When asked about the reasoning behind the chipset selection, Choi said Samsung follows a “rigorous process” that weighs factors like performance, power efficiency, and user needs. Regarding future models, such as whether the Exynos 2600 will be used in the next Flip, Choi said Samsung will “consider every option.” On the topic of the potential 25% U.S. tariff on smartphones not manufactured domestically, Choi emphasised Samsung’s global manufacturing flexibility. He said the company operates multiple production facilities across key regions, which gives them the agility to respond to changing trade policies.

Shifting the focus to AI, Choi confirmed that Samsung’s AI vision extends well beyond Google's Gemini. He stated, “Gemini will not be the only AI assistant we’re going to integrate with Galaxy. We’re going to integrate multiple AI assistants and AI agents with this framework that we’ve built…. It could be anything, as long as these AI agents are competitive, and AI agents can provide the best user experience, we are open to any ideas. We are talking to multiple vendors. I think at the time of S26 you’re going to see more. In addition to Gemini, you’re going to see more at the time of S26.” While Choi didn’t confirm specific partners, Perplexity and ChatGPT were name-dropped by the interviewer.
