What's crazy about this comparison is that you might get better gaming performance on the Snapdragon because game devs basically don't care about Exynos.

Why is the SD 7s gen 4 ranked higher than the Exynos 1580 if it's inferior in every aspect? On CPU the Exynos 1580 scores 1350/3800 on GB 6 compared to the 1250/3300 on the SD 7s Gen 4 thanks to the higher clock speeds, for the GPU side, the Exynos 1580 is also better because it scores 6,9k on Geekbench GPU test, and while the score of the SD 7s gen 4 doesn't show for now, the SD 7s gen 3 scored 4k, and the SD 7s Gen 4 has the same GPU as the SD 7s Gen 3 (maybe clocked slightly higher, but it won't make it much faster), and finally, efficiency wise, the Exynos 1580 should have similar efficiency to the SD 7s Gen 4, so the SD doesn't beat the Exynos 1580 in any category
