The problems is that Samsung insists on putting both SoC on the same model for the same price depending on the region. If they want to use both then they should put the Exynos 2400 on the Base or Plus variant while the Ultra model will have the 8 Gen 3. Using both on the same device is unfair as no matter how great the 2400 is, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is still undeniably superior.

Despite Samsung's exynos 2400 coming out 3 months after Qualcomm snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the 8 Gen 3 is clearly the winner here in overall performance as well as reputability. And with Google's custom tensor chip being based on exynos which has a history of mediocrity since it's 2021 inception with it's flaws and lackluster performance, it's no wonder Samsung powers their lower line phones with exynos while powering their flagship phones with qualcomm.

The normal S24 AU version is sadly using the Exynos 2400. Literally fk #Exynos to hell. The S21 is super slow with it. #Android isn't optimised to begin with and then manufacturers go putting in sub-par chips on launch (vs Snapdragon which is limited to a few countries and only some models and years).

Samsung is on the right track to creating superior chipsets. Now, they should concentrate on thermal stability and efficiency; everything else is already satisfactory. Healthy competition always benefits consumers. However, Samsung needs to maintain fairness. If the standard 24 and 24+ are receiving Exynos, then they should provide Exynos worldwide without bias towards Japan, the US, Canada, and China. If this is the case, I would be more than happy to use an Exynos-powered smartphone.

Agreed. I've been using an S21+ (Exynos) up until now and it hasn't let me down. In terms of benchmarking, thermal control, and efficiency, it may not be the best, but my experience with the S21+ has been satisfying. I hope Samsung will build a better chipset in the future, because it would not be beneficial to only have Snapdragon and MediaTek as the main competitors in the Android market.

For those wondering why the Exynos 2400 performs better in gaming tests, despite theoretically having a much weaker GPU (see Antutu score), it's because the Xclipse 940 is based on the RDNA 3 architecture. This isn't entirely compatible with some of the APIs used in those benchmarks. Furthermore, the GPU itself does not support native OpenGL and relies on ANGLE for its translation.

Get rid of the Exynos; it's embarrassing. If Samsung wants to avoid paying Qualcomm's fee, they should incorporate a high-end MediaTek Dimensity into their phones and sell them at a slightly lower price. It would still be a better price-performance than anything Exynos has to offer. Exynos continues to exist through its equivalent, Tensor, in Pixel phones. There's no need to flog a dead horse. Samsung isn't proficient at manufacturing chips. Leave it to TSMC.

They won't include a MediaTek Dimensity because it has a higher TDP and tends to overheat, as seen in the case of the Vivo X100 Pro (Dimensity 9300). Samsung doesn't have advanced cooling technology, compared to companies such as Asus and OnePlus.

It's an Exynos/Snapdragon dilemma in the market... Dependence on Chinese technology can be risky. This time, with better optimization in major updates, we could see a superior 10-core Exynos. I hoped Samsung would retire Exynos for 2 years, studying and developing more sophisticated technology before its relaunch in 2026. After the S4's horrific fail, they put a hold on the whole new Exynos project and developed it further into Exynos 7420, which was a powerhouse compared to the 2-core A series and 4-core Snapdragon. After one major OS update, it was considered the best. The S7 also saw great success with the 8890 chip, but a mistake was made when the S8 used the same unit, just modified. The S9 was let down by poor optimization, whereas the Note9 demonstrated the potential of the Exynos 9810. However, then came the downfall...

Honestly, this year, it's not at all embarrassing. The device uses Xclipse940 and that's why on paper, the GPU seems weaker (due to the incompatibility of RDNA3 with many benchmarks), but during testing, it occasionally outperformed the Sd 8g3! The GPU is strong, and I'm not sure why you should be overly troubled by a smartphone CPU that is indeed very capable. It may not be superior to the 8g3 but it's definitely not embarrassing at all. In fact, the term "embarrassing" might be more applicable to the Google Tensor. For non-gamers, it's reliable, but it fails in terms of battery life. However, this Exynos is certainly commendable, especially with its innovative feature of hosting 10 cores!

