Samsung's next flagship mobile processor teased to bring Xbox Series X, PlayStation 5-like graphics

Samsung is touting an interesting take on the upcoming Exynos mobile processor by giving it the power of the AMD RDNA 2 architecture that powers gaming consoles.

Samsung is holding an event on January 11 to announce its next flagship mobile processor, the Exynos 2200. And since there are still a few days to go, the South Korean company - which is also expected to kick off the new year with Galaxy S21 FE- is building hype around the next-generation Exynos processor. And it is making some big claims. Samsung said the Exynos 2200 will use the AMD RDNA 2 graphics architecture, which powers the GPUs inside the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5.

Even though what Samsung is touting is an interesting take on the upcoming Exynos mobile processor, the new GPU inside it will not exactly bring the magic of console-level graphics to the next flagship Galaxy phone. There is a reason why consoles and phones are two different categories of devices for playing games. But do not think of it as a gimmick. The RDNA 2 graphics will allow the GPU of Exynos 2200 to bring better graphics to resource-intensive games. It is just we do not have the specifics at this point.
