Samsung is rumored to launch the Galaxy S23 series in February 2023 and it seems like they will all be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chipsets. This comes after the latest financial report from Qualcomm where they revealed a bit about the S23 series.

Qualcomm CFO Akash Palkhiwala stated that they had a strong second half of March 2023 that will come alongside the Samsung Galaxy S23 series sales. The CFO also said that they have increased the share of chipsets from 75% to a global share which is a strong indicator that S23 devices will come with Qualcomm chips.
“So from a March quarter perspective, you’re right, the benefit from the Samsung launch for the new phone would be in the in kind of the second half of the March quarter. So it comes in towards the end of the quarter, but that will be an advantage, whereas our share from 75% in G S22 goes up to global share in G S23.”

Furthermore, Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon said that the company has a multiyear partnership with Samsung.
“In handsets, we entered into a new multiyear agreement with Samsung, expanding the use of Snapdragon platforms for future premium Samsung Galaxy products globally.“

However, earlier reports still suggest that we cannot rule out Exynos-powered S23 units. So for now we can only wait for the launch and see what chipsets are going to power these premium devices.
