Samsung to Launch Exynos 2500 Mobile Processor this Year
The Exynos 2500 is an upcoming flagship mobile processor designed by Samsung. It is expected to be used in the Galaxy S25 series later this year. It is the successor to the Exynos 2400 found in the Galaxy S24 series. Here’s what we know about the Exynos 2500 based on leaks and rumours:
Manufacturing process: It is anticipated to be made with Samsung’s second-generation 3nm GAA fabrication technology (3nm GAP/SF3). It is claimed to provide more power efficiency and performance than the Exynos 2400’s 5nm process.
CPU: Rumours say that it will have a 10-core CPU design, with three Cortex-A730 cores clocked at 2.3 GHz to 2.5 GHz, four efficiency-focused Cortex-A520 cores, two extra Cortex-A730 cores, and one high-performance Cortex-X5 core clocked at 3.2 GHz or more.
GPU: It is anticipated to come with AMD’s RDNA-based Xclipse 950 GPU, which is claimed to perform better at ray tracing than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and is an improvement over the Xclipse 940 seen in the Exynos 2400.
Other features: Other rumoured features are – support for faster LPDDR6X memory, an enhanced AI processor, and enhanced picture signal processing capabilities.
