        The past years has seen the decline in Snapdragon popularity as well as Intel popularity. This marks the end of American chip dominance

          Qualcomm monopoly is finally over):

            Exynos is back babyyyy! Gone are the days of hate. If Samsung is confident enough to use exynos 2600 in Ultra, it means it's definitely worth checking out

              Anonymous, 17 Sep 2025Cool. One less murican component. Now we need a new mobile ... moreNothing is American though... made in china, Indonesia, Malaysia India and Taiwan

                Fighting against Qualcomm monopoly

                  Personally, I don't mind about this. After all, it's great to see real competition in the chipset market again.

                    Even if I switch from my Samsung I will go for Oneplus and not iPhone like others think. I don't want that boring craphone.

                      I Just Read, 17 Sep 2025That's one way to ruin the Ultra even more. Downgraded... more"Every time you mention battery (which afaik) ALL phone batteries need recharging, btw it is OTHER manufacturers that need to improve their batteries to 2000 recharge cycles.."

                      Batteries aren't just about the amount of cycles. As I've already mentioned it before, 80% battery health of a 7000mAh battery is equal to a 5600mAh battery, which is still more than 100% battery health on any Samsung S series device, typically 5000mAh or even less.

                      "Fast charging an 80% battery health phone is faster!"

                      Nice try, but the likes of Realme, Oppo, Xiaomi and vivo devices simply charge faster than Samsung ones even with 100% battery health.

                        Cool. One less murican component. Now we need a new mobile OS that's joint project of Europe, South Korea, and Japan.

                          The 3x telephoto is an Ice Universe rumour! i.e not from Samsung

                          You clearly are NOT interested in facts because you have WRITTEN nonsensical fiction not found the article

                          The 2nm Exynos 2600 will be 7 months ahead of 2nm Apple Soc and ALL 2nm Android so could easily jump to #1 SoC Nanoreview as well as have Samsung S26 models scoring high in both Antutu and Geekbench imo

                          Snippet from my 05/09/2025 post 'Samsung's 2nm Exynos 2600 chipset is ready for mass production'

                          The 2nm Exynos Soc is and will be "superior" to Qualcomm's 3nm. ALL "-1 nm" process changes have so far without exception have done that.

                          Samsung with a 2nm Exynos 2600 need NOT GO FOR THE OPTIMAL INCREASE NOW but an increase that would easily place it AHEAD of what it predicts Qualcomm 2nd Oryon 3nm Soc and Mediatek.

                          Both Qualcomm’s Oryon and Dimensity will be 2nm in 2026. (Qualcomm’s 2nm may be supplied by both TSMC and Samsung.) Samsung now has 5 months to decide what the S26 split could be..but

                          The 2nm process sets the scene for an ALL EXYNOS S26 RANGE, Samsung does not have to pay Qualcomm for a 'slower' 3nm

                          I expect at least one "person?" to complain VOCIFEROUSLY and REPEATEDLY even if the 2nm Exynos 2600 benchmarks are all above Qualcomm 3nm SoC and Dimensity.

                          Not on X (so a completely untamed guess) we could see a 2nm S2600e introduced & being used in the non Ultra S26 device ...or not

                          Indeed I had to Google it Samsung previously supplied SoC to other manufacturers including Vivo..opps ***"
                          We will see if this is a return to glory however some manufacturers may be in contracts unbreakable this year and in 2026 everybody will have caught up

                          Try this No Exynos no buy!!''

                          Do not let the 2nm Exynos 2600 bother you, it's like you're considering a Samsung just all day camped out in all Samsung articles doing

                          "Exynos chipsets aren't competitive at all, so not really." 😂 Where do you get your misinformation from?

                          ****..if it proves to be a solid chip, it will encourage external customers to order from Samsung foundries (especially now that TSMC is raising prices"

                          Industry insiders expect that orders from the likes of Nintendo, Tesla and Valens will further boost Samsung’s foundry business.....

I tested telegram video calls on multiple phones and noticed the same result; excessive heat and battery drain. Doing video calls over Messenger was much better, with noticeably better thermals and battery drain. Whatever app you're using for videocall, I'd suggest trying with a different app to rule out the possibility of a poorly optimized app, cause I found this problem on both android and ios.

                                        Guess what, he misses his s22 ultra, i repeat, S22 ULTRA, AND AN EXYNOS ONE AT THAT, the worst combo in recent times, and he still misses it, that's how much of a space heater that 15 pro is.

                                        And i use iPhones at work every day, as well as having owned multiple in the past. Won't touch iOS or Apple's BS policies with a 10 foot pole Have fun being brainwashed
