Samsung ditched Maxim audio chips in Exynos S10!

[anon(10181084)]

So this morning I found teardown info and images for the Exynos S10. One of the things that immediately caught my eye was that there wasn't an audio amplifier from Maxim. I wouldn't be surprised if the sound is worse on the S10, although it is yet to be seen by reviewers when Cirrus Logic (Samsung switched to them this year) has cooked up some tech that is comparable to Maxim's famous DSM technology. There have recently been some issues at Maxim Integrated, and I suspect Samsung lost trust in them and switched to known-good Cirrus Logic chips.
