Samsung plans to use Exynos chips on more mobile devices (Image: Extremetech)Previously, Samsung heavily relied on Qualcomm for premium phone chips. Evidence lies in the exclusive use of Snapdragon chips in foldable phones and the Galaxy S23 series. However, Samsung has decided to use Exynos chips in the Samsung Galaxy S24 series to cut costs, anticipating potential future price hikes from Qualcomm.
Samsung has reduced its usage of Exynos chips in Galaxy devices. In the fourth quarter of 2023, only 13 million devices were equipped with Exynos chips, marking a 48% decrease compared to the same period in 2022. Revenue from this processing unit also dropped by 44%. This is primarily because Samsung procured more chips from Qualcomm for high-end devices and from MediaTek for budget phones.

The company also emphasizes that the prices of processors have risen by about 30% compared to the previous year.
According to rumors, Samsung plans to increase the usage of Exynos chips on Galaxy devices from 2024 onwards to reduce import costs. They will also invest in improving performance and power efficiency for Exynos chips to meet user demands.
There are rumors that the Galaxy S25 series will exclusively use Exynos chips (Image: Gadgets360)Samsung is gradually transitioning to using Exynos chips in its Galaxy product lines. There are rumors that Samsung will only utilize Exynos chips for the Samsung Galaxy S25 series. The new Samsung Galaxy A35 5G and Samsung Galaxy A55 5G models have also adopted Exynos chips, and Samsung is considering replacing MediaTek chips in its budget product line with their own processors.
