I've only really seen 1 or 2 people use this name, and I don't know its real reason. * ''handwarmer'': Referred to the company's [[Exynos]] processors, used in their smartphones; they tended to heat up so much that you could use your phone as an hand warmer (sometimes hand burner!). Although nowadays these chips still have their issues compared to some counterparts, the problem that got them this name is effectively a thing of the past.
