Samsung's Exynos chip brand went through a rough patch after the Exynos 2200 SoC and the Galaxy S22 series were released. Even though the S22 flagship was later optimized, it suffered from a rocky start. Many blamed the Exynos 2200 solution, especially because the select Galaxy S22 models powered by Qualcomm chips were superior. That's […]
Samsung needs to gain the customer's trust back before asking them to pay for a flagship phone powered by an Exynos chip.
MediaTek came out all guns blazing with the Dimensity 9300, its new flagship smartphone processor. Just a few years ago, the Taiwanese chip firm was viewed as a supplier of average low-end and mid-range chips. However, the company has turned around its fortune over the past three years with remarkable determination, and Samsung should learn […]
To say that expectations are high from the Exynos 2400 would be an understatement. This is going to be the comeback for Samsung’s custom silicon after it effectively accepted defeat and went all Snapdragon for the Galaxy S23 series. That decision would not have been made lightly but the criticism that the company faced due […]
So, yes, Exynos is back. It's not a rumor anymore: Samsung has officially unveiled the Exynos 2400 chip as the successor to the Exynos 2200, which powered last year's Galaxy S22 series and also powers the Galaxy S23 FE that launched earlier this week. Samsung has been launching a new flagship Exynos chip every year […]
The Snapdragon vs Exynos debate has gone on long enough. Samsung tried to push its custom chipsets for the longest time but their lack of performance compared to the competing Snapdragon chipsets couldn't be brushed under the carpet. Samsung's flagship phones used to ship with Exynos chipsets in most markets while a select few were […]
As self-proclaimed Samsung fans (and as folks who have spent the years using and writing about its products), we have something of a soft spot for the Korean juggernaut. We've had a lot of positive things to say about Samsung, and we've also had a lot of negative things to say. Still, whenever the company […]
As you may have heard by now, Samsung is most likely developing a new Exynos 2400 chip for the upcoming Galaxy S24 flagship series, which should hit the shelves in Q1 2024. And needless to say, most fans are worried that Samsung will ruin the flagship experience for Galaxy S24 customers in Exynos markets. However, […]
It wouldn't be an overstatement to say that it took Samsung nearly 15 years to finally make an Android flagship that's as fast and smooth as flagship devices should be. The Galaxy S23 series runs incredibly well, so much so that it could become a problem for Samsung going forward and its ability to match […]
For the longest time, Samsung has kept the Exynos and Snapdragon split on its flagship phones. Some markets would get the Snapdragon-powered variants while the vast majority would receive its Exynos processor. There's no need to recount all of the ways the Exynos has consistently lagged behind its Snapdragon counterpart. Countless column inches have already […]
The Galaxy S23 is the first flagship series in many years from Samsung that uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset exclusively. Previous iterations have retained the Exynos/Snapdragon split based on the market. After the longest time, it was a refreshing change in 2023 that all variants everywhere are powered by the same chipset. This came as a […]
Samsung is planning to release the Galaxy S23 FE later this year. We learned that the company wants to bring the next Fan Edition phone to the market in Q4 and that the Galaxy S23 FE will be powered by an Exynos chipset in all markets, surprisingly enough. To be more specific, we're hearing that […]
Samsung has always insisted that its flagship Exynos chipset can match the competitor from Qualcomm but the former has often left a lot to be desired. Previous iterations of its flagship Galaxy S phones made it clear that the Exynos was no match for the Snapdragon. The Galaxy S22 series was the last to feature […]
Everyone (including us) got extremely excited after hearing that there won’t be Exynos versions of the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 Ultra. Samsung’s newest smartphones exclusively use a custom version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, called Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy. And this chipset has done wonders for Samsung. Early […]
The confirmation many Samsung fans had been looking forward to may have come today. It seems Samsung will truly go all in on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip for the Galaxy S23 series, with the European variant showing up in a benchmark with the Snapdragon chip inside it instead of the Exynos 2300, […]
