Samsung refutes rumors about in-house development of CPU cores

Yesterday a report from South Korea claimed Samsung is restarting its own high-end CPU core development unit and will have custom processor cores by 2027. However, now company representatives reached out to us to refute that report.

Here is the full quote:

A recent media report that Samsung has established an internal team dedicated to CPU core development is not true. Contrary to the news, we have long had multiple internal teams responsible for CPU development and optimization while constantly recruiting global talents from relevant fields.

The statement also indicated that Samsung will keep working with Arm to use its stock CPU cores in future smartphones, as the British semiconductor company recently disallowed manufacturers to make changes to core designs.

The limitation will apply to all chips used by Samsung for its Galaxy smartphones – in-house Exynos, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon or Dimensity and Helio by Mediatek.
