Samsung is gearing up to target a broader audience in the foldable phone market with the budget-friendly Galaxy Z Flip FE model. While details about this device have been scarce until now, recent developments shed light on its specifications. According to the latest reports, the chipset powering the Galaxy Z Flip FE is now largely confirmed. Here are the details!
Which Chipset Will Power the Galaxy Z Flip FE?
Reliable industry sources indicate that Samsung’s in-house Exynos 2500 processor initially faced numerous production challenges due to low efficiency rates. These issues have significantly hindered the chipset’s use in the flagship Galaxy S25 series, which has high performance expectations.
Reports suggest that even if the processor is included in the Galaxy S25 lineup, it will be limited to select countries. This implies that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite will be the primary chipset for the new series. However, the situation is set to differ for Samsung’s foldable phones.
If all goes smoothly, the budget-friendly Galaxy Z Flip FE and Z Flip 7 models, expected to launch next year, will feature the Exynos 2500 chipset. Historically, previous Z Flip models were exclusively equipped with Snapdragon processors. This change signifies the end of an era with the introduction of these new models.
