In certain markets, Samsung could use the Exynos 2600, a new flagship processor for mobile devices, in its upcoming non-foldable flagship smartphone range, the Galaxy S26 series. The performance of the CPU and GPU has previously been revealed by SoC leaks.
But because the chipset was still being developed, the CPU benchmark that we previously saw wasn’t particularly outstanding. We now have the Exynos 2600 as a new CPU benchmark. This one demonstrates its far better performance, surpassing even the Snapdragon 8 Elite from Qualcomm.
Samsung’s forthcoming Exynos chip has been seen on Geekbench with a new benchmark listing (via @Jukanlosreve). As you can see in the screenshot below, the chipset received 3,309 points in the single-core CPU test and 11,256 points in the multi-core CPU test.

In contrast, the Snapdragon 8 Elite in the Galaxy S25 received 2,900 points for its single core and 9,300 points for its multi-core. On the other hand, the Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy Z Flip 7 received about 8,100 points in the multi-core test and 2,500 points in the single-core trial.
To put it another way, the CPU of the Exynos 2600 is 13% to 17% quicker than the Snapdragon 8 Elite and 32% to 38% faster than the Exynos 2500.
