In the earlier part of the year, Qualcomm and Samsung collaborated to create a customized version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor exclusively for the Samsung Galaxy S23 series. This partnership appears to be continuing, potentially leading to similar arrangements for flagship Android phones in 2024.
Speculation has surrounded the choice of chipset for the Samsung Galaxy S24 series, with rumors suggesting that Samsung may revert to its previous approach of using its own Exynos processors in some versions of the phone. The Galaxy S23 series, in contrast, utilized Snapdragon processors in all three models.
