In addition to the smartphone market, the South Korean company Samsung is also heavily involved in the processor and chip market, where the manufacturer comes up with quite innovative solutions and supplies its pieces to other companies as well. This is no different in the case of processors such as Exynos, which lag behind competitor Qualcomm, but still manage to provide relatively solid performance and long-term support. One way or another, it seems that Samsung is gradually losing support, at least in the market where the company has dominated until now. Not surprisingly, Samsung Foundry, as the division is called, has so far supplied technology to such giants as IBM, AMD or Qualcomm.

However, this is changing with the advent of new technologies and Samsung is starting to fall behind. The production is quickly catching up with companies like TSMC, which are investing billions of dollars in innovation and trying to shake Samsung as the market leader. This is also confirmed by analysts from the company TrendForce, who came up with not very flattering statistics confirming that Samsung lost roughly 1.4% of market share quarter-on-quarter and captured only 17.4% of the market. This is not a bad result, but according to experts, the share will continue to fall, and even though experts expected sales to grow to an astronomical 3.66 billion, Samsung could eventually fall below the current values. The driving force is TSMC in particular, which improved by a good few percent and earned over 11.3 billion dollars.
