Recent reports claimed that Samsung will equip at least some Galaxy S26 models with the in-house Exynos 2600 chip. However, most reports mentioned that the chip will only be used in the Galaxy S26 Pro and the Galaxy S26 Edge, depending on the country. Now, a new report claims that the chip will also be used in the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Could it be true?

Korea Herald's report claims that Samsung will start mass producing the Exynos 2600 this month and that it will be used in the Galaxy S26 series. This information aligns with previous reports about the Exynos 2600 powering the Galaxy S26 Pro and the Galaxy S26 Edge. However, in the new report, Daishin Securities analyst Park Kang-ho claims that the chip will also be used in the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
If this is true, it would be the first time in four years that a Galaxy S Ultra model would use an Exynos chipset. Here's a list of previous Galaxy S Ultra phones and their processors:
We think this is just a mistranslation or the analyst misspoke, as we haven't seen any sign of a variant of the Galaxy S26 Ultra with the Exynos 2600 chip. It is likely that the flagship phone will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chip worldwide, following Samsung's track record for the past three years.
If the Exynos 2600 is launched early next year, it would be the world's first 2nm smartphone chip. It is fabricated on Samsung Foundry's 2nm process node. While MediaTek has announced that it has taped out a flagship chip based on TSMC's 2nm process node, it won't be launched before the fourth quarter of next year.
