Samsung’s rumored Exynos 2700 has shown up again, this time in what South Korean outlets say are internal Galaxy S27 benchmark results. If those numbers are real, Samsung’s next chip is beating Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 lineup.
The reports put the Exynos 2700 at roughly 13,000 in Geekbench 6.5 multi-core, compared with about 11,000 for Qualcomm. In Geekbench 7.0, it’s said to land around 15% ahead of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6.
Against the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, the gap looks even wider. The same reports claim leads of about 44% and 36%, along with roughly 20% higher peak GPU performance, around 5% better 3D gaming, and a GPU that remains more than 20% faster at 2.5W.
That kind of jump could be coming from the CPU setup: a 10-core design with 2 C2-Ultra cores and 8 C2-Pro cores, versus Qualcomm’s 8-core approach.
Still, a lot is missing. There’s no single-core data, no stress-test data, nothing on sustained performance, thermals, or battery life. Qualcomm has often had the edge in single-core, and Exynos still carries old questions around efficiency and throttling. Separate claims about Qualcomm overheating were also denied. On top of that, neither Samsung nor Qualcomm has confirmed any of these reported internal Samsung figures.
So if you’re following the Galaxy S27, this is a leak to watch, not something to treat as settled.
The same South Korean reports say the Exynos 2700 is being built on Samsung’s second-generation 2nm SF2P process, with claims of 12% more performance and 25% lower power use. That would fit Samsung’s broader push to depend less on Qualcomm, cut costs, and pull hardware and software closer together. Current talk points to the Galaxy S27 and Galaxy S27 Plus using Exynos globally, while the Galaxy S27 Ultra still looks more likely to stick with Snapdragon.
For now, you’ll have to wait until the Galaxy S27 lineup actually arrives.
