Geminis

Samsung just present his smartwatches Galaxy Watch8 and Watch8 Classic. A priori we might think that these watches simply embody the annual update of their hardware to which it and many other companies have accustomed us. However, The Galaxy Watch8 propose a differential benefit that, therefore, it is worth not overlooking: they are the first smart watches in the market that They incorporate Wear OS 6 with Gemini. As we anticipate from the head of this article, in our opinion the arrival to these smartwatches of the artificial intelligence (AI) of Google is good news. And it is because presumably will have a deep and positive impact on our experience. The integration of this technology into a device that users usually always carry on, and that, in addition, resides in a very accessible area, greatly facilitates its use. In fact, what Samsung proposes to us on paper paints very well. And if we turn to Gemini we can interact with these smart watches using natural voice commands to, thus control apps such as Samsung Health, the calendar or the clock. We can also use Gemini to find a nearby location, such as a pharmacy, or to send text messages. Interestingly, the SOC proposed by these watches is the same that incorporates the Galaxy Watch Ultraso we suspect that it will be possible to update the operating system of this last device to Wear OS 6 with Gemini. Our experience with Gemini is in the hands of the SOC exynos w1000 This chip is very special. And it is because it is one of the first integrated circuits manufactured by Samsung using Gaa photolithography (Gate-alall-around) 3 nm. The purpose of this innovation is to outdo Finget technology in a crucial parameter: watt performance. The semiconductors with Finfet transistors began to be manufactured on a large scale in the early last decade, so it is a mature technology that TSMC, Intel and Samsung know very well and will not easily abandon. Even so, in the future GAA transistors will reign. The Exynos W1000 SOC will be largely responsible for the experience that Gemini will offer us at the Galaxy Watch8 and Watch8 Classic Anyway, there is no doubt: the soc Exynos W1000 It will be largely responsible for the experience that Gemini will offer us in the smartwatches Galaxy Watch8 and Watch8 Classic. And probably Also at the Galaxy Watch Ultraas I mentioned a few lines above. We can anticipate that we will soon put these smart watches to the test and confirm if Gemini really offers us an experience at the height of what we can expect. The latency in this scenario of use is crucial. In any case, on paper we can be reasonably optimistic. And it is that the specifications of this SOC, beyond the lithography that Samsung has used to manufacture it, are quite ambitious. In fact, it incorporates a Cortex-A78 nucleus to 1.6 GHz and four Cortex-A55 nuclei to 1.5 GHz that work side by side with a main memory map of 2 GB of type LPDDR5. The graphic logic, which also has a crucial role in the field that interests us, is a Mali-G68 MP2. Paint well. Samsung says that this soc is Up to 3.7 times more powerful That the previous one, the chip Exynos W930in a multihilo use scenario. We will see it. We hope to tell you much more about the experience proposed by Gemini in these smartwatches coming soon. Image | Xataka In Xataka | Intel is already manufacturing chips on the Intel 3 node.
