Samsung is taking steps forward to mass production by 2025 and is building a new 2nm fabrication process named SF2.
The Korean giant is now actively working on developing a new 2nm chip manufacturing process and is expected to use this latest technology for the brand’s next-generation Exynos 2600 chipset, which will be supposed to power the Galaxy S26 smartphones. A new report reported that Samsung has started building a chipset with the codename ‘Thetis.’
The report claims that the giant is expected to start mass-producing this SoC on the 2nm fabrication process in 2025 and is about to debut this next-generation processor as the Exynos 2600. However, ‘Thetis’ is a term that belongs to Greek mythology; she appears in various roles; for instance, sea sprite, goddess of water, and one of the fifty Nereids, who are daughters of the ancient sea god Nereus.
Previously, the report revealed that the Exynos 2600 will feature an in-house-developed GPU instead of one based on AMD’s RDNA architecture, similar to that housed in the Exynos 2400. We are expecting that Samsung will debut the Galaxy S26 series in early 2026. Apple should introduce the iPhone 17 series, which is claimed to use a 2nm chipset built by TSMC, next year in September.
This means that Samsung will be the second company to launch a smartphone based on a 2 nm chipset. Currently, there’s a lack of enough details regarding Exynos 2600, but it is expected that soon more information will arrive.
