Samsung has officially unveiled the Exynos 2600, claiming it as the world’s first 2nm mobile processor, marking a major milestone for the company’s semiconductor division and its future flagship smartphones.
Built on Samsung Foundry’s advanced 2nm Gate-All-Around (GAA) process, the Exynos 2600 promises notable gains in performance, power efficiency, and AI processing over previous generations. Samsung says the new process enables higher transistor density while reducing power consumption, addressing long-standing efficiency concerns around earlier Exynos chips.
The chipset features a 10-core CPU based on ARM’s latest architecture, paired with the new Xclipse 960 GPU, which is based on AMD RDNA graphics technology. According to Samsung, the GPU delivers major improvements in graphics compute and ray-tracing performance, while the upgraded NPU more than doubles AI processing capability, targeting on-device generative AI and advanced camera features.
On the multimedia side, the Exynos 2600 supports camera sensors up to 320MP, advanced HDR imaging, and 8K video recording, alongside modern standards like LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. Samsung has also introduced a new thermal design solution to improve sustained performance under heavy workloads.
The Exynos 2600 is expected to power select variants of Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy S26 series, depending on market, positioning Samsung ahead of rivals in semiconductor manufacturing at least on paper.
