It was with the note 4 that the exynos variant got for the first time ever cortex a57 cores and left snapdragon pretty much in the dust even though it was locked to 32 bits.

NoteFiend, 03 Aug 2018When has samsung ever put that plastic wrap on their phones... moreIt is a sealed unit. All phone should be sealed to prove they havent been tempered with. If you buy an unsealed unit that mean likely the inside has been tempered with like the software or accessories. Sometime you find non related item like gaming coupon or carrier stuff.

xOdd, 04 Aug 2018But isn't that unfair? SD variants get a great GPU, and get... moreI think I know why. However I recommend taking it with a pinch of salt.
When Qualcomm and Samsung wrote their agreement in the arc of S4... Qualcomm agreed that samsung may be better in some aspects, but in others the SoC has to be weaker.
Did you know that tiny package called SoC has 40 parts inside it? Besides the well known CPU, GPU, RAM, and Modem? On most of these pieces both Snapdragon and Exynos use Equivalent pieces.
According to the contract that was set between them
EACH side agreed on PURPOSE which pieces will overtake comparing to the "rival"
Technically samung truly could make a SoC that would make snapdragon inferior in every aspect. But the contract between the two limits.
As per why it was made in the first place. I honestly don't know. You may ask in Qoura or Reddit.

Lag is subjective to people, some will say lag while others do not feel it. I bet your sensitivity is too high.

Indeed, this is a widespread disease that cause people on the Internet to relate lies based on an inexistant experience just to cause harm to an entity, platform, software, device, company, ethnic group or ideology.

benny, 03 Aug 2018what beast nothing new is all in s9+all it needs is heat management.
using this with dex / vr gear without the heat would be a good enough diff.

Kiyasuriin, 03 Aug 2018And pay royalties to Qualcomm when importing to USA? And Ch... moreUm the gpu in snap is not that much better. Only by a bit.
And it's only because Samsung put more focus on the cpu which is a lot better. Along with the audio in exynos device which is better thanks to standalone dac.

Very minimal changes. NOT worth the money. Im using GS9 and I am starting to feel the lag. The performance is good but the lag is starting to manifest. So yeah, Samsung phone still lags after a few months.
