      Run the battery life test and audio quality test too. That would round up the review.

        My bad, and thank you!

          It's not the benchmark difference between the two that the people are concerned about more but the custom ROM support from developers.

          Will stuck with Lollipop on my Exynos S4, while the SD S4 is enjoying Marshmallow Nightlies.

              QUESTION (for anyone who knows!)
              I live in Canada - soooo - which chip will be in the S7 devices here?
              I'm hoping they're considering Canada part of the US (only from an S7 perspective you understand!)
              They can keep Donald Trump!! ;)

                  Samsung must change at future Note 6 and S8 this stupid 4:3 camera with only 9 mp in 16:9. This is a joke. The technology announced with dual pixel and stuff is useless because the final results are the same in all conditions with the old 16 mp camera of S6. They must not change the camera !!!

                    AnonD-442784, 17 Mar 2016Wow, QualComm/Snap Dragon stepped their game up big time. ... moreSamsung downlocked Exynos to match SD820.

                    Initial scores on Geekbench (4 months ago) were 2300 Single core and 7500 multi core.
                    Then Samsung downclocked so that the two versions won't feel much apart in performance.

                    Don't kid yourself, the Exynos version is far and apart. The only reason that they seem close is because Samsung wanted it so (Qualcomm is better for Americans, so they nerfed the international version of S7 so that Americans won't cry)

                    50% faster in since core and 40% faster in multicore than Exynos 7420...

                        Nice to see that there isn't that much of a difference between them. If they can keep this up, we might finally have some real competition in the ARM System-On-a-Chip world.

                          I hope you would include heat test under heavy usage for both Variant .

                            Wow, QualComm/Snap Dragon stepped their game up big time.

                            They Exynos used to be far and away the best chip out there, not anymore. This might end up being a good thing, for other phones that use the 820.
