But only in one region most likely, and you probably know which one.

Alex, 12 May 2025I skipped every Exynos phone. And I'll do it again if... moreMaybe I'll try out Nothing Phone 3. Maybe it's time.

    I skipped every Exynos phone.
    And I'll do it again if Samsung does it to S26 Ultra.

        I am planning to buy the Galaxy S26, but since they went back to using Exynos, I would go for the iPhone 17 instead.

          If we think of it, having a different chipsset is not the issue here! Having a lower performance chipset that is also made in house (should be an advantage also for the buyers since them buying your device will help you develop a better product/chipset in the future) and being more expensive in the same time is the problem! So Samsung is trying to mock us europeans up. ...you back Samsung! My money goes with the one that is some how fair to me!

            If Exynos 2600 is less powerful and less efficient than Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, that should be reflected in the price. Also, it should at least be able to beat Snapdragon 8 Elite (Gen 1) in performance AND efficiency so that S26 is not worse than S25.

            Honestly though, giving the FE Exynos and the standard models Snapdragon like it is now seems like the best solution to me.

                I hope this time they will improve the battery life and performance plus thermals on safe side.

                  Ew... no thanks, you can keep it.

                    SadSoul, 06 May 2025I voted with my wallet everytime Lagxynos was the SoC. Wil... moreFunny thing is even 2019 Exynos from S10 is on par with many midrange chipset released this year or last year 🤣 Calling it laggy it's overstatement. Because Exynos chipset are flagship chipsets, meaning their performance are way ahead of any midrange chipset which supposed to come out in the near future from that day of Exynos chipset release 😜

                      JOEL, 07 May 2025they just have to use dimensity, its better.Considering Samsung is using Dimensity for its Tab S series now, looks like they do try to diversify their chip choices.

                            The Android Freak, 07 May 2025EU should keep Samsung devices on shelfs itself. Put yourse... moreIQOO 13 is a better buy than the F7 Ultra but I agree, the Oneplus 13 is an excellent, EXCELLNT device and should be bought by most people.

                              The Android Freak, 07 May 2025People will eventually notice and get away from Samsung in ... morenever gonna happen. Once a market leader establishes itself and has government/supplier backing it becomes unstoppable. Google and Samsung are partnering to try to put others out of the top tier phone market. Their marketing always works charms.

                              Remember, Youtube and Google.com are owned by Google/Alphabet, so if they want they can manipulate viewers into going for their phones by showing only good reviews of their phones and bad reviews of others. Lots of propaganda. Nothing much to do.

                                then Samsung might not get a piece from ME. I rather wait for S27 then.

                                  This is beyond ridiculous. I live in Europe and I guarantee you, I'd rather buy a chinese phone than something that has exynos cpu or isocell sensors.

                                    TEchy Phonenerd, 06 May 2025I really wish the exynos chipset is gooodIt takes years of development which Samsung isn't putting. Not in chipset, not in camera department as well. They just want people's money and nothing else. Medicare upgrade YoY for high pricing. Samsung will fall like noone has even imagined.

                                        soba, 06 May 2025That's not how retail works. Consumers spend more mon... moreSamsung should go literally out of phone business.
