Crazy rumor points to Galaxy S24 series regaining Exynos power

The Galaxy S23 collection marks the primary time since 2015 {that a} Galaxy S household is powered by one processor, as all three Galaxy S23 fashions are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. We count on this to be the case for 2024’s Galaxy S24 collection as effectively, however a Korean information outlet is suggesting in any other case.

The Maeil enterprise information publication experiences that Samsung is creating the Exynos 2400 processor, with a watch to utilizing it within the Galaxy S24 collection subsequent yr. The publication additional asserts that the chip is anticipated to be mass-produced in November 2023 on the earliest.

We’re not so certain about this report, although. The most important purpose for our skepticism is the truth that Qualcomm and Samsung signed a 2022 deal that makes Qualcomm Snapdragon chips the one chipset inside Galaxy S flagship telephones.

Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon famous on the time that this was a “multi-year” deal, which suggests the Galaxy S24 collection will solely be powered by Snapdragon silicon too. So we’re undoubtedly not holding our breath for an Exynos-powered Galaxy S24 collection in 2024.

Galaxy S23 FE with Exynos 2200 incoming?

In any other case, Maeil additionally corroborated a latest report that the Galaxy S23 FE is on the best way and will likely be powered by final yr’s Exynos 2200 processor. The publication asserted that the telephone will land in H2 2023 and that it may price 800,000 received (~$608). It additional claimed that Samsung has improved the yield fee of the Exynos 2200 by making unspecified “design adjustments.”

For what it’s value, rumors within the run-up to the Galaxy S22 launch instructed that Samsung had dramatically lowered the clock velocity of the Exynos 2200 GPU resulting from heating considerations. So we may probably be higher efficiency and/or effectivity than the Galaxy S22 collection if the corporate has certainly made design-related adjustments.
