A growing number of companies are working on smartphones with thinner profiles as users seek more modern devices with a sleeker look. While we have been hearing about Samsung working on a "Slim" version of the Galaxy S25 for a while, the South Korean tech giant is not the only company that is trying their hands on a thinner smartphone, as Apple is reportedly working on an iPhone 17 "Slim" version to come out in 2025 and that might potentially come in place of the iPhone Plus. A recent listing shared on the smartphone database reveals that Samsung is in […]

Samsung Electronics employees believe that the company's semiconductor division is "in crisis," associating it with inefficient management and increasing competitiveness. Samsung's Performance In The Markets Is Simply Due To How Executives Are Focused On Short-Term Goals, Reveals Firm's Employees Well, the Korean giant is undoubtedly having a hard time establishing ground in the industry, whether through its semiconductor division or even in the HBM business. Samsung's quarterly performance fell short of expectations, too, and the company even publicly apologized for its dwindling business, which shows that Samsung is indeed not doing so well in the industry. Now, a survey conducted […]
The recent yield problems with the Exynos 2500 suggest that Samsung may not mass produce the chipset fast enough to use it in its upcoming Galaxy S25 series, which is slated to launch in early 2025. The Korean giant’s woes surrounding its 3nm GAA process are hardly a closely guarded secret, with the company failing to attract new customers and losing millions of revenue in the process. Proceeding forward, a new report states that Samsung intends to cut its losses and shift focus on its second-generation 2nm node, which will be used for an unnamed Exynos SoC codenamed ‘Ulysses’ and designed […]
Intel Foundry has reportedly approached Samsung for a "foundry alliance" in an attempt to form a collaborative strategy to counter TSMC's growing influence in the industry.

The situation at Samsung has gone from bad to worse because employees are looking for more reasons to find opportunities outside of the Korean giant’s foundry business. Shortly after posting its Q3 2024 earnings guidance and issuing an apology regarding its poor performance for the quarter, there are all sorts of discouraging information surrounding Samsung, with the latest one being that around 200 engineers applied to SK hynix for a position that required experienced personnel. SK hynix only had vacancies for three people; Samsung engineers with little experience in the foundry business are also attempting to transfer Despite Samsung reportedly reducing […]
Korean technology giant Samsung Electronics' chip manufacturing division is likely to lose out to TSMC in terms of revenue after it releases its third quarter earnings, according to reports in the Korean press. This will mark a sharp contrast over the second quarter results, which saw a recovery in the global memory market and propelled Samsung's chip making division, called the Device Solutions division, to the top of the global foundry pyramid. Korean analysts believe that Samsung DS' third quarter revenue will fail to grow sequentially, and since TSMC's Q3 revenue jumped by 12.9% over the previous quarter, the firm […]
It has not been long since Samsung launched its Galaxy Z Fold 6, which users were looking forward to. Contrary to the expectation, the new model did not undergo a major design overhaul and instead shared many similarities with its predecessor. This came as a disappointment for users, especially when the competition in the foldable market is getting intense, and the technology keeps on advancing. The company did acknowledge its lack of innovation and even issued a public apology for it. Now, the South Korean firm has stepped up its game by unveiling the much-awaited Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition. […]
The chipset choice rumors for the Galaxy S25 series are going all over the place, as previously, it was rumored that Samsung would exclusively launch the upcoming lineup with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 as its Exynos 2500 will not be ready due to poor yields. Then again, we should brace ourselves for a potential twist in the future launch because a new rumor claims that the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus will arrive with the Exynos 2500, leaving the Galaxy S25 Ultra the only version to ship with Qualcomm’s high-end SoC. A previous rumor claimed that the base Galaxy […]

While the company did not explicitly name its clients, Samsung was recently reported to have postponed the delivery of the Dutch firm’s equipment for its Taylor plant in Texas. The Korean giant has been experiencing a major slump in the foundry business, as it has failed to seal a deal for chip orders due to poor yields of its 3nm GAA process. This setback and chain of events forced Samsung to issue an apology during its Q3 2024 earnings […]
