Just a week after the debut of the Galaxy S24 series featuring the Exynos 2400 SoC, leaked details about the Exynos 2500 chipset set to power next year’s Galaxy S25 have surfaced.
READ:
Rumors suggest that the Exynos 2500 will maintain the 10-core configuration seen in its predecessor but with a twist, it will incorporate ARM’s upcoming CPU cores.
Manufactured using Samsung’s second-gen 3nm process (3nm GAP/SF3), it promises superior area and efficiency.
The heart of the Exynos 2500 is rumored to include a powerful Cortex-X5 core clocked at 3.2 GHz or higher, accompanied by three Cortex-A730 cores ranging from 2.3 GHz to 2.5 GHz, two additional Cortex-A730 cores, and four efficiency-focused Cortex-A520 cores. The speculated performance of the Cortex-X5 core even surpasses Apple’s latest custom CPU core, hinting at an intriguing chip in terms of raw power.
In the realm of graphics, the Exynos 2500 is anticipated to feature AMD’s RDNA-based Xclipse 950, a notable upgrade from the Xclipse 940 in the Exynos 2400. The latter has already outperformed the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in raytracing, and with these enhancements, the Exynos 2500 might bring Samsung back on par with or even surpass the Snapdragon – a significant development after years of competition.
As we eagerly await more leaks and unveilings, will the Exynos 2500 redefine the game for Samsung and outshine its rivals in both power and efficiency?
