"According to a report by Korea Economic Daily, the Galaxy S26 lineup will be powered by an in-house Exynos 2600 chipset. The new processor is said to be housed in approximately 50% of the Galaxy S26 devices across South Korea and European regions. The US, Japan, and China markets will reportedly get Qualcomm-powered units. For reference, Samsung used to have Exynos-powered flagship Galaxy S-series phones until the Galaxy S22."
"It is very early in the Galaxy S26 rumor cycle, but the flagship lineup has Galaxy Z Fold 7's success to match. There have been confusing details about Samsung's upcoming phones. Earlier, there were rumors of a Galaxy S26 Pro, but they were later discarded. Similarly, some speculated that the Korean company would replace its Plus model with a Galaxy S26 Edge, but recently, another report claimed that there won't be any Edge after the next variant."
Galaxy S26 lineup will use an in-house Exynos 2600 chipset in about half of units sold in South Korea and Europe, while US, Japan, and China will receive Qualcomm-powered models. The Exynos 2600 is manufactured by Samsung Foundry and reportedly uses a 2nm process. Samsung previously used Exynos for flagships until the Galaxy S22, then shifted to Qualcomm for recent S-series models, while reintroducing Exynos in the Galaxy Z Flip 7. Rumors remain conflicting about variant names and configurations, but the base, Plus, and Ultra models are expected with meaningful camera upgrades.
