After confirming that Samsung's Exynos 2600 chipset will be the world's first mobile SoC manufactured using a 2nm process, reports from Korea reveal that the chip is now ready for mass production. Following improved benchmark scores in Geekbench, the decision on whether to incorporate the Exynos 2600 in the upcoming Galaxy S26 series is expected to be made in the fourth quarter of this year.
The Exynos 2600's potential inclusion in the Galaxy S26 lineup signals a significant comeback for Samsung's in-house flagship SoC, following the underwhelming performance of the Exynos 2500. There are speculations that the chip's heat generation issues may be addressed with the addition of a new "heat pass block", functioning as a heat sink component.
