Antz, 15 Jul 2019Was S855 not already more or less S845 OC-ed ? seriously?What are you talking about? The SD 845 has ARM Cortex-A75 derivatives derivatives while the SD 855 has ARM Cortex-A76 derivatives, you thought it was the same SoC just overclocked?
Yes like 0.04 GHz more is gonna give you 1k more single core score in Geekbench... *Facepalm*

    AnonD-731363, 15 Jul 2019SD855 plus what a joke why there is no SD860 or SD865???Because it's just an overclocked SD 855...
    They could call it SD 856 like they did with SD 820 and 821.
    Why do you want them to call it 865 when it's pretty much the same SoC ?

        Are we not in time for the 865 already? anyway phones are way too expensive these days, I wish the trend in price starts to go down, it has been a few years since phone prices have been increasing specially the flagships, let's be honest who really needs 512gb to 1Tb of storage in a phone, most of us use cloud storage for images and videos and we only have a handful of games installed if any, therefore that space is mainly filled with cache from the apps we use instead, also 2k-4k resolutions on a 6 inch screen, really? Cameras with 50+ megapixels, just give us a good lens with enough resolution and please lets avoid these spec sheet bragging rights race between companies that are only causing these devices to offer unnecessary features and expenses to the consumers.

            Even low end Snapdragon is better than any Mediatek. Waiting for Snapdragon 900.

                                  At this point in life after using all latest flagships i believe that it's just marketing gimmicks 845, 855 855+ all r same.

                                  All these are same chips only clock speed is increased which is hardly a difference in real life performance

                                      This makes a lot of sense.
                                      Samsung and Huawei are both slightly refreshing there flagship chips for there upcoming Note/Mate release and if Qualcomm don't update there flagship chips it won't be in the Note 10 lineup. As well as being inferior to the Exynos 9825/ Kirin 985 when they come out.
                                      They are doing this to keep up with everyone else and to bring in $$$ with the Note 10 lineup.
