• The in-house Exynos 2500 is expected to be used for next year’s foldables.
• This wouldn’t be the first time though as Samsung launched the Galaxy S23 series with only the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. 

The Galaxy S25 series will be Samsung’s next flagship smartphone lineup expected to launch early next year. Reports and leaks about the Galaxy S25 phones have already surfaced online. One detail that has been appearing time and again is the chipset for the Galaxy S25 series. A new report now says that all the Galaxy S25 series phones will use only the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset. 

Galaxy S25 series: No Exynos this time?

• Samsung is known to offer its flagship phones with in-house Exynos and Qualcomm chipsets depending on the market.
• A new report by Hankyung Korea Market says that Samsung has decided to use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset for the Galaxy S25 series. This chipset is slated to launch in October and will later power several flagship phones from different brands.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that Samsung is expected to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset for all the Galaxy S25 models.
