Samsung could use the Exynos 2400 processor inside the affordable Galaxy Z Flip variant to keep the cost down and differentiate the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE from the Galaxy Z Flip7.
Notably, the Exynos 2400 is the same processor powering the Galaxy S24 and S24+ in some regions. It is a flagship processor capable of running Samsung"s Galaxy AI features. If the processor is used inside the rumored Galaxy Z Flip7 FE, it could bring advanced AI capabilities to the clamshell foldable at a more accessible price point.
For now, Samsung has the Galaxy S25 series in the pipeline, which is expected to feature a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor across the board. It is also rumored that during the Unpacked event, Samsung could introduce the much-speculated Galaxy S25 Slim model.
