  • A leaker has posted a screenshot that seemingly suggests the Galaxy S25 series will be available with an Exynos chip.
  • A closer look at the image leaves us feeling less certain, though.
  • This comes after a recent report that the phones would only have Snapdragon chips.

There have been several conflicting reports and leaks about the Galaxy S25‘s choice of processor. We recently heard that the phones would be exclusively powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip, but a leaker has now claimed otherwise.

Tipster @theonecid on Twitter has posted a screenshot of what seems to be a system utility app, apparently showing a Samsung phone running the upcoming Samsung Exynos 2500 processor. The screenshot mentions the chip’s rumored model number (S5E9955), along with a 10-core CPU, the Xclipse 950 GPU, a QHD+ screen resolution, and Android 15. The tipster asserted that this screenshot means the Galaxy S25 series will be available with an Exynos chipset.
