Samsung is one of the few brands that use its self developed chips for its smartphones. The Exynos lineup has powered every range of Galaxy devices, from budget to flagship. However, the company’s more premium lineup like the Galaxy Z series of foldable phones has typically launched with Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 series chips. But it appears that this might not be the case for the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 arriving exclusively with Exynos 2500
The latest information arrives from Seoul Economic Daily. The new report claims that the South Korean tech giant is planning on kicking off the mass production of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 next month. Although, what really caught our eye was the details regarding the next gen Samsung flip phone. The brand is apparently planning on launching the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in an Exynos 2500 only variant.
To recall, the Exynos 2500 is a 3nm chipset which was rumored to launch with the Galaxy S25. In other words, this would mark the first time ever that Samsung’s flip phone won’t pack a Snapdragon chipset. According to industry sources close to the matter, the company will begin mass production of both foldable smartphones next month from manufacturing sites in South Korea and Vietnam.
Based on what we know so far, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 may sport a bigger cover display, while its protective cases were also leaked. The report adds that Samsung plans on producing around 240,000 units of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and 170,000 units of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE in the second quarter of 2025. On the other hand, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 would get an initial batch of 160,000 units.
The Galaxy Z Flip has been quite popular thanks to its more affordable pricing and design. So it’s no surprise that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is getting more units. However, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is a new entry, but Samsung could be expecting decent demand.
