Supposedly the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 plus will launch in the global market with a new exynos chip. Whilst ONLY the Galaxy s24 Ultra will get the snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip.

If this is true, then it’s a complete deal breaker as I’m a base version/plus version kinda guy, the ultra is too big for me and I don’t use the S pen. We gave Samsung 3 shots to prove themselves with the exynos chips and all 3 times they failed. I don’t have high hopes for another exynos coming. Even if it has good performance then what about battery efficiency? Cameras? Heat optimization…etc etc.

Why only North America gets snapdragon? Do the rest of the world not deserve the superior chip? Or are we test dummies for Samsung to see what works and what doesn’t and NA is their real target audience?

    Both exynos and snapdragon SoCs are manufactured by Samsung(except for this latest gen, maybe). I don’t get why people dislike exynos… The difference is so minute, and the “temperature” is only a handful of degrees different in similar use cases. 99.9999% of devices will perform the same.

    And battery usage difference is not what it used to be a couple of years ago. Just because some dumb YouTubers say it’s bad because they gotta criticize something, doesn’t mean it’s that bad.

      We refuse to pay the same amount of money for an inferior product. If they want to sell us Exynos, they should lower the price in accordance to performance loss over the snapdragon variant. I would not pay the same money for an Exynos version on principle alone, and I don’t take it kindly from Samsung attempting to rip me off.

      Good job admitting you have no idea what you’re talking about since you’re also wrong about everything else
