Samsung is reportedly gearing up to develop its own 2nm smartphone chipset to rival Apple’s A19 processor. The tech industry is moving fast, with companies like TSMC and Samsung Foundry already preparing to mass-produce top-tier smartphone processors at the 2nm node by the second half of next year.
Samsung Foundry has dubbed their first-gen 2nm process node as SF2, which will be utilized to manufacture the upcoming Exynos 2600 application processor. This chip is expected to power the Samsung Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+ models worldwide, except for in the U.S., China, and Canada where they will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC will also be present in the Galaxy S26 Ultra across all markets.
Looking ahead, it is anticipated that Apple’s iPhone 17 series will be the first smartphones to incorporate a 2nm chipset when they are launched in September 2025. This groundbreaking technology may power not only the iPhone 17 but also the iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and iPhone 17 Ultra. As for Samsung, consumers can expect their own Exynos 2600 SoC based on the 2nm process node to debut with the Galaxy S26 series in early 2026.
Exciting advancements are on the horizon in the world of mobile technology as manufacturers race to deliver cutting-edge performance with these new generation chipsets. Stay tuned for more updates on Phones Canada for all your telecommunications news!
