Samsung is gearing up to unveil its latest Exynos 2500 chipset this year, marking a significant milestone for the brand. This new application processor (AP) will be the first to be produced by Samsung Foundry using its advanced second-gen 3nm process node. Here’s why the Exynos 2500 is generating buzz in the telecommunications industry:
– The Exynos 2500 chipset is expected to outperform its rival, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, due to its efficient design and manufacturing process.
– Samsung Foundry’s use of Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistors on its 3nm silicon gives it a competitive edge over TSMC’s technology.
– GAA transistors enhance chip performance by reducing current leakage and improving electrical signals within the processor.
Excitingly, renowned leaker Roland Quandt has hinted at a major update for the upcoming Exynos 2600 chipset – Samsung will introduce its own GPU instead of using AMD’s RDNA GPU. This development signifies a strategic shift in Samsung’s approach to chipset design and could have far-reaching implications for future flagship devices.
The Exynos 2500 is expected to power the Galaxy S25 and S25+ models in most markets, while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will feature in select regions like the U.S. and China. However, with the introduction of Samsung’s proprietary GPU in the Exynos 2600, we can anticipate significant improvements in performance and efficiency across Samsung’s flagship lineup.
As Samsung continues to innovate and enhance its Exynos APs, consumers may stand to benefit from more competitive pricing and improved functionality. Stay tuned for more updates on Samsung’s cutting-edge chipset technology as we move closer to the launch of the Galaxy S26 series.
