Report: Exynos 2600 will be used in the Galaxy S26 Ultra, mass production starts this month

16 September 2025
The Exynos 2600 will be the first chipset made on Samsung's latest 2nm GAA node. Its success is expected to bring in more external customers.

DarlingYext, 16 Sep 2025Exynos chipsets aren't competitive at all, so not really.Well they're manufactured by Samsung so it's cheaper to produce while offering practically similar performance

    Its-Spider, 16 Sep 2025Not entirely correct. Tensor G5 is completely Google's... moreSamsung modems are a bigger problem than people think though.

    Any post-2400 Exynos SoC would be heaps better in battery life if it used a qualcomm modem (which unfortunately only Apple gets to use without needing to buy the whole Snapdragon chip)

      DarlingYext, 16 Sep 2025That's one way to ruin the Ultra even more. Downgraded... moreExynos isn't horrible. They have fixed the heating issues till you don't have to care about them, since the 1380 and 2400, and now they adopt an even more advanced 3nm process than 8 Elite;

      In fact, Snapdragon is the one that is for not adopting 2nm yet

                  long live exynos!

                    Its-Spider, 16 Sep 2025Not entirely correct. Tensor G5 is completely Google's... moreYeah, Tensor is poor thanks to Google's poor design. I mean look at the G5. It uses TSMC fab, but still sucks. Meanwhile Exynos 2400 onwards are great.

                      Samsung being nosy with the S series especially the Ultra by using an Exynos, they need to rename their chipset series as Sexynos or "S"-"Exynos"....anyways

                          Exynos better than snapdragon if it's works

                            Anonymous, 16 Sep 2025Good. More competition for snapdragon Exynos chipsets aren't competitive at all, so not really.

                              That's one way to ruin the Ultra even more. Downgraded Ultra tiny 3x telephoto, no battery improvements and now Exynos chipset as well.

Tensor G5 is completely Google's own design (although they do still use Samsung's modems). But prior to that, Tensor shared the layouts used for its CPU with Exynos, but that was basically it, and used the same GPU. It then remained stuck on Exynos 2100-based layouts until G5, where it turned into a full Google design and dropped Qualcomm's Mali too.

                                    Google Tensor is a bad chip all thanks to Google.
