August 08, 2025
Update: July 18, 2025 (1 AM ET): According to tipsterIce Universe, we now have an indication of when Samsung and AMD could announce its joint chipset effort. Initially rumored to debut later this month, the Samsung Exynos with AMD GPU “has been postponed to July.”
Ice Universe’s record isn’t spotless so take this leak with the necessary sprinkle of salt. Samsung has yet to issue a confirmed debut date for its AMD collaboration.
Original article: June 11, 2025 (12:37 AM ET): Back in 2019, Samsungpartnered with AMDto bring next-gen GPU architecture to mobile devices. Now, we may finally have a timeframe as to when we’ll see the long-awaited flagship Exynos chipset with an AMD GPU.
During herkeynote addressat the ongoing virtual Computex 2021 conference, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su teased a few additional details about the upcoming Exynos mobile SoC with AMD graphics.
“AMD is partnering with Samsung on its next-generation Exynos SoC, which will feature custom AMD RDNA 2 architecture-based graphics IP that bringsray tracingand variable rate shading capabilities to flagship mobile devices,” AMD noted its Computexpress release.
Dr. Su also announced that Samsung would share more details about the new 5G chipset “later this year.” Given the statement, Samsung may make the follow-up to the Exynos 2100 official within the year. That means we can expect the new AMD-powered silicon to run the Galaxy S series flagships that launch in the first half of 2022.
Samsung had also previouslyconfirmedthat its next flagship Exynos chip, a follow-up to the Exynos 2100, would come with the AMD mobile GPU.

It’s too soon to say if the AMD GPU will bring about a big boost to the Exynos platform. However, graphics performance has always been a weak point for Samsung’s chips and we hope to see an improvement with the new partnership in place.
