Samsung's next-gen flagship chipset, the Exynos 2600, has surfaced on Geekbench yet again. The SOC is expected to be present in the Galaxy S26 lineup next year, and appears to deliver CPU performance on par with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.

Samsung is widely expected to equip its Galaxy S26 series with the Exynos 2600. That chipset has surfaced on Geekbench several times over the past few months—with a wide spread of results—and has now been spotted on the benchmark platform yet again.

This time, the Exynos 2600 performs on par with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and Dimensity 9500, although it must be noted that it was tested aboard a reference design unit. The chipset earns a single-core score of 3,455, and a multi-core score of 11,621. Both of those are significant improvements on the chipset's last Geekbench run, and are comparable to the scores of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered iQOO 15.

This listing has the Exynos 2600 with what appears to be its final core configuration: six efficiency cores running at 2.76 GHz, three cores at 3.26 GHz, and a prime core at 3.80 GHz. While Exynos chipsets over the past few generations have typically lagged behind their Qualcomm rivals, the Exynos 2600 looks geared to be different affair.
