We exclusively reported<\/a> last week that Samsung’s first 3nm smartphone chip will debut with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in July<\/a>. A new leak has now shed some light on the Exynos 2500’s performance, as the unannounced processor has showed up in Geekbench’s database.\n<\/p>\n

Let us have a look at the performance figures of the Exynos 2500.<\/p>\n

\nGalaxy Z Flip 7 could use Exynos 2500 worldwide; CPU performance revealed\n<\/p>\n

The US (carrier-locked) variant of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 with model number SM-F766U was spotted (via @yabhishekhd<\/a>) in Geekbench’s database. It reveals some of the Galaxy Z Flip 7’s specs<\/a>, including its Exynos 2500 chip (S5E9955) and 12GB of RAM. As we exclusively reported<\/a> earlier, the phone runs Android 16 (One UI 8.0) out of the box.<\/p>\n

The Exynos 2500 scored 2,012 points in Geekbench’s (version 6) single-core CPU test and 7,563 points in the multi-core CPU test. These scores are much lower than most recent flagship chips from Apple, MediaTek, and Qualcomm. Even Xiaomi’s first in-house flagship chip<\/a> performs much better than this.\n<\/p>\n

The Exynos 2500 is just slightly better than last year’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip that was used in the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy Z Flip 6, and the Galaxy Z Fold 6.\n<\/p>\n

Maybe Samsung has intentionally clocked the chip much lower than what is possible to better manage thermals inside the Galaxy Z Flip 7. However, it still doesn’t look good that Samsung’s first 3nm chip is far behind its rivals in terms of raw performance.<\/p>\n

\nExynos 2500 specifications revealed\n<\/p>\n

\"samsung<\/p>\n

The Exynos 2500 has a 10-core CPU, featuring one Cortex-X925 CPU core running at 3.3GHz, two Cortex-A725 CPU cores clocked at 2.75GHz, five Cortex-A725 CPU cores clocked at 2.36GHz, and two Cortex-A520 CPU cores running at 1.8GHz. It uses Samsung’s in-house Xclipse 950 GPU, likely based on AMD’s RDNA 3.5 architecture. We notice that its prime CPU core (Cortex-X925) is clocked at much lower speeds than the competition, which are close to 4GHz or even higher.\n<\/p>\n

Since the variant of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 bound for the USA uses an Exynos chip, it is likely that Samsung will use it in all the Galaxy Z Flip 7 units sold globally. Our previous report already revealed that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 sold in India and South Korea will have the Exynos 2500 chip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We exclusively reported last week that Samsung’s first 3nm smartphone chip will debut with the Galaxy Z Flip…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":132751,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[58490,58491,58492,58493,58494,53,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-132750","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-3nm","9":"tag-exynos","10":"tag-exynos-2500","11":"tag-galaxy-z-flip-7","12":"tag-system-lsi","13":"tag-technology","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114573139269593746","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132750","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132750"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132750\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/132751"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132750"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132750"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132750"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
