Snapdragon and Exynos Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra capture different pictures
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra features Exynos 2200 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, depending on the region. While both the variants have the same performance level on paper, this is not the case at all in reality as camera quality differences have been found in both models.
DxOMark tested the camera of both Snapdragon and Exynos variants and the test reveals that the devices do not capture the same picture quality even after having the same camera hardware. Also, it’s not always the same model that takes the lead, both have their own specialties.

According to the report, Snapdragon performs better in some instances of zoom cropping as the Exynos variant images have more noise and loss of detail. On the other hand, Snapdragon sharpens the image a lot, which leads to artifacts while Exynos’s images look more natural that way and moiré become less of a problem.
In this way, both the phones have their own specialty and it cannot be said which model is better. The test clears that the Snapdragon Galaxy S22 Ultra is slightly superior in capturing stills whereas, the Exynos Galaxy S22 Ultra is better at zoom and video recording.
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra camera
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra equips a 12MP Ultra-Wide Camera with PDAF, a 108 MP Wide Camera with laser autofocus, PDAF, and OIS, a 10MP Periscope Telephoto Camera with PDAF, OIS, and 10x optical zoom capabilities, a 10MP Telephoto Camera with OIS, PDAF, and 3x optical zoom
On the flip side, there’s a 40MP Front Camera that is capable to record 4K videos. While the phone already has such amazing camera capabilities that can beat Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max, Samsung’s Expert RAW app expands these abilities to the pro-grade level.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip FE and Z Flip 7 could pack Exynos 2400e and Exynos 2500
Samsung could pack the Galaxy Z Flip FE and Z Flip 7 with Exynos processors. The company could launch its first affordable foldable phone next year. The device could get a different camera and processor from the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Leaker Jukanlosreve revealed that Samsung could use the Exynos 2400e in the Galaxy Z Flip FE and Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy Z Flip 7. The former Exynos variant powers the Galaxy S24 FE, while the Exynos 2500 is an upcoming product.
Samsung previously intended to use Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy S25 series. However, the chip has a major performance difference from its Snapdragon counterpart. This led the company to solely rely on the Snapdragon 8 Elite for the S25 series.
Exynos 2500 is being manufactured using Samsung Foundry’s 3nm process node. The yield rate is quite low (around 20%), which is far from the production threshold. However, Samsung chose the path to produce the chip at such a low yield rate.
Exynos 2400 has proven to be a decent chip with no frustrating flaws. The Exynos 2400e could be used in the Z Flip FE. The “e” model could be made using IPoP (Integrated Package on Package) tech, which is cheaper than the standard method.
Recently, a Korean media outlet reported that Samsung Foundry has started mass production of a 3nm Exynos 2500 chip. It was initially intended to be used in the S25 and S25 Plus, but issues pushed it towards the second-half debut in the Z Flip 7.
