AMD FSR Technology Reportedly Coming To Next-Gen Samsung & Qualcomm Smartphones
AMD is reportedly working with Samsung & Qualcomm to bring FSR "FidelityFX Super Resolution" technology to future smartphones.
The details come from @Tech_Reve who states that AMD, Samsung & Qualcomm have decided to jointly work on the FSR to compete against NVIDIA's DLSS. and Apple's MetalFX upscaling tech. The information suggests that the technology will be incorporated by future smartphones since AMD's laptops and desktops already utilize FSR technologies so it would make sense that Samsung and Qualcomm will work with AMD to utilize it for future smartphones.
