Despite the recent launch of the Exynos 2500, a device powered allegedly by the Exynos 2600 was spotted on both 3DMark and Geekbench, revealing its performance.
Exynos 2600 – Geekbench and 3DMark
The devices in both listings were under the model number S6E9965, and it is expected to be either an engineering unit or a test bench to showcase the chipset.

On Geekbench, it scored 2155 and 7788 in the single-core and multi-core tests, respectively. Meanwhile, the same device scored 3135 in 3D Mark’s Nomad Light benchmark.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy on the Galaxy Z Fold7 scored 2910 in single-core and 9152 in multi-core. While Samsung’s next-generation flagship chipset looks to have alarmingly low performance, it’s good to remember that the alleged chipset is still in development. Not to mention, Samsung might still be tweaking the clock speeds.

The listing also reveals other details like the core configuration, which in this case is a 1+3+6 with a prime core clocked at 3.55 GHz. This is joined by three performance cores at 2.96 GHz and six efficiency cores at 2.56GHz.
Moreover, the device runs on Android 16 and has an Xclipse 960 GPU. The GPU, based on the 3DMark test shared by X/Twitter user Jukanlosreve, shows about 15% better performance compared to the Snapdragon 8 Elite. This performance, though, could be running on a test bench, which could result in better cooling.
Keep in mind, though, that the Exynos 2500 was the chipset that powers the recently announced Galaxy Z Flip7. It could be very early in the life cycle of the Exynos 2600 still.
