The official Samsung Exynos Twitter account has released a teaser for a new processor. The teaser is an 11-second video that says the new chip is a cutting-edge processor.

There are speculations that this may be the new flagship processor that will power the Galaxy S11 series scheduled for 2020. That processor is expected to arrive as the Exynos 9830.
The Exynos 9820 was announced in the second week of November 2018. While the date for this launch has not been revealed yet, it is still not far off the mark to assume it is a flagship processor that will be announced.
Yet, others say this chipset may be the Exynos 9630, a new processor that will power the 2020 Galaxy A series. Back in August, unconfirmed camera specs for the 2020 Galaxy A series leaked but there was no mention of the processor in any of these devices.
If it turns out that it is indeed a mid-range processor then it may be built on a smaller node size compared to the recently announced Exynos 9611 which is built on the 10nm node.
Even with a new mid-range processor, Samsung will definitely still use some of Qualcomm’s own processors for its phone. We can expect successors to the Galaxy A70 and Galaxy A80 to come with Snapdragon processors.
