On April 21st, reports from domestic media suggest that Samsung is taking a significant leap forward with its next-generation mobile processor, the Exynos 2500, surpassing Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen4.
According to insiders, the Exynos 2500 excels in both energy efficiency and raw performance compared to its competitor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen4.
Samsung's Exynos 2400, released earlier this year, already managed to keep pace with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen3.
For the Exynos 2500, Samsung is expected to utilize a 3nm process, while the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 is anticipated to continue using a 4nm process technology, giving Samsung's new chip a certain advantage.
It's understood that the Exynos 2500 will come in two flagship chip variants. One variant, the Exynos 2500-A, is designed for smartphones and features an eight-core CPU.
The other variant, the Exynos 2500-B, is tailored for tablets and Galaxy Book laptops, boasting a more powerful 10-core CPU.
Additionally, there are rumors suggesting that Samsung might abandon its in-house NPU in favor of Google's Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) in its new chips, although this information has yet to be officially confirmed.
