There's a lot of excitement for the Exynos 2600. The Galaxy S26 will mark a milestone moment for Samsung as it brings the Exynos chipsets back to its flagship lineup. Reports suggest that the Galaxy S26 and S26+ will ship with the Exynos 2600 chipset in many markets across the globe.

Where Qualcomm variants are shipped, the devices are likely to utilize the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, the company's latest premium mobile chipset. Purported Samsung Exynos 2600 GPU scores show that it may outclass the Snapdragon in this department.

Exynos 2600 could deliver substantial graphics performance bump​


As highlighted on X, the Exynos 2600's GPU is consistently posting OpenCL scores at the 25,000 level in Geekbench tests. As earlier tests have shown, even the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 can wobble when trying to achieve consistency at a similar level.

There's reason enough to be skeptical about benchmark results these days, particularly as result spoofing becomes common. However, there has been the expectation that the Exynos 2600 GPU could be special.

It was recently revealed that this is the first mobile chipset to use a GPU based on AMD's RDNA4 architecture. That, coupled with the improvements Samsung has made on the thermal management side, could ultimately enable the Exynos 2600 to deliver sustained peak performance for the GPU even under intense loads.

That being said, the true mettle will only be proven once the device is tested in real world conditions and compared with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. It's only a matter of time until we have the Galaxy S26 units in our hands to see how true these claims actually are.
