Samsung has heavily optimized Exynos 990 for its Galaxy Note 20 series!
Well, it looks like Samsung is going to heavily optimized its Exynos 990 SoC for the upcoming phablet. According to the new rumors, the South Korean giant is planning to improve the Exynos 990 chipset to an extent where it has better thermals than that of Snapdragon 865+ chipset. What’s interesting is the fact that it still delivers the same level of performance.
The source further claims that the improved chipset is more like an Exynos 990+ but without the branding of course. For those who’re unaware, Samsung’s shareholders recently questioned the brand for its decision to stick with Exynos on flagship phones.

If the new improved chipset is real, then Samsung will market the Exynos 990 for Galaxy Note 20 to be better as well.
