Samsung's next-generation foldable phones, possibly the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, are rumored to be powered by the in-house Exynos 2500 chip in 2025. This comes after reported challenges integrating the chip into the Galaxy S25 series due to 3nm wafer yield issues. The Exynos 2500 boasts a 10-core CPU, including Cortex-X925, A725, and A520 cores, alongside the Xclipse 950 GPU, promising a performance boost for foldable devices. This also includes the rumored tri-fold phone and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE.
Despite past performance concerns with Exynos chips compared to Qualcomm's Snapdragon, Samsung seems confident in the Exynos 2500's capabilities. It remains to be seen how it will compete with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, especially given previous thermal and performance issues reported by Galaxy S series users with Exynos models.
