Exynos 2500: Early Galaxy Z Flip7 hands-on CPU benchmarks indicate disappointing performance
Samsung presented the Galaxy Z Flip7 days ago alongside the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 FE. Unlike the larger foldable, the Galaxy Z Flip7 is powered by Samsung's own Exynos 2500 and appears to suffer in performance as a result.
As shared by Fenibook on X, the Exynos 2500 struggles to keep up with current-gen flagship chipsets in CPU performance. The chipset aboard the Galaxy Z Flip7 achieves a single-core score of 2,093 on Geekbench 6 and a multi-core score of 7,498.
Those numbers are consistent with pre-launch Geekbench listings of the phone, and showcase performance on par with last-gen chipsets. The MediaTek Dimensity 9300, for example, scored 2,207 and 7,408 on Geekbench 6 aboard the Vivo X100 Pro in our tests. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro performs similarly too, with a single-core score of 2,318 and a multi-score of 7,357.
Evidently, the Exynos 2500 does not deliver performance on par with its rivals from Apple, Qualcomm, and MediaTek. Not on the CPU end at least. The chipset's Xclipse 950 GPU is expected to be more of a match for the Snapdragon 8 Elite's Adreno 830, however.
