Samsung might go with either Dimensity 9400 or Exynos 2500 chip for the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+.
The Galaxy S25+ with model number SM-S936B was spotted on Geekbench.
The listing revealed that it will run on the Exynos 2500 chipset in the European market.
As 2025 comes closer, all eyes are on Samsung as it gears up to launch its flagship S25 series. If reports are to be believed, Samsung is planning for an early 2025 launch of the Galaxy S25 series. The rumour mill suggests that the higher-end variant from the S25 series, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, can be powered by the recently launched Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. However, Samsung might use a different chipset from the other two smartphones in the lineup- the Galaxy S25 and the Galaxy S25+.
The South Korean tech giant might go with either MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400 or Samsung’s own Exynos 2500 chip for the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+ smartphones. The alleged Samsung Galaxy S25+ with model number SM-S936B was spotted on Geekbench, which revealed it will run on the Exynos 2500 chipset in the European market. The processor is paired with 12GB of RAM and runs on Android 15.
The Geekbench listing further reveals the device benchmark scores. The Galaxy S25+ achieved 2,359 in single-core and 8,141 in multi-core tests. The Exynos 2500 is Samsung’s latest 10-core CPU and it includes the Xclipse 950 GPU which has been developed with AMD’s RDNA technology. This hints at improved graphic powers.
The Exynos 2500 did get a competitive multi-core score, however, it lags behind Snapdragon’s 8 Elite chipset in single-core performance. Another report revealed that the Galaxy S25 Ultra tested with Snapdragon 8 Elite achieved 3,096 in single-core and 9,080 in multi-core scores.
If we consider this then it means that the Exynos chipset wouldn’t be able to run intensive tasks like high-resolution gaming and video recording as smoothly as the Snapdragon or MediaTek chipsets.
However, let’s not read too much into the benchmarks as real-life performance is not really reflected. Many brands even optimise devices specifically for benchmark scores. We just have to wait for a couple of months before we get the real picture.
