Leaked Exynos 2600 Benchmarks Claim M5-Class Single-Core and Sharper Power Efficiency

Screenshots from engineering samples later disappeared from public databases, leaving the results unverified.

Overview

  • An X post citing a Geekbench 6 run reports the Exynos 2600 at 4,217 single‑core and 13,482 multi‑core, with outlets noting its single‑core result approaches Apple’s M5.
  • A separate report cites internal Geekbench testing at 3,960 single‑core and 12,121 multi‑core with slightly higher clocks, though these results are not publicly listed.
  • Leaked power figures from a prototype list 7.6W board power in multi‑core versus 12.1W for Apple’s A19 Pro, indicating a sizable efficiency advantage in that test.
  • Coverage attributes the efficiency claims to Samsung’s 2nm GAA process, with the CPU described in leaks as a 1+3+6 design peaking up to about 4.20GHz on the prime core.
  • Reports continue to flag engineering‑sample provenance and note constrained early 2nm yields around 50%, suggesting the chip may see regional use in the Galaxy S26 lineup rather than a full swap from Qualcomm.
