Mali graphics finally catching up to Adreno. Exynos will have AMD graphics later this year. I guess that will completely trash Adreno?

    Actually in terms of battery Exynos varient is little bit better

      Mrwhosetheboss did a video on this and he noticed a lot of difference between exynos and snapdragon version. IG they ran the tests one time, they must run these tests at least 5 times and judge by the average.

        Please conduct a battery comparison between these 2 models.
        5% or even 10% of performance difference is not noticeable at flagship level. But 10% battery difference would be significant

            I heard that both of them have thermal issues. Snapdragon 865 looks like a masterpiece now.

              Finally Samsung catch up with Qualcomm, this would be better future for us as consumer, if there is competition between brands, consumer would get best

                You guys did some sustained performance & thermal tests a while ago (maybe a year or so), why not continue doing those for most phone? S888 is reportedly heating up a lot in Mi11 & iQOO 7

                    after watch some tests, exy2100 performance is still behind the sd888.

                    But exy 2100 is good at power consumption and finally good enough to play hd games, also decent at running PS emulator

                      Any electronic there is more expensive than USA.
                      If a product costs $1000 in USA, it is gonna cost at least €1000 in Europe. Which is $1203.

                        Bigger screen is way better for games.
                        Also, you can easily play 9-10h in sequence.
                        Because of much larger body, tablet will never overheat.

                          I would love to see a video comparison in daylight and at night. I really wanna know how good is exynos in low lights conditions... specifically in 4k 60fps (also 30fps) compared to sd888

                            Power used to do tasks has nothing to do with cpu power.
                            It is how much energy it uses.

                            Example: if SD888 version uses 10% for 20min of gaming, how much does exynos use? More or less?



                              Yeah now let’s see battery performance as well as thermal performance...

The Exynos version should be cheaper due to inferiority, but ironically, its price in Europe is higher than that of the SD in America and S. Korea. Did Samsung pay you to troll?

                                  The snapdragon chip is better but Samsung insist of selling their exnos in India and the EU at the same price as the US.

                                  This is unfair and unethical.

The Exynos depicts less raw power and less sustained performance than the Snapdragon. This is a complete rip-off. Apps nowadays are always power hungry, the need for resources will only grow. Even the camera images on the S21U SD version are much better! If you don't care about power, how about get along with a feature phone then?

                                        You use both phones and feel zero difference.
                                        Antutu is beyond pointless.
