Sad, because competition is what benefits us, end users and what brings inovation.
Intel/AMD is the best example.

    Stop making your chips relatable. You'll never be close to Snapdragon chips nor Apple chips! You're just being obsessed and delusional that you're on par with apple while you are not!

      What stopping them from asking TSMC to make their Exynos, perhaps they could include some technology transfers in the agreement to help their own foundry in the future. It might bruise their ego a little bit, but it's better than leaving Snapdragon get comfortable at the top of the helm. They're charging way to much now 'cause they know brands wouldn't have much choice.

      And soon, Android flagships are going to be even more expensive than the Iphones or stay stagnant in other hardware department to compensate the rising cost of SoC.

          I prefer snapdragon any day, but qualcomm is getting cocky with the prices.

          Exynos 2400 wasn't terrible performance wise, efficency however is a different story (it was meh).

            I feel like the best outcome would be Snapdragons across the S25 lineup, and Exynos 2500e for the S25 FE. That way Samsung gets to continue improving their chips so that there is competition against Qualcomm. But buyers are not forced to accept a lower quality chip depending on the place of purchase. S25, S25, S25ULTRA: Snapdragon. S25FE, maybe Tab S10 Fe? : Exynos.

              Anonymous, 12 hours agoI hope Samsung uses Exynos. Qualcomm is extremely greedy ... moreThis is one of the many reason why Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo & Honor beat Samsung
              Because the Chinese use the better chip, while samsung stuck at their home chip

                Leave the production batches to sell to Google rebranded as Tensors...

                  Yesss. I hope this is true. They can't match Snapdragon. Put your crappy Exynos in your low to mid range phones only

                    I'm seeing this as an absolute win

                        Qualcomm is extremely greedy to charge 240$ per chip.

                          A better strategy for samsung is to stop using Exynos at their top chip.
                          Put exynos in mid-range. And only put it at their top model once it's really good. Otherwise, it will jeopardize their brand name.

                              They should also use dimensity chips instead

                                Oh no they are struggling to make enough Exynos chipsets. Maybe that's a good thing.

                                  If they can keep the same prices with that, it's a W
