Samsung’s new generation mobile processor, the Exynos 2500, has been revealed in performance tests before its official introduction. The chipset, which the company developed for the first time with 3nm production technology, will be used in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 model, which is expected to be released in July. However, the results in Geekbench tests show that the chip does not deliver the expected performance.

Exynos 2500 processor revealed in performance test

According to Geekbench 6 test results, the Exynos 2500 achieved 2,012 points in single-core performance and 7,563 points in multi-core performance. These scores fall behind both Apple and Qualcomm’s current flagship chips. Even Xiaomi’s own new flagship chip leaves the Exynos 2500 behind.

Compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 that Samsung used in the Galaxy S24 series last year, the Exynos 2500 provides only a small advantage. The company’s first mobile processor to switch to the 3nm production process was disappointing, especially for users with high performance expectations.

The Exynos 2500 has a total of 10-core CPU structure. One Cortex-X925 core in the structure runs at 3.3 GHz, two Cortex-A725 cores at 2.75 GHz, five Cortex-A725 cores at 2.36 GHz, and two Cortex-A520 cores at 1.8 GHz.

On the graphics side, there is the Xclipse 950 GPU, which is estimated to be based on AMD’s RDNA 3.5 architecture. However, the fact that the main performance core, the Cortex-X925, runs at a relatively low speed of 3.3 GHz raises questions about the chip’s overall performance. It is known that rival manufacturers push similar cores up to 4 GHz.
