- Samsung will reportedly use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip exclusively in its upcoming foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6.
- This contradicts earlier rumors that the Z Flip 6 might feature Samsung’s own Exynos 2400 chip in certain regions.
- The Galaxy S24 series utilizes a dual-chip strategy with both Snapdragon and Exynos variants depending on the region.
Samsung is reportedly continuing its tradition of using a single chipset for its upcoming foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6. The company often resorts to a dual-chip strategy for its flagship Galaxy S series, where it has typically used Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processors in North America and its own Exynos chips in other regions.
Previous rumors had hinted at the possibility of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 coming with the Exynos 2400 chipset in certain markets, similar to the strategy employed for the Galaxy S24 series. However, a report from The Elec suggests that both the Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 will exclusively utilize the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset globally.
