With the release Exynos 8890 processor, samsung has just like apple, qualcomm to the way of the research CPU architecture, one of the big core is before AMD "lynx" architecture designer team for samsung M1 architecture to develop. But in terms of GPU, samsung Exynos use or Mali - 8890 T880, 12 nuclear and violence, but samsung has been in the research of GPU architecture, its technology sources is likely to come from NVIDIA, AMD gpus have a chance, however, the two are foreign to give the GPU technology licensing.

ARM provides processor authorization and authorization of the instruction set, the former will use the official version of the architecture (some manufacturers choose configuration operation, such as the L2 cache 0, instruction set authorization allows manufacturers themselves development compatible with independent architecture of ARM instruction, higher flexibility, can obtain better performance or lower power consumption, representative of the company have apple, qualcomm, NVIDIA, since Exynos 8890 processor, samsung also to the way the research of CPU architecture, M1 architecture for the first time to performance is very good.

At present the mainstream of the ARM processor to use GPU architecture is ARM their Mali, IMGTech PowerVR, qualcomm, NVIDIA GPU architecture is their development, the next step of samsung to also to solve the GPU architecture, the same since the research route. But samsung itself is not the GPU technology research and development ability, independent GPU can choose authorization, subsequent object is NVIDIA and AMD.

From Sammobile reported that samsung are at the same time to negotiate with NVIDIA and AMD GPU technology licensing, Pascal architecture of the former performance is strong, can effect comparing also is very high, and although AMD didn't mobile GPU, but has very experienced in the field of custom GPU, SONY, Microsoft's new generation of hosts are using their Polaris architecture.

No matter which GPU manufacturers can be chosen, sources said samsung since the research of the GPU is expected in 2018, was likely in the Galaxy starting on the integrated mobile phone.

In addition, the samsung also continue to work hard, in terms of baseband Exynos 8890 used Cat12/13 LTE baseband, but manufacturers of CDMA network have been qualcomm is weakness, samsung is also developing CDMA base band now, in September 2017, is expected to have a chance for the Galaxy the integrated mobile phone, the samsung home baseband could completely off qualcomm.
