BTN News: Samsung has shown its new Exynos W1000 chip. This may help the next Galaxy Watch last twice as long as the Apple Watch Series 9.
Exynos W1000 Chipset Brings Better Performance for Galaxy Watches
The Exynos W1000 chip will be in the next Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra. It is much better than the old Exynos W930 chip. It is made with a new 3-nanometer process. It has a strong five-core processor. This makes apps start 2.7 times faster. It also makes single-core performance 3.4 times faster.
Better Graphics and More Storage for a Smooth Experience
The Exynos W1000 has a Mali-G68 MP2 GPU from ARM Holdings. It supports screens with up to 640 x 640 pixels. It also has 32GB of built-in storage.
New Technologies Make the Chip More Efficient
Samsung used new technologies like Fan-Out Panel Level Packaging (FOPLP) and Integrated Package in Package (iPIP) to make the chip work better and save power. The Exynos W1000 also has a 2.5D Always on Display (AoD) for better watch faces. It has Bluetooth LE for audio and LPDDR5 RAM for saving power. It can connect to 4G LTE, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi b/g/n, GPS, and NFC.
Longer Battery Life for More Use Time
The Exynos W1000 may make the new Galaxy Watches last 2-3 days on one charge. This is more than twice the battery life of the Apple Watch Series 9, which lasts about 18 hours on one charge.
Samsung Competes Strongly with Apple in the Smartwatch Market
Samsung’s new chip comes after Apple launched the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 in 2023. These watches have better speed and performance. Apple is also said to be working on a special tenth-anniversary watch, the Apple Watch X or Series 10. This watch may have a bigger screen and a thinner case.
Samsung’s new Exynos W1000 chip is a big step to compete with Apple’s new watches.
