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