Samsung announced new mid-range chipset Exynos 9609 to power the mid-range devices. Exynos 9609 is basically a lower version of Exynos 9610 which we have seen in multiple Samsung devices. Recently launched Moto One Vision is powered by Exynos 9609 SoC.
An Octa-Core Exynos 9609 Chipset is made on 10nm fabrication process in which 4 cores are clocked at 1.6GHz while other four cores are clocked at 2.2GHz. Samsung is using the same GPU from Exynos 9610 Mali-G72 MP3.
