I think exynos chips are the best out there

This has been with Galaxy Watch 7 when others offers 4nm tsmc Samsung own 3nm w1000 is better that all of them.

So it will be a fact that the upcoming E2600 will be better

    Anonymous, 18 Nov 2025I'm getting ten. This is the phone for the ages. Halle... moreGood luck with that battery life though. They say that it's gaming juice is short.

      jinxthesloth, 18 Nov 2025"The chip is reportedly ready to edge out the Snapdrag... moreYou can't rely too much on these claims. Once they are put to production and on a phone, and then placed under stress, then it would be a different story.

      This applies to all others too.

        HyperionBurn, 18 Nov 2025what if exynos actually turns out to be the best soc?A lot of people will doubt it given past experiences. The Snapdragon variants have proven themselves to be superior to the Exynos ones and some people including myself aren't happy about it.

        In fact, Samsung themselves may have known this and began to offer Snapdragon variants of the S24+ in India where the Exynos ones were sold.

        If they are to do the factioning again, then I dunno why and what for. If it is to compensate for the low yields of their 2nm chip then still it's not nice.

        Then again this might not matter to the general public who barely utilize full power anyways.

                jinxthesloth, 18 Nov 2025"The chip is reportedly ready to edge out the Snapdrag... more"Those are some big claims"

                They are more like big lies.

                  "The chip is reportedly ready to edge out the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip by 29% in the GPU department. Rumors also suggest that the Exynos 2600 will offer 14% faster CPU performance and 75% speedier GPU scores compared to the Apple A19 Pro chip found in the iPhone 17 Pro models."

                  Those are some big claims.

                      This can only be worth it if Samsung uses this extra money to finally upgrade those cameras, but knowing it's Samsung I doubt they will

                        Samsung is milking its fanboys haha, keep it up.👍

                          kdss, 18 Nov 2025Most Samsung fans deserve all this circus, as they keep rep... moreImprovements on a Samsung phone? Haven't heard of such a thing in years. I'm more curious about what they will downgrade this time around. Maybe they will get rid of that crippled pen entirely, and make the Ultra even more generic.

                            Most Samsung fans deserve all this circus, as they keep repeating that they are super happy with the small battery, the bad PWM screen, the small RAM, the crippled pen, the slow charging, the old cameras and more, and more... And all this at an unrealistically high price! Congratulations. Hopefully next year the improvements will be even smaller!

                              Invetor, 18 Nov 2025It's hard to defend Samsung these days.As a samsung user I agree. While its ok to buy a new phone once five years difference is minimal. May switch to oneplus next.

                                If they install an Exynos processor, I won't buy any Samsung device because it's a failure, junk, and overheats during use.

                                  Exynos aka "the cuckold chipset for beta male".. for women it doesn't matter.

                                    Lol, anyone shocked about the savings not being passed over to consumers?

                                      so, they're negotiating among themselves? it seems like they're trying to cook their books and make them more appealing to investors and future one...
