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 could arrive much earlier than expected

Several sources say that Samsung intends to launch its Galaxy S21 smartphone lineup earlier than expected in 2021. The company normally launches the devices in February or early March, but now the alleged leaked dates indicate that the devices may be launched in January. This would be the first time the Galaxy S series has arrived so soon.

Alleged announcement and launch dates for the Galaxy S21 lineup

The alleged announcement and launch dates for the Galaxy S21 lineup of smartphones were released on Twitter by Jon Prosser. According to Prosser’s tweet, Samsung will announce the new smartphones on January 14, 2021, and the pre-sale will apparently start on the same day. The launch will be on January 29, with the devices available in black, white, gray, silver, violet, and pink.

Prosser’s tweet also mentions that the Galaxy S21 line will consist of three models, the “normal” Galaxy S21, the Galaxy S21 Plus, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Rendered images of models like the Galaxy S21 Ultra have already appeared on the web and give an overall design hint.

It is important to note that the dates have not yet been officially released by Samsung and therefore the information mentioned by Prosser should be treated as rumors. However, Prosser has a good history of leaks as he correctly predicted iPhone 12 models and other announcements in the past.

Rumors say the Galaxy S21 Ultra will have a 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen with curved edges, while the S21 and S21+ are likely to have completely flat screens. The three devices should come equipped with Samsung Exynos 2100 or Qualcomm Snapdragon 875 chips depending on the region.

Still, on the S21 Ultra, rumors say it will come with 12GB of RAM and at least 128GB of storage capacity. Another recent rumor suggests that Samsung will follow in Apple’s footsteps and will not include a charger or headset in the Galaxy S21 smartphone box.
