We've heard previous chatter that the Galaxy S25 prices could be going up when Samsung releases its Galaxy S24 successor early next year. Now we've got a bead on just how much Galaxy S25 production costs could be rising.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo expects the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset likely to power next year's flagship to be a very expensive piece of silicon. In a post on Medium that was spotted by Phone Arena, Kuo thinks the new system-on-chip is going to be priced 25% to 30% higher than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset that powers all Galaxy S24 Ultra models and the Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus phones that ship in North America.
