Industry doubts over Samsung’s ‘premature’ flagship chip

Samsung may have started mass production of its Exynos 2600 for the upcoming Galaxy S26 series, but the Korean giant’s 2nm GAA (gate-all-around) process still appears to be wobbling.

Hopes to win back Qualcomm with shiny new silicon

Samsung has shipped a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 sample produced on its 2nm GAA process to Qualcomm for evaluation, marking a potential turning point in its bruised relationship with the US chip designer.

Yields creep up to 50 per cent 

Samsung has finally pulled the trigger on mass production of the Exynos 2600, its first 2nm GAA SoC built on the SF2 process.

Chip to power Galaxy S26, if it survives yield roulette

Samsung is throwing everything behind its Exynos 2600, a mobile chip meant to both revive its self-made application processor line and prove its foundry isn’t bluffing with the 2nm node hype.

Apparently, there was an intervention

The dark satanic rumour mill has manufactured a hell-on-earth yarn claiming that Samsung wants to stop using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processors for flagship devices.
