A report by the Korean publication The Bell has identified that Samsung Electronics has witnessed success with its Exynos 2600 SoC yield. The Exynos 2600 SoC’s present success stems from its 30 p.c yield, outperforming the Exynos 2500 SoC, which was by no means launched. While reaching a 30 p.c success charge is a giant deal, we did see a similar report final yr with the Exynos 2500 SoC, however as issues panned out, Samsung clearly wasn’t able to roll them out with the Galaxy S25 sequence this yr, choosing Qualcomm’s chipset as a substitute.
The supply factors out that the chip division is now planning for mass manufacturing within the fourth quarter of this yr. However, that is supplied Samsung can obtain a 60 p.c success charge (or yield) with for its 2nm chipset. A 60 p.c yield is normally the requirement earlier than a chipset can enter mass manufacturing.
The report additionally goes on to make clear that Samsung Electonics’ failure to ship a greater yield was the rationale why Samsung opted for Qualcomm’s chipset in its newest Galaxy S25 sequence this yr. Samsung had converted to utilizing its personal Exynos 2400 SoC with its Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus fashions final yr.
As per the newest experiences, Samsung’s Galaxy S26 sequence is about to debut across the similar time its Galaxy S25 sequence was introduced this yr. Among the numerous upgrades, Samsung is claimed to lastly swap to newer silicon carbon batteries, higher cameras and even an under-display digicam for its Galaxy S26 Ultra mannequin.
