The tradition for a few years now has been that the Galaxy S and the Galaxy Note series will be powered by the same Exynos processor. However, that will be changing this year. The Galaxy Note10 and Galaxy Note10+ will be powered by a new Exynos chipset which has been reported will arrive as the Exynos 9825.

Today, Samsung has confirmed that a new chipset is indeed coming and it will launch on August 7, the same day the Galaxy Note10 series will be unveiled.

The official Samsung Exynos Twitter account shared a video teaser ahead of the launch. The eleven-second video doesn’t reveal any detail about the chipset.

Based on reports, the Exynos 9825 will be a 7nm chipset unlike the Exynos 9820 that is 8nm. The smaller node size should bring improvements in performance and power efficiency.

The Galaxy Note10 powered by the Exynos 9825 appeared on Geekbench last month. There is even a comparison with the Galaxy S10+.

Samsung will announce the Galaxy Note10 series in New York. A few days before then, August 5 to be precise, Samsung will announce the Galaxy Watch Active 2. However, we have a feeling there will be another product announced alongside the phones at the event in New York. The event will be live-streamed on YouTube.
