BARCELONA, SPAIN - FEBRUARY 22: A logo sits illuminated outside the Samsung pavilion on the opening day of the World Mobile Congress at the Fira Gran Via Complex on February 22, 2016 in Barcelona, Spain. The annual Mobile World Congress hosts some of the world's largest communications companies, with many unveiling their latest phones and wearables gadgets.

The company's latest Exynos 2100 chipset or Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor are currently the ones that power all these devices. But, the chipset may depend on the device's region of availability. 

However, even if Samsung's Exynos 2100 showed better results compared to the tech giant manufacturer's Exynos 990, the processor is still lacking the power that can beat Apple's latest A14 Bionic chipset, which is currently used in its latest iPhone flagships. 

Samsung's upcoming Exynos processor: release date

Many rumors claimed that Apple's rival is currently focusing on developing a new Exynos chipset that could beat A14 Bionic chip. Speculations suggested that the alleged processor could be launched in the first half of this year, 2021. 

On the other hand, it is important to remember that Samsung's current Exynos 2100 SoC is comparable to the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor. Why? Because they seem to perform the same when it comes to CPU Tests. Although this is the case, the processor still lags in terms of GPU performance.

Previously, Samsung was reportedly working with AMD to enhance the graphics performance on its upcoming Exynos processors. Early results of the alleged chips revealed that it has beaten Apple's latest A14 Bionic chipset by a significant margin.

However, Samsung could still change its planned launch for its upcoming Exynos chipsets. The best thing to do for now is to wait for the company's announcements about its upcoming processors.
