Exynos 2700 To Enter Mass Production In H2 2026, Analyst Says SoC’s Adoption In Galaxy S27 Will Increase Drastically

Samsung’s estimated chipset share of the Exynos 2600 found in the upcoming Galaxy S26 series is said to be 25 percent, with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 accounting for the remaining tally. Fortunately, this figure could see a drastic uplift next year with the arrival of the Exynos 2700. According to an analyst, not only is the chipset expected to enter mass production in the second half of this year, but Qualcomm isn’t going to be enjoying the lion’s share of its chipsets powering the Galaxy S27 family.

The latest report states that the Exynos 2700 share of the Galaxy S27 series will reach 50%, putting a major dent in Qualcomm’s revenue

Kiwoom Securities’ analyst Park Yu-ak has been reported by Korea Economic Daily to have talked about Samsung’s mass production plans concerning the Exynos 2700. With the foundry giant’s 2nm GAA yields estimated to be at 50 percent, and the company’s ambitious goal focused on securing a 130 percent growth in chip orders, it is safe to assume that Samsung has made tremendous progress with its next-generation lithography.

Sure, the yields could see some improvement, but the company has already asked its partners to begin promoting the second-generation 2nm GAA node, also known as SF2P, which is expected to be utilized for the Exynos 2700. The Korean technology behemoth was said to have completed the basic design of this manufacturing process back in 2025, hinting that it is already one step ahead in reducing its reliance on Qualcomm.

Fortunately, increasing the adoption of the Exynos 2700 in the Galaxy S27 lineup isn’t going to be the only perk for Samsung because stabilized yields of the SF2P node mean that the company can finally obtain new customers and reach profitability, with the firm reportedly aiming for 2027 as the year when its foundry business finally becomes net-positive in cash flow.

As for the rest of the statistics, the report mentions that Samsung’s non-memory division’s sales are estimated to reach 36.4 trillion won ($24.99 billion), resulting in a 21 percent year-over-year increase, with operating profit reaching 1.8 trillion won ($1.2 billion). As for the Exynos 2700’s technical specifications, a previous benchmark leak revealed a unique ‘4 + 1 + 4 + 1’ cluster. Samsung also plans to move to its in-house GPU, but that’s expected to happen with the Exynos 2800.
