Samsung might be springing for MediaTek chips to power future smartphones, a new report reveals.
According to CTimes, Taiwanese media has reported MediaTek is seeing some success in courting Samsung as a potential chip buyer.
Zhu Shan-gzu, deputy GM of MediaTek, said: “We made progress little by little in some direction.”
It’s not exactly a surprising revelation; Samsung is currently undergoing a big split from its dependence on US chip manufacturer Qualcomm.
In fact, Samsung actually used its own custom-built Exynos chips in its newly released flagship Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge smartphones.
