Samsung is all-set to launch its next-generation products -- Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Watch 7 series and the Galaxy Buds 3 -- at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event in Paris. The company, ahead of the event, has dropped a new chipset -- Exynos W1000 -- that is expected to power the next generation of Galaxy smartwatches and wearables. Based on the leaks and rumours, the Exynos W1000 is expected to power the upcoming Galaxy Watch 7 series from the company and it succeeds the W930 chip. In terms of features, the Wxynos W1000 chip is expected to offer a significant boost in terms of performance and efficiency. The company has also dropped more details about the chip via its official websites. The chipset is based on a 3nm fabrication process and has a 5-core CPU that has a Cortex A79 core with four Cortex A55 cores. According to the official website, this is expected to bring 2.7x faster app launches around 3.4x single-core performance and around 3.7x multi-core performance. The Exynos W1000 is equipped with a Mali-G68 MP2 GPU, capable of supporting displays up to 960 x 540 pixels. This makes it an ideal SoC for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra, which is expected to feature a large screen. The use of Fan-Out Panel Level Packaging (FO-PLP) enhances heat management and dissipation, despite the compact size of the W1000 in wearable devices.
