Galaxy S25 likely switching memory chip suppliers later in the year, should you be worried?

Samsung had a rocky 2024: Samsung Foundry faced a multitude of issues when it came to yield results. However the company says that it has now stabilized its 3 nm manufacturing process and work on 2 nm and 1.4 nm chips is still under way. Though the Galaxy S25 series had to abandon Samsung’s chipsets because of aforementioned problems, insider reports indicate that the Exynos 2500 will debut soon in the Z series phones.So should you worry about the Galaxy S25 phones shifting back to Samsung’s own memory chips later? In my opinion, probably not. Yes, there’s a chance that some heating issues may linger but the differences in Micron chips and Samsung’s own chips should be so minor that it will be unnoticeable.

Samsung recognized when its Exynos chipsets just weren’t going to cut it and I think it will do the same for memory chips. The differences between Galaxy S25 phones using Micron chips versus Samsung’s own chips will be much less apparent than the differences between Snapdragon and Exynos chipsets in the past.

Samsung may be fashionably late to chip improvements but that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t make some good ones. There’s a reason why the Galaxy phones are some of the best phones worth buying today.
