There has been a lot of discussion over the past few months regarding the chipset(s) that will power the next Samsung Galaxy S25 Familyscheduled for release in January. We first heard it would be an exclusive Exynos case, then two separate reports told us to expect Snapdragon everywhere.
Now another rumor, from Samsung’s home in Korea, confirms Snapdragon’s victory. The Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra will reportedly use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 globally. This is apparently done to “maximize performance” of the S25 series.
The Exynos 2500 will be used in the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7, which are set to launch in the second half of next year. This is an interesting twist, as foldables have so far relied on Snapdragon chips. Until those are launched, Samsung will have time to improve the 2500’s yield and stabilize its performance, the report notes.
