The Exynos 2600 chip has reappeared on Geekbench, and this time around it’s showing even better results. This time, it’s faster than the Snapdragon 8 Elite and the Apple A19 Pro chipsets.
The Exynos 2600 is back on Geekbench, and it’s faster than before
This time around, the Exynos 2600 managed to score 3,455 points in the single-core test and 11,621 points in the multi-core test on Geekbench. This is like the third time it surfaced. The first time, the results were completely off, while the second time they were a bit lower than they are now.
Even with such improvements, this chip is still behind the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. That chip managed to score 3,832 points in the single-core test and 12,170 points in the multi-core test. The difference is not that big, however.
Not many people will have an issue with this as long as the Exynos 2600 delivers in the other two sectors. Those sectors are power consumption and thermals. The chip needs to be well-optimized for power consumption and be able to compete in thermals with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and MediaTek Dimensity 9500.
This will be a 2nm chip, and it will be used by the Galaxy S26 series next year
This processor is expected to be made using Samsung’s 2nm node. As many of you know, both the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and MediaTek Dimensity 9500 are 3nm chips.
The Exynos 2600 is expected to be used in at least half of Samsung Galaxy S26 series smartphones. Well, at least based on reports. Samsung is planning to use that chip in a number of markets. A recent report did mention that Samsung may not use it at all in the Galaxy S26 series, though.
That chip could be one of the reasons Samsung’s allegedly decided to postpone the launch of the Galaxy S26 series. Instead of in January, all three phones are tipped to arrive in late February or early March.
