How will the Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 perform? A benchmark gives us some answers. Samsung will launch its foldable smartphone on the market in a few days.
Samsung has officially unveiled its new Exynos 2500 chip. The SoC, which wasn't ready to power the Galaxy S25s earlier this year, will power the Galaxy Z Flip 7, the brand's next foldable clamshell smartphone. We're naturally wondering about the chip's performance, as Samsung hasn't been able to match Qualcomm for a long time now. And a benchmark confirms our fears: we shouldn't expect power equal to that of a Snapdragon 8 Elite.
The Galaxy Z Flip 7 has undergone a Geekbench test. It obtained a single-core score of 2,356 and a multi-core score of 8,076. This is quite far from the performance measured on the Galaxy S25 and its Snapdragon 8 Elite. However, it is slightly above the figures obtained on a previous benchmark. Hopefully, Samsung will continue to optimize the device and achieve better results leading up to its release.
Galaxy Z Flip 7 fails to impress on Geekbench
The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to be announced on July 9th at a Galaxy Unpacked conference, alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 7, the Galaxy Watch 8 smartwatches, and the Galaxy Buds wireless earbuds. Typically, Samsung starts selling its smartphones two weeks after their presentation, which would lead to availability on July 23rd. In a month, with system patches, we might be able to squeeze more out of the Exynos 2500's potential.
Samsung's SoC features a 10-core CPU, including a powerful one clocked at 3.30 GHz, two Cortex-A725 cores at 2.75 GHz, five Cortex-A725 cores at 2.36 GHz, and two power-saving Cortex-A520 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz. The GPU would be a Samsung Xclipse 950, designed with AMD, based on the RDNA 3 architecture. 12 GB of RAM is now the minimum required on the high-end Android to power the AI functions.
We now wait for the official release of the mobile by Samsung and to have it in our hands to judge its performance in real conditions.
