The yield rate of its own 3nm is terrible: Samsung Galaxy S25 may introduce MediaTek for the first time

There is speculation that Samsung’s new flagship Galaxy S25 series may introduce the MediaTek Dimensity platform for the first time. There are three reasons: First, Samsung’s new 3nm process is too expensive. Although Samsung spent a lot of money and used GAA transistors for the first time, the results were disastrous. The yield rate of manufacturing its own Exynos 2500 processor was less than 20%, which was simply unsatisfactory. The second is to prevent Qualcomm from becoming a dominant player. It is said that the price of the next generation Snapdragon 8 Gen4 will increase by 25-30% to US$240-260. If the Galaxy S25 series only uses it, the cost pressure will be very high. Third, MediaTek Dimensity has made rapid progress in recent years and is not inferior to Qualcomm Snapdragon in all aspects. Various leaks about the next-generation Dimensity 9400 are also gratifying. In fact, it is not that Samsung has never used MediaTek processors, but in the past they were low-end products and have never been used in flagship phones. However, Korean media said that Samsung has not given up on the 3nm process and Exynos 2500, and is still working hard to improve it, especially since the Galaxy S25 series is still early, so it may be too late. Of course, even if this happens, the supply won't be too large, at least not initially.
