If the rumors floating around end up being true, then 2019 is going to be jam-packed with innovative new technologies in the smartphone space. We've already caught a glimpse of the future with pop-up cameras in the Honor Magic 2 and Xiaomi Mi Mix 3, but we're expecting next year to bring us display holes, under-display cameras, and other crazy tech. The Samsung Galaxy S10, Samsung's next flagship phone which will probably come in 4 different presentations, will turn heads when it's announced early next year. The Galaxy S10 will excite the tech world not just because of the rumored 5G support and under-screen camera, but also because of its improved brains behind the operation. The Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to feature the next-generation Exynos 9820 chipset, which should prove to be a substantial improvement over the current Exynos 9810 used in the Galaxy S9 and the Galaxy Note 9. Now, thanks to information provided by Korean publication Etnews, we're learning more about the upcoming Samsung chipset ahead of its unveiling.
