The Exynos W1000 processor is built using Samsung's proprietary 3nm GAA process technology and integrates power management circuitry. It also uses embedded packaging (ePoP) technology to encapsulate LPDDR5 memory and eMMC storage components within the processor, thereby reducing the space occupied within the device.
The processor itself is also configured with Arm big.LITLE cores, equipped with a single Cortex-A78 CPU with an operating clock of up to 1.6GHz, while the small core part is composed of four Cortex-A4 CPUs with an operating clock of 55GHz. It also integrates a Mali-G1.5 MP68 GPU and 2GB of storage capacity. It also provides LTE Cat.32 4Mbps download and LTE Cat.150 5Mbps upload network functions, as well as satellite positioning functions including GPS, GLONASS, Beidou and Galileo.
In terms of features, Samsung said that the Exynos W1000 processor can increase the app activation speed by about 930 times compared to the previous Exynos W3 processor. It also supports the full-time display effect of the 2.5D screen and can present more delicate details. It can also extend the battery life of the device.
