Samsung's Exynos team was humiliated, when the Galaxy S20 Snapdragon 865 version went on sale in their home country

Although this is good news for users in Korea, it is also disappointing for Samsung itself.

One interesting thing about Samsung's flagship smartphones is that they are equipped with different processing chips depending on the market. Normally, users in the US and China will receive Qualcomm's high-end Snapdragon chip, while the rest of the world will receive Samsung-made Exynos chips.

That rarely happens, because if a smartphone company makes its own chip, it will use it on all its phones.

This year, however, Samsung has changed a bit. The South Korean giant decided to release the Galaxy S20 version with Snapdragon 865 chip in its home country, replacing the Exynos 990 chip version. Although this is good news for users in Korea, but it is also worth the for Samsung itself.

According to a SamMobile report, Samsung's Exynos processor development division was outraged and humiliated by the board's decision. The development team tried to convince but failed. Exynos 990 reports that it does not meet high-end performance expectations.

In fact, there have been many tests that show that Exynos chips are inferior to Snapdragon, in terms of performance and battery life. Users even sent a petition to ask Samsung to stop selling high-end smartphones with Exynos chips.
