Snapdragon 875 in Galaxy S21 benchmarked, but the Exynos 2100 might be the one to have

17 November 2020
The SD875-powered phone has a 3,375 multi-core score, reports are the CPU on the Exynos 2100 could get that to 4,000.

Sort by:

With these higher clock it could outperform SD 875 but possibly with overheating, thermal throttling and battery draining in real world usage.
Plus Qualcomm always modify the cores from ARM, they don't leave them stock, the Mali GPU from Kirin 9000 5G seems to be pretty good and surpass the Adreno GPU in SD 865, but since SD 865 was announced in December 2019 and is on 7 nm+, not 5 nm, the comparison isn't fair.
I'm still very excited for SD 875, it gets a multi core score similar to SD 865 despite the upgrade to Cortex-A78 and Cortex-X1 but it could just be unoptimized for now.

    I bet that this Exynos 2100 claims would be the same way as how Apple does their marketing with their A14 in iPhones (except the max). Great on bursts but a throttling hell during endurance.

      [deleted post]Well you can also stop well u have already comemnted u will stop.And sorry to chase u down in every exynos article cause everytime i give try to understand u something u don't understand it and u speak the same thing again anad again

        It's been a DECADE now since Exy had any lead over SD. Let's wait and see what they're up to now.

          AnonD-967842, 17 Nov 2020My guess is that Snapdragon 875 will be more battery effici... moreTheir is no dout that sd875 will have better efficiency so lets just wait and see how much of a efficiency did samsung have covered up against snapdragon

            Normal person, 17 Nov 2020Your comments only make you look foolish. I'm not even... moreI'm sorry. I'll stop.

              AnonD-955101, 17 Nov 2020Until the phones are out and compared to each other you bet... moreOkay, I'm sorry.

                That Exy2100 perf does not matter, if it's a similar battery hog as the Exy990.

                  My guess is that Snapdragon 875 will be more battery efficient and more stable

                        [deleted post]https://nanoreview.net/en/soc-list/rating the exynos 1080 midrange chip has a higher score (num 2 for 1080, behind a14, num 3 for 875, behind eyxnos 1080 and a14) "superior dragon"

                          I've never been bothered that much of EXYNOS lagging around 10% behind snapdragon, it's the issues with power drain. I will wait for comparison reviews first before making any decision with any Samsung products

                            [deleted post]Your comments only make you look foolish. I'm not even a Samsung user and this is making me cringe. It's like you're spewing uneducated crap all over the comment section without being constructive; a bitter child not having things her way. Yes, Samsung has made bad decisions with Exynos/Snapdragon flagship variants across different regions but that doesn't mean they can't make improvements going forward. You are purely speculating on chips that have not been released and officially benchmarked.

                            P.S From an iPhone user.

                                  Exynos 2100 can be slow cause now its all down to software optimization and samsung is good at optimizing its software for mongoose powered exynos so it may take time to fully optimize software for arm cores.And if exynos 2100 is slightly slow but more efficient than sd875 then it will be great.

                                    Glenico353, 17 Nov 2020Hopefully this is efficient enough to not drain the battery... moreScamsung rarely succeeds in anything - either the CPU is great but it the thermal solution is bad so the phone overheats and throttles like crazy...

                                    Or the battery is drained in an instant - which will be the case with the Exynos garbage 2100.. The battery performance will be just as bad as on the Exynos Note 20 Ultra or even worse..

                                    Also the GPU performance will be far behind the Dragon version due to SCamsung again using the garbage Mali GPU.

                                    So yeah on paper it will be blazing fast, CPU will be great, battery and GPU very very bad and with massive overheating and throttling issues..

                                    Once again a monumental Exynos fail from Scamsung.

                                        Tara Kennedy, 17 Nov 2020Great, more Exynos garbage from Scamsung! The Exynos trash ... moreWhy are you so mad? Chill out man, if you dont like the Phone, just dont buy it lol.
                                        What achievement do you get talking trash? The Phone is obviously going to sell well, just like every Samsung Flagship. Just buy another Phone and leave the People that want the Galaxy S21 alone kid.
