Description:
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 has been benchmarked with an Exynos 2500 chipset and 12GB of RAM, and its scores are surprisingly low.

FULL STORY ======================================================================The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 has been benchmarked ahead of release The scores are very low for a high-end phone The clock speeds are also surprisingly low

If you were expecting flagship performance from Samsungs next foldable flip phone then you might be in for a shock, as an early Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 benchmark suggests this wont be troubling the Samsung Galaxy S25 series or other high-end phones.

Shared by leaker Abhishek Yadav on X (via GSMArena ), the reported benchmark shows the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 using an Exynos 2500 chipset and with 12GB of RAM.

There has been some disagreement over which chipset the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 would use while most sources pointed to this Exynos option, some others
had suggested a Snapdragon 8 Elite might be used instead.

So this benchmark is more evidence that well be getting Exynos, and as the model number here is for a US version of the phone, well presumably see the Exynos 2500 chipset used globally (since when Samsung uses different chipsets in different regions, the US typically gets Snapdragon).

In any case, that could be bad news, because the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7s single-core score of 2,012 and multi-core result of 7,563 are basically a generation behind what were seeing from the Snapdragon 8 Elite which is the chipset used by most high-end Android phones this year.

Interestingly, as GSMArena notes, the cores here have much lower clock speeds than rival chipsets, which is likely a factor in the poor performance. Its
not clear whether these speeds are the standard for this chipset which hasnt yet appeared in any available phones or whether Samsung has reduced the speeds for the Z Flip 7 to avoid heat build-up.

Since this is an early benchmark its also possible that the released model will have higher clock speeds, and even if it doesnt, further optimizations ahead of release could lead to improved results. But right now, going by this one benchmark anyway, it doesnt look like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 will impress when it comes to power.

We should find out for sure in July, as thats when Samsung will most likely unveil this phone probably alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 , which thankfully is expected to launch with the Snapdragon 8 Elite instead.
