We’re still months out from the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, but rumors are already swirling (as they do) about what the phone will look like. One contentious area of discussion, as ever, is the chipset debate. Exynos vs Snapdragon might be put on ice next generation, as the rumor mill can’t its their mind up whether Samsung will go all-in on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 or manage to manufacture sufficient in-house Exynos 2500s to ship both.
Either way, the chipset issue is shaping up to be an expensive one. Dubious yields from Samsung’s foundry will push up the cost of production, and the 8 Gen 4 is rumored to cost notably more than its predecessor — owing to both a custom CPU core and cutting-edge manufacturing process. Neither bodes well for the entry-level Galaxy S25’s price tag, and I’d hate to think about what the Ultra might cost. If only there was some other option to keep those prices down.
