Samsung Boosts Exynos 2600 Ahead of Galaxy S26 as Unverified Exynos 2700 Leak Emerges

Updated results compiled by The Elec show higher CPU clocks alongside stronger Vulkan scores heading into Galaxy Unpacked.

Overview

  • New testing reported by Wccftech from The Elec’s data shows the Exynos 2600’s Xclipse 960 GPU up about 8% overall in Geekbench 6 Vulkan, with a 61% jump in the Particle Physics subtest and 51% in Edge Detection.
  • The Elec’s compilation also indicates roughly a 12% increase in CPU clock speeds, translating to better single‑core and multi‑core performance before devices ship.
  • Compared with earlier figures, the Exynos 2600’s Vulkan gap to Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 narrows from 21% to about 12%, according to the updated scores.
  • Separate reporting highlights that Galaxy S26 models in some regions are expected to use the Exynos 2600, with full launch benchmarks likely to follow at or after Galaxy Unpacked.
  • A low‑track‑record leak claims the successor Exynos 2700 will move to Samsung’s SF2P 2nm node with a 4.2 GHz prime core, new packaging for better thermals, and LPDDR6/UFS 5.0 support, but these details remain unconfirmed.
