Rumor has it that Qualcomm is charging $190 for each of the Snapdragon 8 Elite. This could lead to higher prices for the Samsung Galaxy S25. The Galaxy S25 series is planned to be introduced at the Galaxy Unpacked event on January 22, and there are three models in the series: Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra.
According to insider information, Samsung is abandoning the Exynos 2500 chipset in all three models due to the low performance of its own product and prefers Snapdragon 8 Elite.
“The previous practice was to use Qualcomm chipsets for certain regions and Exynos SoC for others. However, this time it seems that there will be a deviation from this strategy. “Perhaps the price increase may be due to the use of new processor manufacturing technology and an increase in the cost of development,” insiders emphasize.
