Exynos 2600 Leak Hints at 2nm Chip, 10-Core CPU, and New AMD-Based GPU
Fresh leaks surrounding Samsung’s upcoming Exynos 2600 chipset reveal key details about its CPU architecture, clock speeds, manufacturing process, and a next-generation GPU developed with AMD. While Samsung has only teased the chip officially, the new information suggests the Exynos 2600 could be a major leap forward in mobile performance and efficiency.
According to industry sources, the Exynos 2600 will be Samsung’s first processor built on its 2nm Gate-All-Around (GAA) process. This advanced node is expected to deliver improved performance per watt, better thermal efficiency, and longer battery life compared to previous Exynos chips.
The leaked CPU configuration points to a 10-core design in a 1 + 3 + 6 layout. It includes one prime core for intensive tasks, three performance cores for demanding workloads, and six efficiency cores for power-saving operations. Clock speeds are reportedly capped at 3.8GHz for the prime core, with performance cores running at around 3.25GHz and efficiency cores at 2.75GHz, balancing speed and energy efficiency.
On the graphics side, the leak mentions a new AMD-powered GPU codenamed “JUNO.” The GPU is said to run at nearly 985MHz and support modern APIs such as Vulkan 1.3, OpenGL ES 3.2, and OpenCL 3.0, promising better gaming performance and improved graphics capabilities. This has raised questions about whether JUNO replaces or rebrands the previously expected Xclipse GPU.
Although Samsung has not confirmed these specifications, reports suggest an official launch could happen as early as late January. If accurate, the Exynos 2600 may help Samsung regain competitiveness in the flagship mobile chipset market.
