Our Solution For Wearable

Develop an attractive wearable device to deliver true value to a lifestyle. If a wearable device is to be widely accepted, it must look natural and last long without charging. These are the key requirements even leading manufacturers find challenging. Samsung has the solution to surpass market expectations.

Gain the unique advantage of unlimited design potential. Samsung provides design flexibility with components that are smaller in footprint, leaving more space for other specifications to enhance the user experience.

Samsung provides a breakthrough single-package solution for the Application Processor and memories that use up to 60% less space than when individually used in a wearable device. Samsung Mobile DDI empowers innovative designs for wearable devices through our flexible display technology, 2-metal Chip On Film (COF), with additional benefits such as higher resolution and slimmer bezel.

Become the device of choice for 24/7 connectivity. Samsung products are designed to deliver significant power savings for the long-lasting operation of all types of wearables.

Our ePoP, integrating three power-efficient components (AP, eMMC and mobile DRAM), enables higher performance while consuming low battery power.

Samsung Mobile DDI reduces power consumption, yet maintains supreme image quality by supporting various image compression algorithms of major APs.

Samsung offers several NFC solutions with highdensity and power-efficient NAND flash chips, storing various user details with low power.

Deliver innovative products before the competition. Thanks to the simplicity and convenience of Samsung’s latest technology, manufacturers can achieve business sustainability while rapidly launching state-of-the-art wearable devices. Samsung ePoP is a packaged solution that can be customized to drastically reduce time to market. Exynos 3 Dual, a high performance solution in a small package, is another approach to rapidly enter the wearable market. Samsung’s flexible display technology can be easily customized for the panel assembly process of various wearable devices.
