According to Pocket-lint reports, reliable sources revealed to, Samsung may consider the future of several mobile phones to re-use its own Exynos chip, including the Galaxy S23 FE and some regions of the Galaxy S24 series.
Samsung’s Galaxy S23 series comes with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chip, which has a higher clock frequency and performance advantage over the regular Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 platform.
Samsung will reportedly launch the Galaxy S23 FE in the second half of 2023, which will follow the S20 FE as a “fan edition” phone designed to satisfy some of its loyal users. However, the phone will be powered by Samsung’s own Exynos chip, rather than a Snapdragon chip.
The source also revealed that Samsung is now planning to return to the Exynos chip in the Galaxy S24 series, which will be released in 2024, which means that Samsung’s partnership with Qualcomm may only be short-lived. However, the sources say that the Galaxy S24 series for the US market may still use Snapdragon chips, while the European market may use Exynos chips.
Samsung has used this regional differentiation strategy before, giving the European market an Exynos version of its phones and other markets like China and the US a Snapdragon version.
