The new Snapdragon 8 General 5 was announced in the late September and it was built by TSMC on a 3NM node, but according to the latest rumor, Samsung will be assigned to the “Galaxy” repetition product, which is implementing the company’s past couple to its flagship phone.
Moreover, the Snapdragon 8 General 5 for the Galaxy SOC will not be an overclocked version of the standard, but it will be created on Samsung’s 2NM GAA process.
Qualcomm also officially announced that Samsung will be a new chip in its upcoming flagship phone, which would spread rumors about the Galaxy S26 series once again on Qualcomm’s platform. However, the report suggests that the upcoming “Galaxy” chipset will be used in Samsung’s 2026 foldables next summer, leaving Exynos 2600 for the Galaxy S series.