Hey buddy, the same things were said back when MediaTek released an SoC. Give them time and patience; at least they are making it increasingly powerful - this time, it's just close to Snap 8 Gen 3. My take would be to promote what Samsung is doing. They are manufacturing the best hardware for mobile phones, and the SoC is more stable and power-efficient than before. It's even less vulnerable to thermal throttling, but the GPU still needs a lot of optimization.

Posts similar to this were made when the Exynos 2200 launched on the S22 Ultra, and I must say, I almost regretted not getting another iPhone. However, after six months, the S23 Ultra was launched and I could definitely tell the difference, it was like night and day. Even now, my SD8G2 is on a performance profile (70% CPU) and it still performs outstandingly, whereas the other architecture could not even load the gallery.

Samsung has really dropped the ball by incorporating the Exynos 2400 processor. They could have opted for a more reliable 8th gen option instead. The processor is absolutely garbage, and their pricing needs to be much lower simply due to the subpar quality of this processor. It's not worth anywhere between 90kRs to 100kRs. The s24 was reasonably priced, ranging from 75kRs to 89kRs. This is a poor decision on Samsung's part, and I will not be investing in this particular model. The Exynos processor is substandard, and there are superior options available. Why should I pay for such a flawed processor? It would be more economical to stick with the older S22 at this price point, which proved to be more reliable. In conclusion, it's highly unwise to spend money on this model due to the inferior Exynos processor. It's not trustworthy, and a safer bet would be to invest in the Ultra model or retain an older model.

I must disagree, the Exynos 2400 is not as bad as it seems. In fact, it is standing neck and neck with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. There are numerous videos proving this claim. Therefore, it seems like Samsung has done their homework this time.

If the power efficiency of the new Exynos is better than previous chips I don't mind having an Exynos is a new phone. I also don't think the benchmarks are all that "fair". I think the main performance advantage for the SDgen3 is coming from the faster (+600Mhz) RAM. In most modern CPU benchmarks we see big speed improvements if faster RAM is used with the same clock speeds. If Samsung couples the Exynos with the same 4800MHz RAM we will probably see equal or better performance for Exynos. For now, I think the slower RAM will keep power usage lower. As I look at the CPU design of the Exynos, it seems it is designed to provide a large amount of low-power CPU power. I think this design provided options to schedule more task to use the the low-power CPU cores, causing less frequent scheduling of medium, high of very high performance and power hungry CPU cores. This might be the game changer for the power efficiency people are looking for these days.

Bro, please recheck the benchmark comparison again. The GPU of the 8Gen3 is almost 50% better than that of the 2400. It's a significant score-lifter, not just due to faster memory.

The Exynos 2400 represents a significant advancement for Samsung and should ideally be deployed in the S24FE rather than the S24. Curiously, the S23FE utilizes 8 Gen 1 and is priced higher than the S23 which features 8 Gen 2. This discrepancy provokes questions about the efficacy of Samsung's marketing department.

It's obvious to me that the Exynos is built in a purposeful way - they have contracts with Qualcomm and making the Exynos the same level as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is not smart at all. Exynos will be kept a step below on purpose for the near future.

bop, The goal is to push the sales of the S24 Ultra to their maximum. Even if previous models aren't taken into consideration, they will continue to sell the basic S23 model, which operates on Snapdragon 8 Gen. 2. They will also highlight the Galaxy AI feature in the S24 Ultra, which some may dismiss as unnecessary. Later, they will provide an update for the S23 Series, which will include the same Galaxy AI. They will levy a "small fee" for use of this feature, but they won't incorporate it into models released after 2025. "The Galaxy AI will be provided without additional charges on supported Galaxy devices at least until the end of 2025." In the meantime, the S25 Series might be introduced with the Exynos 2500 on all models. That's my prediction.

The 23FE used 2200, check your facts. Back in the day, I have pre ordered the S22 with 2200, thinking I am getting an amazing phone. The S22 at the time was by my opinion the best looking Galaxy phone to date. But dear lord, the 2200 was the absolutely utterly the most shocking junk I have ever had the pleasure to experience. Never ever will again pre order any Samsung phone, because they will lie, year after year, all over again. Promising the best Galaxy ever, forgetting to mention that it's a pocket toaster. The 2200 even before it starts overheating, which is pretty fast..it performs terribly.

