Exynos 1380 in galaxy tayb fe even is expensive than redmi pad pro with 7s gen 2 but at β‚Ή27k the redmi pad pro 8+256 with sim support is way better than β‚Ή40 k just S9 fe tab with small size and it supports sim at β‚Ή40k and wifi at β‚Ή25k which is unfair Plus, at β‚Ή33k you can buy it's buds, smartpen, case keyboard cover and full variant, 7s gen 2 is powerful and stable than 1380 So I go for 7s gen 2

The 7th generation is better for emulation, but essentially, both are similar in performance.

It's crazy how both chips are almost identical to each other. It feels like Qualcomm simply took Samsung's Exynos 1380 and rebranded it as a Snapdragon chip. This could possibly be because it's manufactured by Samsung.

Both processors are lacking in energy management and consumption. The 7s gen 2 gets quite hot, which is disappointing. I would have expected more from the 7s gen 2, also known as the 6 Gen 2 by Samsung lithography. As for the Exynos, I've never had high expectations.

It's unfortunate that while many A54 users praise its battery life, you've concluded that the Exynos 1380 has poor management without even trying it out.

I have two phones, one with a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor and the other with an Exynos 1380. Both exhibit impressive battery management; however, the Snapdragon slightly outperforms in this regard. Additionally, when considering temperature, the Exynos tends to run hotter, while the Snapdragon remains cooler.

Deligma, Exynos chip is fabbed using 5nm tech. Snapdragon is a 4nm chip that's why qualcomm chip is little ahead in efficiency.
