• A Google website has seemingly suggested that a future Samsung phone could get a flagship MediaTek chipset.
• There are a few reasons to be skeptical of this news, but there are also a few reasons to expect a Dimensity chip in the Galaxy S25 series.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S25 series in early 2025, and questions have been raised over the choice of chipset. However, Google’s DeepMind website may have just hinted at MediaTek flagship power for a future Samsung phone. Or did it?

AlphaChip technology is part of Google’s DeepMind AI division, and this is an AI method to design processors. A blog post mentioning some AlphaChip successes (via Gizmochina) seems to hint at a flagship MediaTek chip coming to Samsung phones. The post specifically notes that AlphaChip was used “to accelerate development of their (MediaTek’s) most advanced chips — like the Dimensity Flagship 5G used in Samsung mobile phones — while improving power, performance and chip area.”
