The latest 5G modem from Samsung Semiconductor is here with the newly announced Exynos Modem 5300. The Sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G-capable modem brings up to 10Gbps download and 3.87 Gbps upload speeds with support for both SA (standalone) and NSA (non-standalone) 5G networks.
Exynos 5300 is fabbed on Samsung Foundry’s 4nm EUV process, which should bring improved power efficiency and in turn longer battery life. The new modem is configurable to connect to various chipsets thanks to its built-in PCIe interface and supports the very latest 3GPP 5G NR Release 16 standard.
There’s no official confirmation on which chipset will incorporate the new Exynos 5300 modem, but some rumors suggest it may debut on Google’s Tensor 3 chipset with the Pixel 8 series.
