Samsung’s Exynos-powered phones haven’t had the best reputation when it comes to standby power consumption – their modems tend to use more battery than the modems inside Snapdragon-powered Galaxy phones. But Samsung LSI may have finally cracked the problem.

The M2700 modem, which will be used alongside the Exynos 2700 chipset in some Galaxy S27 models, promises better power efficiency, according to insiders who spoke to The Elec. “I understand that the M2700 achieved performance equivalent to or better than competitors’ products through voltage adjustment and other measures,” said one…

Samsung improves the power efficiency of the Exynos modems for the Galaxy S27 phones. This is interesting because the M2700 is fabbed on the same 4nm Samsung node as the modem inside the Exynos 2600-powered Galaxy S26 models.

That modem is called Exynos Modem 5410, but note that Samsung is reportedly moving away from that branding and adopting M-series naming for its future modems. Anyway, despite being on the same node, the M2700 will be more power efficient and an optical die shrink allowed Samsung to reduce the chip area by 4%.

The new modem comes with new capabilities too – it upgrades from 3GPP Release 17 to Release 18 and improves the Non-Terrestrial Network capabilities (these are used for satellite communication).
