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.

Samsung Galaxy S21 tipped to launch in January next year

Samsung is already planning full speed ahead for the launch of the Galaxy S21 series. And a new media report suggests the phone’s launch could happen a month before its usual timeline. As you might know, Samsung hosts a big event prior to the Mobile World Congress MWC every year, where the new S series is launched. But because of the pandemic, the brand had to do a virtual event in 2020. With things unlikely to change in the next few months, we expect a similar arrangement yet again.

But the Sammobile report indicates that Samsung has already started mass production of the Galaxy S21 series in South Korea. This has led many to believe that the next flagship phone from the brand could debut as early as January 2021. The possible reason behind the early launch is suggested to be the entry of the affordable Galaxy Fold series. So, in order to make space for its other product, Samsung is willing to prepone its calendar. And give us the first big product of 2021 in the first month itself. The S21 series will have multiple variants, which includes Plus and Ultra models.

Samsung could ditch under-display camera for Galaxy S21

Samsung Galaxy S21 is most likely going to come without under-display camera. According to news report this week, the company is not satisfied with the efficiency of the technology. And during its test, the results were far from convincing. All this has made sure Samsung is not going to use the under-display camera for its upcoming Galaxy phone next year.

Samsung uses its in-house Display division to make screens for its smartphone. They used the hole in active area (HIAA) method to drill the camera into the display. This worked quite nicely on the Galaxy S20 series, which came with punch hole front camera. And same happened with the Galaxy Note 20 as well. But while integrating the camera under the display, the company did not see encouraging results to go ahead with it in mass production.
