The Galaxy S27 Ultra could use an Exynos processor for the first time since 2022

According to a report from Digital Trends, Samsung may be preparing to reintroduce its own Exynos processor to the Galaxy S Ultra for the first time since 2022. MoneyToday, a Korean publication, claims that the company is developing an Exynos 2700 version of the Galaxy S27 Ultra, which would replace the Qualcomm Snapdragon chip that has been used in recent models.

The report cites an insider stating that the move suggests high expectations for the Exynos chip, and that Samsung has ordered motherboards designed around the Exynos 2700. While the report's claims are based on early estimates and not independently verified results, a stronger performance advantage and lower power consumption are expected from the Exynos 2700.

The report also notes that Qualcomm-powered models are still in development, with the United States expected to receive Qualcomm's chip while markets such as Korea could get the Exynos 2700.
