Samsung claims the Exynos 990 and Snapdragon 865 are no different in performance
Recently, we have witnessed a lot of controversy surrounding Exynos processors on high-end Galaxy S and Note smartphones for processor speed, performance and stability not as high as the used version. Snapdragon chip.
In fact, the performance disparity between Samsung products using Snapdragon and Exynos chips has been mentioned for years, but only really entered the 'peak' phase in late March, when there were tens of thousands of Samsung users simultaneously enrolled in a 'petition', demanding that the Korean manufacturer stop equipping Exynos chips on its smartphone models.
In the face of increasing user complaints, Samsung today officially released its first announcements, confirming that the Exynos 990 chip is equivalent to Snapdragon 865 in terms of performance, meaning there is no difference. on the power between the Galaxy S20 versions the company is selling on the market:
'Galaxy S20 is a smartphone model we created to change the way you experience the digital world. Depending on the region / market, Galaxy S20 will be sold with Exynos 990 or Snapdragon 865. Both are the world's leading mobile processors today.
To be present on our products, these two processors have to go through the same test process as well as extremely rigorous testing scenarios, tied to reality, and have both proven performance. Stable, excellent optimization capabilities when equipped on Samsung smartphones. They can all give users the same good experience throughout the product life cycle. '

So, according to a statement made by Samsung, both Exynos and Snapdragon have gone through the same testing process and brought stable performance on the company's platforms. This information was released by the South Korean manufacturer as more and more loyal Samsung fans spoke out about how they felt they were paying the same or more for a shoddy product.
This assumption is not without foundation, when reviewing benchmark tests, the Galaxy S20 + version using Exynos chips always scores lower than Qualcomm's equipped version. The announcement that Samsung made was deemed too 'generic' and did not really satisfy many people.
Currently, Galaxy S20 version running Snapdragon 865 chip is still sold in the US, China and South Korea. While users in markets outside the three countries above can only buy the Exynos 990 chip. It is likely that the same distribution method will be applied to the new Galaxy Note version launched later this year.
