The speculation has been widespread. Some suggest that the Exynos 2600 application processor (AP), produced by Samsung Foundry using its 2nm GAA technology, will be the driving force behind the majority of the Samsung Galaxy S26 models, including the Galaxy S26 Ultra in certain regions. Previously, Samsung Foundry encountered challenges with the yield of its 3nm production, resulting in a shortage of Exynos 2500 APs for the Galaxy S25 series. The standard Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra models are all equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor. This marks a shift from previous models, such as the Galaxy S24 series, which used both Snapdragon and Samsung's own Exynos chipsets, depending on the region. While during Qualcomm's recent earnings call following the release of its fiscal Q4 earnings, the company said that it expected its new Snapdragon chip to be found in 75 percent of the Galaxy S26 handsets. Qualcomm said that it used to expect to get 50 pe...

A RECAP ABOUT ANDROID 14 FEATURES:
The Android 14 update includes Samsung's One UI 6.0 and features significant improvements in customization, privacy, performance, and accessibility. Enhanced customization New lock screen options: A new lock screen customization picker makes it easier to change clock faces, fonts, colors, and shortcuts. You can also set custom lock screen shortcuts for your most-used controls. More wallpaper and theme options: You can create custom wallpapers using AI (on some devices), and the system's "Material You" theming has more precise color-matching and a new monochromatic theme for a sleek look.
Intuitive Flex Window: For your outer cover screen, the update adds a wider variety of widgets, video wallpapers, and clock faces for more personalization. Improved privacy and security Enhanced PIN security: The system recommends a more secure 6-digit PIN. With a PIN of six digits or more, you can enable automatic unlocking after entering the correct code. You can also turn off the on-screen animations that appear when entering your PIN to thwart "shoulder surfers". Better app data control: Android 14 provides more information about how apps use and share your data, making it easier to make informed decisions about granting permissions. It also offers a "selective media access" feature, allowing you to grant an app access to only specific photos and videos.
Health Connect integration: The Health Connect feature is now built directly into the settings menu, providing a centralized and encrypted hub for all your health and fitness data from various apps. Protection against old malware: To combat malware that targets older Android versions, the update blocks the installation of apps designed for versions below Android 6.0. Better performance and battery life Optimized system performance: Under-the-hood improvements to the Android Runtime (ART) and memory management make devices run faster and more efficiently. Background processes are managed better, and animations are smoother.
Increased battery efficiency: The update includes power-saving optimizations that result in improved battery life, especially when the device is idle. Expanded accessibility Increased font size: Users with low vision can scale the system font size up to 200% (from 130% in Android 13) and use a new nonlinear font scaling feature that prevents larger text elements from becoming disproportionately huge.
Flash notifications: You can now enable "Flash notifications" in the settings, which uses the camera flash or screen to flash when a notification comes in. This is a helpful visual alert for those with hearing impairments. Enhanced magnifier: The improved magnifier feature has more intuitive controls and can be kept on while switching between apps.
