For many years, Samsung has produced phones offering one of the best Android experiences. It is also currently the only brand in the Android world that manufactures its chips. And while that sounds very good in theory, things have not been going very well for the tech giant in this aspect for quite some while.
Looking at the trend of the past few years, Samsung’s Exynos chips fall behind the competition by considerable margins. This is one of the reasons Samsung completely ditched Exynos processors for the Galaxy S23 series.
However, that did not last long since Samsung revived its chips on the Galaxy S24 series with the Exynos 2400. And Samsung plans to keep their Exynos chips for the future as well.
Exynos Could Entirely power the Galaxy S25 Series
In recent news, a rumor has been floating around that Samsung plans to use different brands’ SoCs (System on Chips), at least for 2025. If this rumor turns out to be accurate, we will see the Galaxy S25 series being entirely powered by Samsung’s own Exynos chip.
In other words, we will not see any of the Galaxy S25 series models with a Snapdragon chip. One thing to note is that the leaker who shared this information on X (formerly Twitter) emphasizes that it is only a rumor. For your information, Samsung and Qualcomm agreed last year. This agreement confirmed using the latter’s chips in the former’s high-end phones. This isn’t very clear, but it will likely be evident as we near the device launch. For now, all we can do is wait.
The rumor also mentions that the Galaxy Z series foldables will feature only Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips. This includes the book-style foldable Galaxy Z Fold 7 and the clamshell-type foldable Galaxy Z Flip 7. Other Samsung lineups, like the Galaxy A series, will come with a mix of midrange MediaTek and Exynos processors.
As for the particulars of Samsung’s chips, things are not clear. Another leaker on X states that the Exynos 2400 will be the last Exynos chip. Its successors will likely come with a different branding. We could see one of them in the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and the Galaxy S25 Ultra, all of which would have been powered by the Exynos 2500 otherwise if the rumors were true.
