AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Lite will use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC, reveals Geekbench

Samsung has an interesting launch schedule ahead for the rest of 2020. It seems that Samsung is not done with the Galaxy S20 series yet, as a new smartphone in the series called Galaxy S20 Lite has now been spotted on the Geekbench benchmark platform. However, you should not let this ‘Lite’ moniker confuse you, as the device would be a high-end segment smartphone, like the Galaxy S10 Lite.

Samsung will use the Snapdragon 865 SoC on the Galaxy S20 Lite

According to the source, the Galaxy S20 Lite was found in the Geekbench database with the model number SM-G781B. This seems true since it coincides with a previous report by the SamMobile media. The Geekbench listing reveals that the smartphone would mount the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset.

This hardware will be accompanied with 6GB of RAM. On the software side, the Galaxy S20 Lite will run the Android 10 operating system, likely under the new One UI 2.5 customization layer. This device could follow the same trail as the Galaxy S10 Lite. Thus, it would be sold in all markets with the Qualcomm processor.

Geekbench results

As per the results seen on the GeekBench platform. In the single-core performance test, it achieves a score of 737 points. Then, in the multi-core performance tests, it manages to obtain a result of 2619 points. This is in line with the scores obtained by other phones that are powered by the same Qualcomm hardware.

This would be very interesting, as the Galaxy S20 Lite could be more powerful than the current Galaxy S20-series with the Exynos 990 SoC. Qualcomm’s high-end processor has been proven repeatedly to be more efficient and powerful than Samsung’s Exynos chipsets.

In addition to the information reviewed, nothing else is known about this Samsung flagship phone yet. Considering what we saw in the previous generation, it could feature a plastic construction. However, since the device could compete with other competitive flagship phones, launching in late 2020, its build quality may be improved. According to the leaks, the Galaxy S20 Lite or S20 Fan Edition would be presented in October.
