Whereas Qualcomm had six chips designed into many Galaxy S5 models, a Chipworks teardown of Samsung's Galaxy S6 didn't turn up a single Qualcomm part. In addition to eschewing the Snapdragon 810 app processor in favor of its 8-core Exynos 7420, Samsung replaced Qualcomm baseband modem, power management, RF transceiver, and envelope tracking chips with home-grown parts.
