs of the Qualcomm chipset.
The Snapdragon 888 and the Qualcomm X60 modem are made on the latest 5nm process, like Apple’s A14 in the iPhone 12 series. Unlike Apple’s chip, however, Qualcomm’s modem is integrated as a system-on-chip solution, ensuring frugal battery draw compared to tack-on 5G modem solutions like the one found in, say, the 12 Pro Max.
