Yesterday, May 3, Samsung Electronics officially announced the development of UFS 4.0 (Universal Flash Storage) flash memory, which is intended primarily for high-performance smartphones with support for the fifth generation cellular network.\u00a0The manufacturer said that the latest memory boasts a sufficiently high bandwidth and exorbitant speeds for information exchange.\u00a0For example, Samsung claims that Samsung UFS 4.0 memory delivers up to 23.2 GB\/s of bandwidth per lane, twice the capacity of UFS 3.1 memory.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the manufacturer said that when creating a new flash memory for flagship smartphones, seventh-generation Samsung V-NAND memory was used, as well as a proprietary controller (no information was provided about it).\u00a0Thanks to this, it was possible to realize impressive information exchange speeds – sequential reading up to 4200 MB \/ s and sequential writing up to 2800 MB \/ s.\u00a0Samsung announced a 2x increase in read speed and a 1.6x increase in write speed compared to UFS 3.1 – this is certainly an impressive indicator, because even the previous generation of memory already coped well with almost any task.<\/p>\n

\"Production
Production will begin in the third quarter of this year, but the first owners of the memory have not yet been named<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

But the speed boost isn’t the only improvement Samsung engineers have been working on.\u00a0The fact is that the new memory also has a very impressive energy efficiency, which will be extremely useful for future flagships.\u00a0The manufacturer noted that energy costs in comparison with UFS 3.1 were reduced by 46% – this should significantly affect the battery life of the smartphone.\u00a0And the volume of the memory module reaches 1 TB – this is certainly not a record for the modern market, but the memory of the new format will clearly be enough to satisfy any audience needs.<\/p>\n

The production of UFS 4.0 memory should start in the third quarter of this year, when the memory appears in smartphones – they do not report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
