Qualcomm also design their own implementations of ARM (e.g. the current Kyro), though they do definitely ship some things with ARM designed cores.

- dchest 8y agoSamsung too (Exynos M1-M3). I think Qualcomm designs are heavily modified Arm designs, though.
- uluyol 8y agoWhile Kryo used to be fully custom, lately it's been based off of the Cortex designs. I'm not just talking about the low end SoCs, but even their high end stuff. Anandtech usually has details on this.
- gsnedders 8y agoRight, it's now a derivative design (as was Scorpion, AFAIK), though how much that matters is questionable (Apple got good perf gains over the Cortex-A8 in the Apple A4 despite it being a derivative).
