Samsung has finally unveiled its flagship Exynos 2600 chipset, the world’s first 2nm Gate-All-Around (GAA) smartphone processor. Expected to power the upcoming Galaxy S26 series, the phone succeeds Exynos 2500 with improvements in performance and ray tracing, among others.
Enter Samsung Exynos 2600 chipset
Samsung’s Exynos 2600 chipset delivers up to 39% improved performance and up to 50% better ray tracing performance owing to the new Xclipse 960 GPU. The silicon features a 10-core CPU leveraging the all-new C1-Ultra and C1-Pro cores. The company seems to optimize it most for power-heavy performance, as we see a combination of high-performing and mid-performing cores.
The system on a chip (SoC) features an advanced AI-based resolution scaling that will ensure more immersive and realistic gaming on Samsung phones.
According to Samsung, the premium-grade chipset supports up to 320 MP cameras and brings zero shutter lag to 108 MP optics. As expected, phones with this chipset can record 8K videos at 30fps and 4K ones at 120fps.
