The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra might use an Exynos chipset, and surprisingly that could be a good thing

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Review.
  • The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra could use an Exynos 2600 chipset in at least some regions
  • This would be the first time since the S22 Ultra that a Snapdragon chipset wasn't used
  • But reports suggest the Exynos 2600 could actually be even better than the latest Snapdragon and Apple chipsets

Most years, Samsung will use a mix of chipsets in its Galaxy S-series handsets, with you getting either an in-house Exynos chipset or a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip depending on the phone you choose and where in the world you are. But in recent years, the Ultra models have always used Snapdragon. That might not be the case with the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra though.
