Samsung unveils a special type of DRAM perfect for mobile AI!

Samsung is one of the largest companies on the face of our planet with its hands in various sectors. As such they have one of the largest market shares among DRAM manufacturers. And recently Samsung Semiconductor unveiled a special type of DRAM — LLW IO! Let’s delve further into it in this article.

Samsung LLW IO Overview

Samsung has been going on about developing its latest DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) for quite some time now with the initial announcement coming back in January 2023. The company then briefly touched upon it at Memory Tech Day in October 2023. Now they have finally given us a glimpse of the Low Latency Wide IO a.k.a LLW IO via X post.

This special type of DRAM apparently will increase bandwidth and latency limits. From what’s shown in the video, this DRAM will be housed within the SoC, hence, the low latency levels. Furthermore, the LLW IO is significantly more efficient in real-time data processing than LPDDR as per the company.

However, it seems that this “special type of DRAM” will not replace the traditional DRAM but will work in conjunction instead. Additionally, Samsung says the LLW IO is ideal for mobile AI and gaming applications. As such, this DRAM will be used in mobile devices such as smartphones, laptops, XR headsets, and gaming consoles.

Conclusion

There has not been any official announcement when the LLW IO will be available on our devices. Nonetheless, sources are speculating that this DRAM may appear in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 series. However, we will have to wait and see if that will be the case!

This addition offers users an alternative browsing experience beyond the usual suspects like Chrome and Edge. Now available on the Microsoft Store, Samsung Internet brings familiarity from Samsung Galaxy tablets and Android phones to Windows users.

Redmi sold one billion smartphones in ten years

0

Redmi celebrated its 10th year anniversary on the 29th of November, 2023 in Beijing China. Not only did it unveil the Redmi K70 Series, Redmi Book (2024), Redmi Buds 5 Pro, and Redmi Watch 4. But just some days prior, the Xiaomi subbrand also made a special announcement about its sales in over ten years. Redmi has reached a whopping one billion smartphone sales in a decade. More about this in our article!

Redmi’s One Billion Sales in Ten Years:

Redmi has achieved this groundbreaking achievement by shipping one billion smartphones in a decade. There are a number of factors behind this success which we are discussing today.

Value for Money Products

This Chinese brand has always been known for providing the best value-for-money products at super competitive pricing. It was founded in 2013 under Xiaomi and gained an independent status in January 2019. Its global inception was met with wild success – the Redmi 1S sold like hotcakes in Indian and Asian markets. Its popularity further skyrocketed with the Redmi Note Series, which has been the highest-selling Redmi phone, even up to this day.

Redmi 1S

Online Marketing

If you remember, Redmi phones used to be completely sold online. In our neighboring country India, people used to go bonkers over the flash sales with stocks sold out within some seconds! This strategy from Redmi garnered more attention and it really didn’t have to spend much on marketing. Slowly, the brand moved towards the offline market, which also helped to spread its market shares accordingly.

Fan Centric Approach

Another articulating factor behind Redmi’s success is its fan-centric approach. Actually, the idea came from its parent company Xiaomi, sprouting the Mi Fans moniker. The company holds meet-ups and launch events amongst fans in various countries. Not only this the Xiaomi community also organizes multiple contests time and again. So, this approach has worked greatly for both Redmi and Xiaomi.

Brand Image

With the growing user base, Redmi has managed to gain the trust of its customers through pricing and specs. It is spotted as one of the top names in the budget and midrange segment. So, the massive popularity and user base have contributed to a good brand image in that segment. Of course, the brand is not free from criticisms of some of its products and MIUI skin to be general. But things might finally change with the newly announced HyperOS.

Redmi in Nepal

Redmi in Nepal operates under Xiaomi Nepal, which entered Nepal in March 2016. Currently, there are two official distributors of Xiaomi/Redmi phones in Nepal: Vatsal Impex Pvt. Ltd. and Teledirect Pvt. Ltd. Vatsal Impex serves customers inside the Kathmandu Valley, whereas Teledirect looks after the sales and provides services to customers outside the valley. The Note Series along with the Redmi Number Series have been the primary reason for Xiaomi bagging the top market share in the Nepalese smartphone market.
