JAKARTA - After years of competing in the mobile market. Xiaomi and Samsung are rumored to have collaborated to produce the latest custom silicon or chipsets.

Cited from Gizmochina, there have been at least five meetings between companies in the development of SoC based on ARM Cortex X2 cores. It is estimated that this new architecture will be released at the end of the year.

Similar to the partnership between the Chinese and South Korean companies, Qualcomm will also adopt a new v9 architecture for its upcoming flagship SoC. It's even possible that Samsung will also use the new core for its Exynos-based processors.

On the other hand, Xiaomi will strive to continue using the ARM Mali GPU in comparison to the combined Samsung and AMD offerings, due to the limited number of units that may be available.

Recently, many companies have switched to specialized chipsets in the mobile market based on Android. Just as Apple has shifted the Mac series to using custom silicon, even Google is reportedly working on an exclusive 'Whitechapel' SoC for the upcoming Pixel 6 series, which is expected to launch in the fall of this year.

However, this report has not been confirmed between the two parties. Even so, there have previously been reports of Xiaomi showing interest in developing a special silicon-based chip, and this is likely one of its attempts to be as exclusive as other mobile manufacturers.
