After struggling for a long time with its 3nm process, a company official confirmed yesterday that it managed to stabilize the situation. Now, a leak claims that Samsung plans to return to using Exynos hardware in the Galaxy S26 series.<br \/>\nSamsung Foundry\u2019s main problem was the low yield rates of its 3nm GAA wafers. Insiders revealed that the yield rate was between 10% and 30%, making mass production of the Exynos 2500 chip commercially unviable. This forced the company to resort to the expensive Snapdragon 8 Elite for the entire Galaxy S25 series worldwide. Plus, the firm lost major clients, including NVIDIA, as its factories were not up to par when it came to using the most modern chip production processes.<br \/>\nSamsung to \u201csignificantly\u201d implement Exynos chips in the Galaxy S26 series, claims reliable tipster<br \/>\nSamsung managed to stabilize its 3nm chip process, which means that the yield rate now makes mass production viable. While it couldn\u2019t do it in time for the Galaxy S25 series, the company is expected to turn to Exynos hardware for many devices going forward. In line with that, tipster Jukanlosreve said on X\/Twitter that Samsung will \u201csignificantly\u201d implement Exynos chips in the Galaxy S26 series.<br \/>\nThis doesn\u2019t mean that we\u2019ll see Exynos hardware in all Galaxy S26 models but in many of them. It\u2019s possible that the brand will return to its strategy of equipping the non-Ultra models with Exynos chips, reserving Snapdragon hardware for the most expensive variant. Also, according to reports, Samsung will add a \u201cSlim\u201d model to its Galaxy S25 series. If that happens, it will probably keep it for future generations. So, another model with the 2026 flagship Exynos SoC could be the potential Galaxy S26 Slim.<br \/>\nA report from October suggested that even the entire Galaxy S26 series could be powered by Snapdragon chips. At the time, the situation seemed hopeless for Samsung. However, things may have changed after the stabilization of its Foundry wafers.<br \/>\nExynos 2500 will power the next-gen Galaxy Z Flip models<br \/>\nRecently, Samsung confirmed that it will implement the Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Flip FE. You can expect to see more and more Exynos-powered devices from Samsung in the future. For the company, this is great news as it will allow it to save on production costs. According to reports, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 will be even more expensive than the Snapdragon 8 Elite. The latter is already 30% more expensive than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.<br \/>\nThe post Flagship Exynos SoCs tipped to return in the Galaxy S26 series appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Samsung-exynos-google-jpg.jpg\" width=\"1400\" height=\"788\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Things seem to be starting to look up for Samsung\u2019s semiconductor business.
