For chipsets Exynos companies Samsung criticism rather than praise has been accumulating in recent years. The reason was supposed to be performance and consumption, which was supposed to be a consequence of poor processing quality.

This would be a surprising move, as it is a direct competitor of Samsung Foundry, which also assembles competing chips. The leaker was the first to report on this surprising move @Jukanlosreve.
