Samsung might end up expanding the Exynos 2700 chip to the Galaxy S27 Ultra next year. The company’s Mobile Business might be forced to end Snapdragon exclusivity from the top-tier flagship and expand in-house chipsets.

MX Division has a history of splitting Galaxy S chip supply between Exynos and Snapdragon. However, the widening gap between Exynos and Snapdragon has led the Galaxy S Ultra model to avoid the utilization of the in-house chip.

Samsung has significantly expanded Snapdragon in the Galaxy S22 series. The Galaxy S23 Ultra was the first to ship with Snapdragon globally. Since then, Qualcomm has been keeping the supply of the S Ultra model’s processor.

Galaxy S26 and S26+ launched with Exynos 2600, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra uses Snapdragon worldwide. Samsung is widely expected to keep the strategy unchanged and bring the Snapdragon-powered Galaxy S27 Ultra.

System LSI wants Exynos in next Galaxy S Ultra

Meanwhile, a new report from DigiTimes reveals an internal battle inside the Samsung group. The company’s System LSI Division is reportedly pressuring the mobile division to widen the use of Exynos 2700 processor.

System LSI wants Exynos 2700 to power the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy S27 Ultra. Utilization in the Fold 8 is difficult now as the phone is on the verge of unveiling. Meanwhile, it can be considered for the Galaxy S27 Ultra.

Samsung’s System LSI designs Exynos chips, and Samsung Foundry handles the manufacturing work. The desire for the Galaxy S27 Ultra is driven by the sales stats of the model, which alone sells higher than the others combined.

Well, the ball is in the MX Division’s court on whether to use Exynos in S27 Ultra. It will be Samsung’s second in-house chip built on a 2nm process.
