Samsung has answered those criticisms with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy. This chipset is a gigantic leap for Samsung, drastically improving its chip capabilities. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy can improve multitasking performance.

Enhanced Battery Efficiency and Camera Support of Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

According to the story by Giz China, it utilizes four high-end cores, providing a smooth experience, unlike the somewhat laggy interface in Xiaomi 13 devices. One of the most noticeable differences between the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and the Exynos chip is the battery life.

The former is well-optimized and strategically designed to enhance its efficiency. Moreover, the camera support is also better. Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has been known to help users take exceptional photos, even in low-light conditions.

Improved Security Algorithms and EMVCo Payments Support With the Samsung Galaxy S23

The stabilized video performance is also said to be a step forward. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset also allows for a more secure phone. The improved security algorithms are a great addition for any user that stores important data on their device. It also includes EMVCo payments support, so users can choose from a wide range of stores.

Samsung has been supplying the processors for Google's flagship Pixel series for quite some time, with one of the latest models being the Samsung Galaxy S23, as explained in an article by Smartdroid.

Reorganizing Internally: Samsung Collaborating with Qualcomm to Improve Pixel Series Performance

While the Pixel series has been no slouch in hardware performance, with the help of the Exynos processor designed by Samsung, it has been questioned why they have yet to be as powerful in gaming and benchmark tests as some other flagship smartphones on the market.

However, recent reports suggest that Samsung is reorganizing internally to make the switch to the Exynos processor and is currently in collaboration with Qualcomm. It is unclear when these changes will come into effect, but it is hoped that the new processor will help to improve the user experience of the Pixel series.

Google's Customization of Exynos Processor to Enhance Pixel Series Performance

While they have been satisfactory in terms of battery life and other functions, the Pixels have yet to 'wow' potential buyers with their performance capabilities. Google also appears to be focusing on customizing the processor beyond the capabilities supplied by Samsung.

Tensor G1, Tensor G2, and the upcoming Tensor G3 all have extra components and enhancements incorporated into them by Google, according to 9to5Google. Whether Samsung's switch to the Exynos processor will make a significant difference to the Pixel series remains to be seen.

But it is certain that it will provide more options for Google when designing the Pixel series and their processors, allowing for the possibility of increased performance and other features that could further enhance the user experience.
