There has been a lot of debate in the media about which chipsets Samsung will use for the upcoming Galaxy S25 series. Some rumors suggest that the lineup will exclusively feature the Exynos 2500 chip. Others claim that the poor performance of the Exynos may force Samsung to use both Exynos and Snapdragon chips again, despite the fact that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is potentially more expensive.
A new unexpected rumor adds another twist, suggesting that there could be a third chip brand. According to sources cited by the Korean edition of The Financial News, Samsung may be adopting a three-chip strategy for the first time for the Galaxy S25. This report claims that Samsung is considering not only the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Exynos 2500, but also the MediaTek Dimensity chip for the Galaxy S25.
On the other hand, the inclusion of MediaTek could help Samsung balance power and prevent the price of its smartphones from rising. Industry experts already believe that Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 could be 25-30% more expensive than the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip.
The rumor does not specify which regions will receive which chips. If true, the MediaTek-powered Galaxy S25 could be limited to a few select regions, such as China, while the rest of the world will follow the Exynos-Qualcomm dual-chip strategy.
It is important to take these rumors with a certain amount of skepticism. There is no concrete evidence to support this claim yet, and the official announcement of the Galaxy S25 is still a few months away. A lot can change by the beginning of 2025.
