> Manufactured on TSMC 5 nm process

Seems weird that Samsung would use a competitor's fab to manufacture their own SoC

[ksec]

If you consider when their collaboration were announced and product shipping within ~18 months it seems the only choice would be to use TSMC instead of their own Fab, given both ARM and AMD has many experience with TSMC and the Cortex-X1 design likely have blueprint ready on TSMC.

Maybe they aren't sure if they can get their 5nm running?
