Samsung is getting ready to launch its new foldable phones – the Galaxy Z Flip7 and Fold7 – in early July. There has been some confusion about which processor the Flip7 will use, but a new report now says it’s likely to feature the Exynos 2500 chip.

This is big news because the Exynos 2500 was originally planned for the upcoming Galaxy S25 series. However, Samsung faced problems producing enough of these chips, so it had to switch to the Snapdragon 8 Elite for the S25 lineup.

Now it seems those production issues have been solved, or Samsung is okay with using the Exynos chip in the Flip7 since it will likely sell in smaller numbers compared to the S-series phones.

If the rumor is true, the Galaxy Z Flip7 will be the first Samsung foldable to use an Exynos processor. The report says the Exynos 2500 will be used in most regions, including India and South Korea, while the Snapdragon 8 Elite might only be used in China and North America.

The Exynos 2500 is a powerful chip with ten CPU cores, including:

• 1 Cortex-X925 core (up to 3.3 GHz)
• 2 Cortex-A725 cores (up to 2.75 GHz)
• 5 Cortex-A725 cores (up to 2.36 GHz)
• 2 Cortex-A520 cores (up to 1.8 GHz)

It also comes with a new Xclipse 950 GPU, built using AMD’s latest RDNA 3.5 technology.

While this is still based on leaks, it’s exciting to see Samsung bring its Exynos chips back into the spotlight—especially in a foldable phone.

New leaks have revealed more details about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 FE, and so far, the changes look minor. A report also suggested that the selfie camera would be upgraded and that the phone would keep the same 50 MP main rear camera as last year’s model, the S24 FE.

Now, new information has surfaced about the telephoto and ultrawide cameras—and it’s not great news. The telephoto camera will still be an 8 MP sensor with 3x optical zoom, just like the one on the S24 FE.

Many people expected better, especially for a phone in this price range launching in 2025. Still, it’s worth noting that the S25 FE at least has a dedicated telephoto lens, unlike the S25 Edge, which reportedly doesn’t include one at all.

The ultrawide camera will also stay the same—a 12 MP sensor, again similar to the S24 FE. So, if the leaks are accurate, the only noticeable camera improvement in the S25 FE will be on the front-facing selfie camera.

In terms of performance, the S25 FE is expected to feature a slightly better processor. Instead of the Exynos 2400e found in the S24 FE, it will use the full version of the Exynos 2400.

So far, the Galaxy S25 FE seems to be a very small upgrade over its predecessor. The main rear camera, ultrawide, and telephoto lenses are all expected to remain the same. The only real upgrades could be the selfie camera and a slightly better chipset. Whether Samsung has more surprises in store remains to be seen.

Samsung is working on a new feature for its Galaxy AI called “image-to-video generation,” according to a tipster on X (formerly Twitter). The tipster did not share many details but said the feature will let users create videos from images using AI.

This news comes soon after Google announced its advanced video generation tool powered by its Gemini AI. Since Samsung and Google often work together—and Gemini is already the default virtual assistant on Galaxy phones—it’s possible Samsung will use Google’s AI technology for this new feature.

However, Samsung might not be the first to offer this. Honor is preparing to launch a similar feature in its upcoming Honor 400 series. This feature will also use Google’s AI and will be free for the first two months. After that, users will have to pay a subscription fee.

It is possible that Samsung will release its image-to-video feature with the upcoming One UI 8.0 update, and it might also require a paid subscription later. But for now, this is only a rumor and nothing has been officially confirmed by Samsung.
