Samsung's Q2 2024 performance report confirms it is working on the Exynos 2500 and even calls it by name. An X leaker says the company has overcome the chip's initial yield issues and that it will debut without any problems.

Renowned industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo heard from sources in the supply chain that Samsung could scrap the Exynos 2500 due to poor yields; a claim Samsung vehemently denied. While Samsung does plan to use a MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ on its tablets, smartphones will continue to use Exynos on the Galaxy S25 series, maybe even all versions. The company just called the Exynos 2500 by name in its latest earnings report (machine translated form Korean):

System LSI plans to focus its business division capabilities on the stable supply of Exynos 2500 for flagship products.

 Companies usually don't call unreleased products by name, let alone mention them in an earnings report. This suggests Samsung is confident about the Exynos 2500 and its second-gen 3GAP node in general. The report further adds Samsung is pleased with how the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra's 3 nm Exynos W1000 SoC was received and will continue to work developing more products in that category.

X user Mapple_Gold who specializes in semiconductors says Samsung has overcome the Exynos 2500's yield issues and that it will "debut without any problems". Furthermore, Samsung has multiple Exynos 2500 variants lined up multiple CPU configurations (1+2+3+4, 2+2+2+4, and 1+4+5). This suggests Samsung has plans to expand Exynos into other products such as laptops and tablets.
