Highlights
3nm GAA Process: Samsung’s most advanced chip yet (mass production confirmed).
10-Core Beast: 1x Cortex-X925 (3.3GHz) + 7x A725 + 2x A520 cores.
59TOPS NPU: 39% faster AI than Exynos 2400 – real-time video/voice processing.
Console-Grade Graphics: Xclipse 950 GPU with AMD RDNA3 ray tracing.
FOWLP Packaging: 75% thinner, better cooling & battery efficiency.
Samsung just launched the Exynos 2500 – its flagship chip built on a cutting-edge 3nm GAA process. After facing production challenges, this powerhouse is set to debut in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 this autumn. Here’s what matters:
- CPU: 10 Cores, Raw Speed
- 1x Cortex-X925 (3.3GHz) for heavy tasks.
- 7x Cortex-A725 (2x at 2.74GHz + 5x at 2.36GHz) for multitasking.
- 2x Cortex-A520 (1.8GHz) for efficiency.
Leaked Geekbench 6 scores trail rivals like Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, but Samsung claims 15% single-core gains. Real-world tests on the Z Flip 7 will decide!

- GPU: Ray Tracing for Mobile
The Xclipse 950 GPU uses AMD’s RDNA3 tech to deliver hardware-level ray tracing – think console-quality shadows and lighting in mobile games.
- NPU: AI Monster (59TOPS)
The neural processor hits 59TOPS – 39% faster than Exynos 2400. Expect smoother AI cameras, voice assistants, and 8K video processing.
- FOWLP: Smarter Packaging
Fan-Out Wafer-Level Packaging makes the chip 75% thinner while boosting heat dissipation and battery life – crucial for foldables like the Z Flip 7.
- Other Specs
- Memory: LPDDR5X RAM + UFS 4.0 storage.
- Camera: Supports 320MP sensors and 8K/30fps video.
- Connectivity: Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, 5G (12.1Gbps download).
Catch: 3nm GAA production issues may limit supply. Samsung will reveal full details at Galaxy Unpacked next month.
