Recently, Korean media disclosed that Samsung's Exynos 2500 chip has a yield rate of only 20% due to yield problems, which is far from reaching the baseline for mass production, so it is widely speculated in the industry that Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S25 series mobile phones may use MediaTek's customized chips for the first time.

At the same time, due to the tight supply of TSMC's 3nm process, the price of Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen4 processor has soared by 25%, and the price is expected to exceed $250, compared to MediaTek's chips, which are more competitive. However, there is also the latest news that Samsung has set a minimum mass production deadline for the Exynos 2500 at the end of this year, which means that Samsung still has a chance to improve chip yield in the coming period. If the yield rate can be increased to more than 60%, it is still possible for Samsung Galaxy S25 series phones to use the Exynos 2500 chip.
