In the endless race for smaller and thinner devices, every micrometer counts. That's why device manufacturers are likely excited for Micron's latest LPDDR5X memory, which is 14% shorter than the last generation. For our part, though, we're also pretty keen on the upgraded transfer rate, which is a speedy 10.7 Gbps per...

As time goes on, running artificial intelligence (AI) workloads directly on devices (as opposed to offloading to the cloud) will become more commonplace. To help push the industry towards that goal. Samsung announced it has begun mass producing what it claims is the industry's thinnest 12-nanometer class 12 gigabyte...

Samsung’s LPDDR5X memory, which can run at a blistering 10.7 Gbps, is making its way to mobile devices featuring MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 flagship chip. This was possible thanks to the close collaboration between the two companies, which meant that the verification process wrapped up after only three months.

It was right around a year and a half ago when Samsung found itself in a braggadocios mood over its 8.5 gigabits per second (Gbps) low power data rate 5X (LPDDR5X) DRAM, the fastest in the industry at the time and validated for use on Qualcomm's Snapdragon mobile platforms. Then six months ago, Micron and SK hynix...

Although Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is the star of the show when it comes to showcasing the next generation of smartphones and their performance, a processor can only do so much on its own. Fast memory is required to give such a cutting-edge chip the leg room it needs to perform, and to that end Micron and...

SK hynix announced it is now mass producing what it claims is the industry's first 24-gigabyte (GB) Low Power Double Data Rate 5X (LPDDR5X) mobile DRAM for a new round of smartphones with more memory than ever before. OnePlus is getting the party started as the first to use SK hynix's new DRAM packages, and...

When it comes to smartphones, the system-on-chip (SoC) and camera arrangement usually steal the limelight, but don't overlook the memory. Not just the capacity, but the type and speed as well. Samsung isn't overlooking this crucial component, and as such is touting the validation of its 8.5Gbps LPDDR5X DRAM for use on...

Mobile devices are in store for a major bump in bandwidth, one that leaves JEDEC's official designation in the dust. Chinese chip maker Innosilicon has demonstrated a 10,000 Mbps transfer rate on its LPDDR5X memory, which is a not-insignificant 17 percent uptick over JEDEC's LPDDR5X-8533 specification. The company...

Certain components tend to hog the limelight when a flagship phone emerges. You know the ones—the SoC (processor and GPU), camera arrangement, storage, and of course the display. What about memory? That matters too, though it's usually the capacity that gets talked about the most. Samsung wants to talk performance...

Samsung is in a boastful mood today, and for good reason—it has developed what it claims is the industry's first-ever 14-nanometer based 16-gigabit (Gb) low power data rate 5X (LPDDR5X) DRAM, which delivers a big boost in performance while consuming quite a bit less power compared to Samsung's LPDDR5. And it's not...
