The Exynos 2600 is listed on Geekbench as the “S5E9965” and features a deca-core setup with six cores running at 2.76 GHz, three cores at 3.26 GHz, and a prime core at 3.80 GHz. All of those are higher frequencies than the flagship chipset was listed with when it first debuted on the benchmark.
Performance-wise, the Exynos 2600 impresses on this run. The chipset earns a single-core score of 3,309, which is slightly higher than any Snapdragon 8 Elite device has recorded in our tests, and about 10% than the Qualcomm SoC delivers on average overall. Multi-core performance is even better here, as the Exynos 2600 scores a hefty 11,256—20% higher than the average Snapdragon 8 Elite phone manages.
While it’s unclear how these numbers would fare when stacked against Qualcomm’s next-gen chipset, they represent a superb 45% jump in performance compared to the disappointing Exynos 2500, and that is likely to thrill Exynos fans.
