As the world ’ s leading phone brand , with more than 20 % of global market share , Samsung nevertheless trails behind the competition when it comes to chip making . The company ’ s range of Exynos processors are powerful , but the Korean conglomerate has yet to figure out a way to make them affordably , while also competing with its main competitor Qualcomm . Samsung devices powered by its current gen 990 chip have been plagued by overheating , poor autofocus and other issues . However , Samsung ’ s next generation of chip , the Exynos 1000 ( which is rumoured to beat the Snapdragon 865 in several benchmarking tests ) has been rebuilt from the ground up to address the issues with the 990 , and will replace Qualcomm ’ s tech in future generations .