Radik, Don't be ignorant. The S23FE has 8 Gen 1 in North America, and the Exynos 2200 is the worst chip ever. So, of course, it's bad. The 2400 is way better, and you've never tested it. Stop being a Snapdragon fanboy.

Objectively Damsunf has utilised lower clock speed across the board which I’m guessing off sets the 10-core configuration. Samsung has the performance figures fine for most people but as said by others efficiency needs a boost, if Samsung trades outright peak performance for significant efficiency the 2400 would be my choice.

The amazing thing about the Exynos 2400 is its 10-core CPU architecture. Even though it's not as good as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in the multi-core Geekbench scores, it's great to have Samsung as a viable competitor to TSMC.

power efficiency December 18, 2023 at 09:50 AM
I am currently using the Exynos SOC-based S20. The feature I dislike the most about this SOC is its power efficiency - it's the worst. I don't need an extra 10% speed difference, but having more efficient battery consumption is crucial to me. I've had to sacrifice using the 120Hz feature to ensure that the phone's battery consumption isn't disastrously bad. I won't purchase any other devices with this Exynos SOC until numerous reviews indicate improvements in battery efficiency. I don't need a better GPU or more CPU, as long as the battery issues are addressed.

power efficiency, You failed to mention the poor modem combination for Exynos. Further issues such as terrible standby time and excessive heat generation are other reasons never to purchase an Exynos product again. I actually own an S20 and have been compelled to disable high resolution and 120Hz features to conserve battery life. Despite these measures, I still end up having to charge my phone twice a day. It's really disappointing. I'll have to consider lowering my expectations to an S23 if they release an S24 with Exynos in my region.

Let's clarify. Having two extra cores is beneficial because processes can be distributed across a higher number of cores, reducing the overall temperature and power consumption. However, this can lessen immersion. On the other hand, the additional cores might actually increase power consumption, leading to higher heat loss and resulting in what's called "throttling", which lowers efficiency. Can someone explain why Qualcomm's eight cores are still superior to TSMC's ten cores?

Samsung is certainly catching up in the CPU race! If the benchmark results are accurate, they definitely have the potential to compete against the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Dimensity 9300, and A17 Pro in both CPU and GPU. Hopefully, Samsung has addressed the main issue that the Exynos 2200 faced, which was power efficiency. This was a significant problem as it drained the battery in the Galaxy S22 series. Another intriguing aspect is that it has a total of 10 cores.

I'm not certain about the Exynos 2500, but there are rumors suggesting that the 8th generation i4 surpasses the M3 chip in Geekbench scores. This is incredibly impressive, given that Geekbench often favors Apple. I don't believe that Samsung will be able to match the performance of the i4 either, especially considering its usage of a 3nm architecture.

People are obsessing over 8K this, 8K that, yet they fail to understand the immense stability of Snapdragon. In comparison, Exynos and MediaTek 8K are extremely underwhelming. No one buys a smartphone-based solely on its capacity to capture 8k video. In terms of performance, the 8th Generation 3 far outperforms both Exynos and MediaTek. It maintains impressive stability even under harsh conditions, while still being more efficient than its counterparts. As demonstrated by the 8th Generation 2 itself, it's already ahead in efficiency and stability compared to the A17 Pro. Therefore, it's absolutely absurd to suggest MediaTek and Exynos could possibly rival Snapdragon. At present, Snapdragon is unarguably leading the pack globally in terms of performance and efficiency.

I mean, it is already much better than some snapdragon 695 which can only record at some laughable 1080p. Like, you would consider recording with your laptop's webcam than recording with this. And manufacturers still ship phones with this chip in 2023. The flagships records videos at 16 times the number of pixels than the budget phones. Can they at least make the budget phone video recording experience usable?

Who really needs 8K recording? In my opinion, it's definitely an overkill. The Dimensity processor heats up considerably, which is a more crucial issue than 8K video recording capability. I don't think anyone is even excited about 8K video recording right now.
