Samsung is among the handful of smartphone companies that manufacture its own chipsets. The South Korean giant has a lineup of processors under the Samsung Exynos brand, ranging from flagship chips to budget or mid-range.

Recently, there were reports that the company will increase the usage of its own chips in the Samsung Galaxy smartphones. It was also rumored to be working on a dedicated chipset for the flagship devices.

Now, a new report coming from Korea claims that Samsung Electronics’ Device Solutions (DS) Division has started the development of an Application Processor (AP), especially for the Samsung Galaxy series smartphones.

Although Samsung has been making Exynos chips for years now, the company has not yet made a processor dedicated to the Galaxy range of smartphones which the company has now decided to work on.

This is similar to what Apple does with the A-series chips, which power devices only from Apple. However, the new AP from Samsung isn’t expected to be available until 2025. Optimization focused on a single product line instead of having a general configuration will definitely help Samsung offer better performance and low power consumption.

So far, the company has been using chips from Qualcomm and MediaTek along with its own Exynos lineup. However, most of the flagship smartphones from the brand come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset and its Exynos chips, depending on the region.

Apart from a dedicated chip for its own smartphones, Samsung is also focusing on expanding the market share of Exynos chips and has decided to adopt its own chips on more and more smartphones coming from the brand.
