With a few weeks to go until Samsung unveils the Galaxy S25 series, word on the street is that the Snapdragon 8 Elite CPU will power all three versions. That’s Qualcomm’s newest flagship chip for premium Android devices, which has already impressed in performance and battery life tests.
Some leakers said Samsung would go for the Elite earlier this fall. Since then, we have seen reports that Samsung might switch to Exynos 2500 chips for some Galaxy S25 variants. That wouldn’t be surprising, considering Samsung did the same with the Galaxy S24 series last year and other past Galaxy S versions.
Fast-forward to mid-December and reports say that the Snapdragon 8 Elite is the only choice for Samsung’s Galaxy S25 phones. The chip will be more expensive, however. Samsung might increase the price of all Galaxy S25 models in some markets.
That said, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Flip FE foldables might skip the Snapdragon 8 Elite in favor of the Exynos 2500. Apparently, Samsung is catching up, and yields are improving for the chip.
