Samsung has shared new info on Exynos 2500, a top chip made with a 3nm tech. This chip, the core of their new system, might run the next Galaxy Z Flip 7. It has a 10-core CPU, just like the older Exynos 2400.
Even with hard times in their 3nm tech, Samsung says that the Exynos 2500 is now being made a lot, though not too many at first. The chip also makes use of better FOWLP tech by Samsung.
The 10-core CPU setup is like this:
- One fast Cortex-X5 core at 3.30GHz.
- Two Cortex-A725 cores at 2.74GHz.
- Five Cortex-A725 cores at 2.36GHz.
- Two low-power Cortex-A520 cores at 1.80GHz.
Early tests show so-so speed when put up against MediaTek or Apple's chips. But, real tests with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 are yet to come.
GPU, AI, and Memory Bits
Also, the Exynos 2500 has:
- GPU: An Xclipse 950 GPU using AMD tech for better visuals and ray tracing. Samsung says it's 15% faster.
- AI Engine: An NPU that goes up to 59 trillion TOPS, 39% more than before.
- Memory & Storage: It can use LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage.
Samsung talks up the better use of power in the Exynos 2500, thanks to new designs, 3nm tech, and FOWLP. The FOWLP also spreads heat better and makes the chip thinner. A vapor chamber in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 could help with heat too.
Samsung adds,
"Made with new 3nm GAA tech, the Exynos 2500 uses power better and handles heat well, with a thinner chip due to FOWLP."
More key bits of the Exynos 2500 are:
- Camera Help: Up to a 320MP main camera and 8K video at 30FPS.
- Links: Bluetooth 5.4, Wi-Fi 7, and a 5G modem with fast speeds.
The Galaxy Z Flip 7, set to use the Exynos 2500, might show up at Samsung's event next month. More on how the chipset does in real life should pop up then.
