hello. This is Technologytodaynow. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is likely to be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite instead of the Exynos 2500 chipset. However, there was a recent report that it has been confirmed to be equipped with the Exynos 2500, so let’s take a closer look.
Galaxy Z Flip 7, which seemed highly likely to be equipped with Snapdragon 8 Elite instead of Exynos 2500

There were a lot of different predictions about the upcoming AP for the Galaxy Z Flip 7. However, according to recent news, it seemed likely to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite rather than the Exynos 2500. The Snapdragon 8 Elite was expected to deliver the same outstanding user experience as the Galaxy S series, as the Snapdragon 8 Elite showed outstanding performance in terms of performance and power efficiency.
Flipped news, Galaxy Z Flip 7 confirmed to be equipped with Exynos 2500
However, a report that overturns this prediction has come out again. According to an exclusive report by Chosun Ilbo, the AP to be installed in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 has been confirmed to be the Exynos 2500. According to the report, Samsung Electronics has confirmed that the Galaxy Z Flip 7, which is scheduled to be released in the second half of this year, will be equipped with the Exynos 2500, making it the first case of a foldable smartphone being equipped with the Exynos.
As I said before, according to a report by Wccftech, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 was tested with the Snapdragon 8 Elite in an internal test conducted by Samsung Electronics, so it was certain that the Snapdragon 8 Elite would be installed.
Galaxy Z Flip 7, why was it suddenly decided to be Exynos 2500?
According to one official mentioned in the report, the reason for installing Exynos instead of Snapdragon is largely due to price factors, and it was determined that the production yield of Exynos has stabilized, and also that the production volume of the Flip series is smaller than that of the Galaxy S series, so it was possible to install it. On the other hand, it is said that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite. This decision is not good news from our perspective.
It’s a shame that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 doesn’t feature a Snapdragon processor.
It’s hard to make an accurate judgment on performance because a product equipped with the Exynos 2500 has never been released, but it will certainly be inferior to the Snapdragon 8 Elite in terms of performance and power efficiency, and that doesn’t mean the price will be reduced just because it’s equipped with the Exynos 2500. I think the Galaxy Z Flip 7 could have been a masterpiece if the cover display had been changed to full screen and the Snapdragon 8 Elite had been equipped.
The S25 series received good reviews thanks to Snapdragon, even though it hasn’t changed much, the plscreen cover display is a pretty good change.
As Snapdragon’s performance is excellent, I think it will be relatively disappointing.
