The Galaxy Z Flip 8 has once again attracted attention on rumor sites and now a source has indicated that the Exynos 2600 processor will be adopted in a limited number of markets.
This approach differs from what was seen in previous reports, which pointed to a division similar to that applied to the Galaxy S family.
According to information from The Bell, the Galaxy Z Flip 8 will only receive the Exynos 2600 in Europe, which includes the United Kingdom, and South Korea.
In practice, buyers in the Americas, including Brazil, in addition to Australia, most of Asia and the Middle East should receive the version with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy.
People with internal knowledge of Samsung say that the choice aims to maintain the company’s profit margin amid rising component costs, especially memory chips.
Even so, it is worth highlighting that this is yet another rumor in the sector, as Samsung does not officially comment on this type of information.
