According to a new report, some Galaxy Z Flip 6 models could include an Exynos SoC, instead of a Snapdragon one. In other words, Samsung could use the Exynos 2400 in some variants, instead of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
Some Galaxy Z Flip 6 models could end up using the Exynos 2400 SoC
This information comes from Revegnus, a tipster. He doesn’t seem to be fully convinced it’ll happen, however. He said that he wouldn’t “be surprised even if the Exynos is included in this year’s Flip 6”.
So, it’s not set in stone. Samsung has a tendency to stick to Snapdragon processors in its Fold and Flip models. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Flip 5 are both fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chip.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are expected to ship with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy SoC. If this rumor ends up being true, however, units in Europe, for example, could end up sporting the Exynos 2400.
The Galaxy Z Fold 6 was not mentioned in this report
The tipster did mention the Galaxy Z Flip 6 in specific, not the Galaxy Z Fold 6. So the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will hopefully avoid the same fate. The Exynos 2400 is a much better SoC than its predecessor, but the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 reigns supreme.
Both the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are expected to launch in July. July 10 has been tipped as the launch date, as the two phones are expected to launch in Paris, France.
Samsung usually launches its ‘Fold’ and ‘Flip’ foldables later on, but due to the Olympic Games that kick off on July 26 in the same city, the company decided to move up the launch of its new foldables.
Samsung did not officially confirm that date just yet, however. We’ll have to wait to be sure.
