A new report claims the Samsung Galaxy S6 will feature more of the company's Exynos chipsets rather than the latest Snapdragon chips from Qualcomm.
According to a report by GSM Arena, tech website DigiTimes reports that the Korean tech giant may be afraid of heating issues with the Galaxy S6 if it would use a chipset from a third-party supplier.
As a result, rumors claim that the Galaxy S6 should arrive in two versions, wherein 90 percent of the new handsets would come with Samsung's very own Exynos chipsets, while 10 percent will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 810.
However, the report points out that Samsung may eventually increase the number of its Galaxy S6 phones powered by Snapdragon 810 once it fixes the overheating issues.
While there are no official dates yet for the unveiling of the next-generation Samsung flagship, rumors from last week's Consumer Electronics Show claim that the upcoming flagship should arrive at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in late February.
For the past weeks, some rumors surrounding the Galaxy S6 claim a 'regular' and 'edge' version, which are inspired by last year's Galaxy Note 4 and Note Edge designs.
Meanwhile, rumored specs include a 5.2-inch display with QHD resolution, a metal chassis just like the Galaxy Alpha series, 3GB of RAM and the same features found in last year's Galaxy S5 - the heartrate monitor, fingerprint sensor, etc.
Samsung has had a troublesome year last year as it lost some key markets, particularly in Asia. Local favorite and rising tech manufacturer Xiaomi has taken over Samsung's control over China, and is now on the verge of officially releasing handsets to other neighboring countries in Asia.
Earlier this week, the Android phone maker announced its latest flagship, the Mi Note Pro which is already a tough match for Samsung's Note 4. The Chinese brand has also unveiled a slightly 'less' powerful Mi Note, which 'only' boasts a 2GB of RAM.
The Korean manufacturer better step up its game to avoid further losing grip of its target markets.
