Exynos 2600 leaks with even higher prime core speed, and AMD JUNO GPU
The Exynos 2600 has been a big hype for the Samsung Galaxy S26 series, as it’s the world’s first 2nm chip used in a smartphone. Now, a new leak from well-known Samsung tipster Ice Universe gives us what could be the final look at its CPU and GPU configuration.
We’ve already seen early performance hints from Geekbench listings, but this new information suggests Samsung may be squeezing out a bit more power. According to Ice Universe, the Exynos 2600 will stick with a 10-core CPU layout, which aligns with previous leaks.

The change could be on the prime core, which is now said to clock at 3.9GHz. That’s slightly higher than the 3.8GHz speed seen in earlier benchmarks, and while the difference sounds small, it could help Samsung push higher peak performance in demanding tasks.
The rest of the CPU setup looks familiar. The three high-performance cores are expected to run at 3.2GHz, while the six efficiency cores are clocked at 2.75GHz.
On the graphics side, the Exynos 2600 reportedly uses a GPU called AMD JUNO, running at 985MHz. As the name suggests, Samsung continues its partnership with AMD for graphics, which has been a major talking point for recent Exynos chips.
The GPU is said to support OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 3.0, and Vulkan 1.3, covering all the modern graphics APIs needed for high-end gaming and advanced visuals.
Samsung will gatekeep Exynos 2600
If you’re curious about its performance, the chip scored 3,455 points in the single-core test and 11,621 points in the multi-core test in its latest Geekbench sighting. For comparison, our Xiaomi 17 unit powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 reached 3,078 points in single-core and 9,162 points in multi-core.
Even with on-par performance—if not better—Samsung is reportedly planning to use the Exynos 2600 exclusively in the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Plus for the Korean market. The rest of the world is expected to get models powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.
