Galaxy S24 FE's Exynos chip is faster than iPhone 16's A18 in ray tracing

Exynos 2400e beats iPhone 16's A18 chip in ray tracing, isn't a significant downgrade from Exynos 2400

The Exynos 24ooe's performance was tested by GSMArena, and it has been revealed that it isn't a significant downgrade compared to the Exynos 2400 used in the Galaxy S24 and the Galaxy S24+.

In Geekbench 6's single-core CPU test, the Exynos 2400e scored 2,146  points, while the Galaxy S24+'s Exynos 2400 scored 2,201 points. In the multi-core CPU benchmark, the Exynos 2400e scored 6,711 points, while the Exynos 2400 reached a score of 6,926 points. So, the Exynos 2400e was just 2.5% slower in the single-core test and 3.2% slower in the multi-core test.

In terms of graphics processing, the Exynos 2400e scored 3,870 points in 3DMark's Wild Life Extreme GPU test at 4K resolution. In comparison, the Galaxy S24+'s Exynos 2400 chip scored 4,365 points, while the Apple iPhone 16 Plus' A18 chip scored 4,029 points. That makes the Exynos 2400e 12% slower than the Exynos 2400 and 4% slower than the Apple A18.

In 3DMark's Solar Bay test, which tests a device's ray tracing performance, the Exynos 2400e scored 8,242 points. The Exynos 2400 scored 8,743 points, while Apple's A18 scored 6,691 points. That makes the Exynos 2400e around 6% slower than the Exynos 2400 and 23% faster than the Apple A18.

Despite being $150 cheaper than the iPhone 16 Plus, the Galaxy S24e has performed admirably. It is just 4% slower in general GPU benchmarks and over 23% faster in ray tracing. Compared to the Galaxy S24+'s Exynos 2400 chip, the Galaxy S24 FE appears to be less than 5% slower in CPU tests, 12% slower in GPU rasterization tests, and 6% slower in GPU ray tracing tests.

We think most people will not notice any difference in performance between the Galaxy S24 FE and the Galaxy S24/S24+ in day-to-day tasks or gaming. And that is great when someone is spending $350 less and choosing the Galaxy S24 FE over the Galaxy S24+.
