I was just thinking that Samsung's recent chip manufacturing capabilities appear to look somewhat disappointing on paper. Didn't expect a confirmation right away.

I used to buy their products, because back in the early 2010s they we're successful as an alternative to Apple - in terms for bang/buck ratio at least.

I won't be switching anytime soon because my Galaxy S8 is holding up decently, but news such as these here will make me think twice about choosing them again.

I recall Samsung struggling with high end fabrication since the iPhone 6 "chipgate" issue where the CPU (designed by Apple) manufactured by TSMC ran cooler than those by Samsung. It seems this happened again last year with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 too: https://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2021/05/tsmc-ba...
