Samsung appears set to continue its region-specific chipset strategy with its upcoming foldable flagships, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7. However, recent benchmark listings and leaks have now confirmed a new twist: the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will use Samsung’s Exynos 2500 in all its variants, and the Z Fold 7 will get the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip that ships internationally.

Samsung Confirms Exynos 2500 for Galaxy Z Flip 7 Worldwide, Z Fold 7 to Feature Snapdragon 8 Elite Chip

Previous rumors had pointed towards a region-based chipset split, but Geekbench results for the South Korean model of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 (model number SM-F766N) confirm it has the Exynos 2500 chip at its core. According to the listing, there is a 1+2+5+2 core configuration, which has a maximum CPU frequency of 3.30GHz, Xclipse 950 GPU, and Android 16 out of the box OS, which is coupled with 12GB of RAM. Its single-core test score is 2288 points, and its multi-core test score is 8020 points.

Thanks to this data and to Samsung’s manufacturing roadmap, it appears the Exynos 2500 will be the default SoC for the Z Flip 7 worldwide. Interestingly, this decision stands in stark contrast with the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which apparently has a clear preference for Qualcomm’s newer silicon. The aforementioned South Korean version of the Z Fold 7 (model number SM-F966N) also appeared on Geekbench, running the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy—the “leading version” of the flagship silicon with a 2+6 core layout and peak speeds of 4.47GHz.

This model comes with an Adreno 830 GPU and runs on Android 16, featuring 12GB of RAM. The Z Fold 7 achieved scores of 2617 (single-core) and 9369 (multi-core), making it one of the highest-performing foldables yet. Meanwhile, certifications from the 3C authority and databases like BIS and UL Demko confirm that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will feature a 4300mAh battery, while the Z Fold 7 will carry a 4400mAh unit, both supporting 25W fast charging.

Samsung is expected to launch both devices globally in Q3 2025. While fans of the Flip series might be curious about the Exynos 2500’s real-world performance, especially compared to the Snapdragon, benchmark scores suggest improved optimization and competitive results. However, those eyeing the Fold series can look forward to the raw power of the Snapdragon 8 Elite, likely making it the top-tier choice for foldable performance in 2025.
