• Samsung is reportedly thinking about transferring the Exynos chip unit to the smartphone division.
• This could theoretically make for tighter integration with Galaxy phones, akin to Apple iPhones and their A-series silicon.
• The chips are currently designed by Samsung LSI, which also offers Exynos silicon to other phone makers.

Samsung traditionally relies on Exynos chipsets, designed by its LSI division, for some of its flagship and mid-range phones. However, a report out of Korea suggests that Samsung could take a page out of Apple’s playbook and more tightly integrate its smartphones and chips.

The Business Post reports that Samsung is reviewing a plan to transfer the Exynos chip unit from the LSI division to the mobile experience (MX) division. This is the unit responsible for Samsung Galaxy phones, tablets, watches, and more. However, the outlet suggests that there is “significant internal disagreement” regarding this proposal.
