Industry’s First 5nm EUV Processor—Powering the Next Generation of Wearables
Samsung Electronics is pleased to announce the launch of the industry’s first 5nm EUV processor made expressly to power the next generation of wearables—the Exynos W920. With a built-in 4G Cat.4 LTE modem and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) L1, the Exynos W920 brings seamless connectivity to your wrist. Is it efficient? Well, it packs two Arm® Cortex®-A55 cores and an Arm Mali™-G68 GPU that boasts 20% more efficient processing and 10x better graphics performance than its predecessor. And because the Exynos squeezes all of these goodies into the smallest package currently available for wearables[1] (which also includes LPDDR4 memory and embedded multimedia card), it offers smartwatch designers the option to create a sleeker design, or to house a more robust battery.

So what does this mean for you, the wearable wearer? On-the-go LTE connectivity : Outdoor enthusiasts, rejoice! Seamless tracking of location, speed, distance, and altitude are part and parcel of the Exynos W920. Better 3D graphics : The high-performing Arm Mali™-G68 GPU powers faster app lunches, and smoother, more natural interactions with your smartwatch’s visuals. Always-on, battery-saving display : Instead of powering up the main CPU under Always On Display (AOD) mode, the W920 activates a dedicated low-power display processor, the Cortex-M55, reducing display power consumption, for longer battery. And of course, Exynos W920 supports Wear OS on the new Galaxy Watch4 and Watch4 Classic.
[1] The method used is called System-in-Package-embedded Package on Package (SiP-ePoP) configuration, which we assure you is a real term that was clearly thought up by engineers.
