TL;DR
- A Korean outlet reports that regions like Korea and Europe will get the Galaxy Z Flip 8 with an Exynos 2600 chip.
- The phone will presumably ship with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip in markets like the US and China.
- A source also claims that Samsung will expand its use of Exynos chips with new products launching next year.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 was the first Galaxy foldable powered by an Exynos chipset. However, the Galaxy Z Flip 8 is tipped to offer both Exynos and Snapdragon chips, depending on the region. Now, a news outlet may have given us a better idea of what to expect.
The Bell reports that “select” regions such as Korea and Europe will get the Galaxy Z Flip 8 with the Exynos 2600 processor. This isn’t a big surprise, as Korea and Europe typically get the Exynos version whenever Samsung offers a flagship Galaxy phone with both Exynos and Snapdragon chips. Meanwhile, North America and China usually get the Snapdragon variant.
