Scamsung

[LuciferMornigstar]

So we are buying the so called "same" phone with same name and same price, but one performs worse? Isn't that a scam?

Then we should call samsung as scamsung.

This is not a scam. Samsung uses Snapdragon in regions where the majority of users use CDMA as Exynos does not support CDMA, and only supports GSM. They would have given Exynos in those places if Exynos happened to support CDMA.

but they are charging same price, the Qualcomm model is 16 to 20 more efficient and powerful than the exynos model then why we pay same price?

Then what about the tab s7 and s7+? How come they still use the sd 865+ chipset with the tabs7 and tabs7+ even here in India? Isn't exynos meant to be used due to all the CDMA thing?
Samsung also knows that exynos is inferior than snapdragon. And I'm not talking about the exy990. literally all the exynos processors after S7 sucked. Samsung knows this clearly and and still does all of this and the sole reason of doing so: money.
Btw, exynos 1000 was meant to be better than the sd 875, but Qualcomm played here. With Samsung itself producing the Sd875 chipset, theyll make sure not to miss this deal and the superiority of exynos 1000 over 875 would be a threat to the same. So, exynos 1000 will be underperformed knowingly just to make sure it dosent destroy sd 875 and the Samsung Qualcomm deal, as they did with the Sd 865 on the note20u.

@EdoMadara Snapdragon also supports GSM, and if you see, Samsung has always put Snapdragon processors in their tablets (especially flagship ones). And no, the Exynos 9810 (S9 and S9+), 9815 (Note9), 9820 (S10 series) and 9825 (Note 10 and Note 10+) were very good in terms of performance. And how did you know that Exynos will knowingly be underperformed? Did you go and see? Well it might be, but don't say anything before its release. And also benchmarks have leaked, which means we have the final product which is already better (even than the Apple A14 Bionic) in multi core performance.

Multi core of A14 will be higher😅😅 No one can beat it in 2020 atleast. A14 chips are a lot denser than exynos and snapdragon. But I m happy that exynos is closing in on Apple. 😇

[Anikroyale]

Sanskar, single core will be higher, not multi core.

[Sanskar]

okey let's see

[EdoMadara]

See @Anikroyale thats my point. If Samsung can use the sd chipsets all over the world when it comes to tablets, they can do the same for smartphones like other companies do. The only difference is, Samsung can manage to make more profit in areas where they dont have to pay Qualcomm for the CDMA license, where just buying and using sd processors yeilds more profit.
In every other areas, they make more money as making their own processors is always cheaper. So, at the end it all comes down to 'making more profit'. And when I said exynos sucked, I meant when they're compared with their SD counterparts. And thats the truth. After the S7, all the exynos processors were weaker than snapdragon. Even if they're still 'good', Im still getting an inferior product by paying the same money. Plus the heat throttling was there due to the custom mongoose cores.
So, even if exynos processors were 'good' they didnt compare to SD when it came to optimization and gaming, and thats the truth. The bitter truth.
Also, if Samsung can underclock the Sd865+ on the sd note20u just to make sure the gap between the exynos and sd version isnt too big, they can do the same with exy1000 and Sd875.
Also, @Sanskar, the antutu benchmarks of A14 cannot be fully trusted rn as antutu has some optimization issues with ios. Not saying this as an 'isheep' but just because the fact that apple was gonna use the A14X chipset in their upcoming macbooks. So, for sure they'd have made the processor much better than the previous one. Dont get me wrong, Id be happy if exynos 1000 is better than the Sd875 and the A14. That would mean less monopoly and would definitely benefit the end user.

Why so much truth in just one reply?
