According to South Korean media Sammobile, Twitter source @Tech_Reve broke the news that the future Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor will be jointly produced by Samsung and TSMC. As usual, this flagship SoC is expected to be officially released in late 2024.

The standard version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will be produced by TSMC's N3E 3nm process, while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 for Galaxy is dedicated to Samsung's Galaxy S25 series phones and is produced by Samsung's own 3GAP 3nm process, sources said.
In response to some users' concerns about the poor energy efficiency of Samsung's process, foreign media said that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip manufactured by Samsung is expected to be used only for its own mobile phones and will not be open to other mobile phone brands. Previously, Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 to Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 were exclusively manufactured by Samsung. Due to TSMC's technology lag, mobile phones have obvious heating problems. Therefore, Qualcomm has resumed production by TSMC since the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip.
Sammobile said that if the above revelations are true, it means that Samsung may be able to match TSMC in terms of energy consumption of the 3nm process, but it still needs to be viewed with caution. After all, there is still a long time before the official release of the chip.
According to a report by South Korean media Pulse by Maeil Business News Korea in early May, Samsung's internal materials show that the computing speed of the company's second generation 3nm process chip will be 22% faster than the current 4nm process, the efficiency will be increased by 34%, and the chip size will also be reduced. 21%. TSMC also recently announced that the performance of the second generation 3nm process is 18% higher than its own N5 5nm process, and the efficiency is 32% higher.
