Despite wavering public reception to its Exynos line of mobile processors, Samsung hasn’t stopped working on its in-house SoC, which many might argue has seen better days. With that said though, the South Korean company announced that it signed a multi-year agreement extension with AMD to bring Radeon graphics technology to future Exynos platforms.
Samsung says that this deal will have a particular focus towards gaming as well, stating that it “will bring console-level graphics quality and optimized power consumption to more mobile devices,” to give users an more immersive and long-lasting gaming experiences. According to Seogjun Lee, Executive Vice President of Application Processor (AP) Development at Samsung Electronics:
“Together with AMD, Samsung has been revolutionizing mobile graphics, including our recent collaboration that brought ray tracing capability to mobile processors for the first time in the industry. Drawing on our technological know-how in designing ultra-low-power solutions, we will continue to drive ongoing innovation in the mobile graphics space.”
Samsung and AMD’s collaborative enterprise was first made public back in 2019, which saw the licensing of AMD’s RDNA graphics architecture and the eventual co-development of Samsung Xclipse, a mobile GPU in 2022. Xclipse featured hardware-accelerated ray tracing and variable rate shading features for mobile gaming.
