Samsung, after it collaborated with Qualcomm, stuck with the Snapdragon chipset for its flagship device, especially for the Galaxy Z Fold and Flip devices. It hardly goes with its in-house Exynos chipset. But now it appears that the giants may change their strategy.
Samsung is looking forward to its next-generation foldables, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, which are supposed to debut at the next Galaxy Unpacked event in July 2024. If the reports are to be believed, the Korean giants will ditch the Snapdragon SoC for its in-house Exynos with the forthcoming foldables.
This is being speculated by a post on X shared by a tipster, @Kro_roe, which mentioned the Galaxy Z Flip 6 Spec Sheet, which unveiled that the forthcoming Flip 6 will be powered by a Snapdragon or Exynos chip based on the region. However, apart from this, no detailed information such as SoC model numbers is mentioned. Samsung will use the strategy of using the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or the Exynos 2400 for the sixth generation foldable; it is not crystal clear yet.
Although chipsets based on regions are not new, we have already seen that Samsung powered its recently launched Galaxy S24 with the Exynos 2400 in Europe, Asia, and other major markets, with the Snapdragon variant exclusive to the US.
Apart from the chipset, it is also mentioned in the specs sheet that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will get up to 12GB of RAM based on region and up to 512 GB of internal storage. Following the storage details, battery information is mentioned, which states that this time the Giants will offer long-lasting battery life as compared to their predecessor. Also, the giants are actively working on a 120 Hz external screen, which is still in development.
