Samsung announces UFS 5.0 storage, and it may be in your next phone | Infinium-tech
Samsung has announced the development of its next-generation UFS 5.0 storage standard, claiming it offers twice the performance as the existing UFS 4.1 solution.
According to the company, the new storage technology will help reduce latency and improve response times for on-device large language models (LLMs).
The new UFS 5.0 standard is based on JEDEC’s latest embedded storage interface specification and offers sequential read speeds of up to 10.8GB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 9.8GB/s. According to Samsung, this makes UFS 5.0 twice as fast as its existing UFS 4.1 storage solution.
Samsung claims that the new storage solution is 40% more energy efficient than UFS 4.1. Additionally, the overall package is also 16.7 percent smaller.
Mass production of UFS 5.0 is scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of this year, with the new storage solution available in capacities up to 1TB.
