Samsung Electronics is augmenting its lineup of in-house chipsets with the introduction of a next-generation Exynos 2500 chip, alongside initiating mass production.

Just a few weeks ago, it was reported that Samsung is accelerating the development of the Exynos 2500 for release in the second half of 2025. Although the company had initially planned to utilize its in-house Exynos 2500 to power its newly launched Galaxy S25 series, it ultimately opted for the Snapdragon 8 Elite instead. However, it is now possible that the Exynos 2500 chip could be used to power upcoming flagship devices, including the Galaxy Z Flip 7.

A reliable source, Jukanlosreve, shared a post on X, stating that Samsung Electronics has begun mass production of the Exynos 2500 chip. According to the source, the company plans to produce approximately 5,000 units per month initially, with the yield of the Exynos 2500 expected to be below 50%.

It is reportedly expected that the Korean technology giant will utilize the Exynos 2500 chipset to power its upcoming Galaxy Z Flip foldable phones. However, there is no official confirmation regarding which Galaxy device will be the first to feature this chipset. Additionally, the source mentioned that the yield of the Exynos 2600 is 30%.

Previously, there were reports suggesting that Samsung might debut the Exynos 2500 chipset with the Galaxy Z Flip 7. The expected specifications of the chipset include one ARM Cortex-X925 core @3.3GHz, two ARM Cortex-A725 CPU cores @2.75GHz, five Cortex-A725 cores @2.36GHz, two Cortex-A520 cores @1.8GHz, 16MB of L3 cache, a 1.3GHz Samsung Xclipse 950 GPU with AMD RDNA3.5 architecture, and an NPU with 56 TOPs.
