What you need to know

  • Samsung is reportedly prepping the Galaxy S26 for early 2026, and the old split-chip strategy might be back, with Europe likely to get Exynos 2600, while the rest of the world sees Snapdragon.
  • Exynos chips have been a tough sell in Europe, especially with their lower performance, weaker graphics, and worse battery life compared to Snapdragon.
  • Exynos 2600 might be more energy-efficient (15–25%) than its predecessor, but its production yield isn’t there yet.
