Samsung considers using enhanced 3nm chip in Galaxy Watch 7!

Samsung has reportedly begun trial production of chips on its 2nd Generation 3nm-class process technology. Chosun sources (via Tom’s Hardware) claim that Samsung aims to achieve a yield of over 60% within the next six months.

Report indicates that the South Korean tech giant is testing the performance and reliability of chips made on its SF3 node. Rather than Mobile Platform, the company is considering introducing a wearable chipset (probably for Watch 7) manufactured on its SF3 fabrication process.

Apart from this, the company is rumored to use the production node for its Exynos 2500 SoC for Galaxy S25 series smartphones. It has been believed that SF3 tech could deliver design flexibility by enabling different gate-all-around (GAA) transistor nanosheet channel widths within the same cell type.

Apple iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max use A17 chipset, which is manufactured on TSMC’s 3nm process tech. However, the latest Snapdragon and Exynos chipsets still made on 4nm process. Meanwhile, Qualcomm and Samsung both preparing to introduce their 3nm chips for smartphones later this year.
