Samsung's Plan B: Even Better?
- Samsung plans to launch the Galaxy S25 FE between September and November 2025 as an affordable variant in the Fan Edition lineup.
- This plan follows production issues with Samsung Foundry’s Exynos 2400e chip, which was originally intended to power the S25 FE.
- As a backup, Samsung considers using MediaTek's Dimensity 9400 chipset, which offers higher performance and better power efficiency than the Exynos 2400e.
- The Dimensity 9400 provides a 35% single-core performance boost and 40% improved power efficiency, but may raise manufacturing costs and increase dependency on external suppliers.
- Samsung's first preference remains the Exynos 2400e to maintain cost control and internal revenue, but the potential chip switch could affect the S25 FE’s market appeal and production schedule.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE might get a more exciting chipset after all
Samsung's Galaxy S24 FE was released in October, and we've already heard rumors that the company is working on its successor, the S25 FE. This was initially said to come with the Exynos 2400e chipset, which is the exact same one used in the S24 FE. Needless to say, this might have turned quite a few people off the new device.

Galaxy S25 FE chip might surprise everyone
The Galaxy S25 FE chip might not be what everyone expected—and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Earlier rumors claimed Samsung would reuse the Exynos 2400e from the S24 FE. A solid chip, sure, but not exactly a headline grabber. That would’ve made the S25 FE feel more like a rehash than an upgrade. But now, new reports say Samsung is eyeing something more ambitious: MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400. It’s not official yet, but according to Notebookch…
