It was almost a year ago when we first talked about the RAM LPDDR5X. We thought Samsung presented it first of all but it was MediaTek, together with Micron, to do the first tests on smartphones. Today, however, the Korean giant has decided to officially launch it by announcing the landing on smartphones with a processor Snapdragon. Clearly, only the top of the range will be able to use them. But let's go see the complete specifications.
Samsung's fastest LPDDR5X RAM so far has been unveiled: maybe on Xiaomi 13 Pro and Oppo Find X6 Pro from 2023
Samsung launched the industry's fastest LPDDR5X DRAM with data transfer rates up to 8.5 Gbps. The company's new memory chips made using the EUV process at 14 nm have already been validated for use with Qualcomm's Snapdragon Mobile platforms. We expect to see these new DRAM chips in the future high-end smartphones and ultra-thin laptops.
Earlier this year, Samsung achieved maximum data transfer speeds of up to 7.4 Gbps and passed that milestone in a matter of months. Thanks to a deeper collaboration with brands such as Qualcomm, the South Korean company was able to accelerate the availability of LPDDR5X DRAM by over a year. These chips could be used with the processor Snapdragon 8 Gen2 within next year's high-end smartphones and tablets. Right poco ago we talked about Xiaomi 13 Pro, Oppo Find X6 Pro e vivo X90 Pro +.
In addition to high-end smartphones, LPDDR5X DRAM is also used in laptop, high-performance computing devices, servers and automobiles. Samsung has seen strong growth in LPDDR5X DRAM chips in the automotive industry as more autonomous cars are acquiring and processing a lot of data from sensors. LPDDR RAM can help brands a reduce energy consumption of the products on which it is installed.
