Samsung has begun producing its new 512GB memory chip based on the embedded Universal Flash Storage 3.0 specification, with up to 2,100Mbps of read rate and sequential write speed as fast as 410Mbps.
Having released 512GB embedded Universal Flash Storage chips a bit over a year ago, Samsung has delivered an industry first 1TB part designed for use in "next-generation mobile applications".
Aimed at "next-generation premium smartphones" Samsung announced that its new 512GB embedded UFS storage chip has gone into production, which could potentially appear inside the anticipated Galaxy S9.
Despite a distinct lack of device support, Samsung has become the first flash memory manufacturer to unveil removable Universal Flash Storage cards offering fast speeds and capacities up to 256GB.
