Back in October last year, Samsung was rumored to be working on two new chipsets – Exynos 9855 and Exynos 9925. While we have heard several rumors about the Exynos 9925 since then, leaks about the Exynos 9855 have been few and far between. Now, as per a report from Dutch tech website Galaxy Club, the much-hyped Google Tensor chip is likely a rebranded Exynos 9855.
According to GalaxyClub, the Exynos 9855 has the codename Whitechapel. In case you are out of the loop, Whitechapel is the internal codename used for Google’s Tensor chip. Moreover, it has long been rumored that Google Tensor will utilize Samsung’s 5nm process. If the latest rumor is true, it looks like Samsung has more involvement in Tensor’s development than just the fabrication.
