Meanwhile, Samsung, in its latest flagship smartphone line up of Galaxy S24, integrates both Qualcomm Snapdragon and Exynos chipsets. While the Galaxy S24  Ultra phones in India come with the Exynos 2400 chipset in India, the same phones are integrated in with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processors in the US, Canada and China markets.

According to the leak, the Galaxy Z series will be ‘Snapdragon Only’, while the Galaxy S Series may completely ditch the Snapdragon soon to become Exynos only. The Galaxy A series on the other hand, might offer Mediatek and Exynos options across markets, according to the post.

Galaxy Z – Snapdragon Only
Galaxy S – Exynos Only
Galaxy A – Mediatek & Exynos
