Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipsets were used in Samsung’s Galaxy S23 series released last week. According to the latest rumors, the Korean maker is still working on its own Exynos platform for the flagships.
Samsung is working on an Exynos 2400, according to Ice Universe. Rather than having an octa-core architecture, the chipset will have 10 cores – 1 Cortex-X4 + 2 Cortex-A720 (higher frequency) + 3 Cortex-A720 (lower frequency) + 4 Cortex-520.
The Exynos 2400 seems promising based on the leaked information. We can only learn so much from dry specs. With Samsung shifting to deca-core architecture, other manufacturers may follow suit.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 integrates 8 cores, with a prime core based on the ARM Cortex-X3 architecture and clocked at up to 3.2 GHz for 64-bit applications. In contrast, Apple’s latest A16 bionic chip has two cores running at 3460 MHz and four cores running at 2020 MHz.
The foldable, usually launched in summer, has used Qualcomm chipsets since it first launched. Following Exynos 2100 in 2021 for the S21 series and Exynos 2200 a year later, the Exynos 2400 is expected for the Galaxy S24 series in twelve months.
