Samsung could bring Exynos-powered Galaxy S23 phones after all

20 September 2022
Reports suggest internal conflicts over the use of the in-house chipset.

There goes my hope down the drain. I hated Exynos since the s8. I will never buy Exynos again.

That's Scamsung's fault that they limit customisability on Snapdragon variants, not qualcomm's fault. If they wanted to they could do same for Exynos but then none would buy them.
    And it's their fault for not making SD variants available worldwide, so people have no choice but to get Exynos even if available in ebay because otherwise regional computability issued may arise.

        Snapdragon is trash garbage

            However, they should force Samsung to sell inferior Exynos devices at a significantly lower price than same ones with Snapdragon. So, s23 exynos must be significantly cheaper than s23 Snapdragon. And they must offer Snapdragon devices available where Exynos is sold and vice-versa. If they want to sell it at same or higher price, let them work and make it better!

            And definitely, they must make headphone jacks obligatory for all phones and tablets and also microSD card if internal storage is less than 256gb (yes Asus, that's your ZenFone 9).

            That's just hardware, in software there must be

              But, but we don't want exynos. They get poor support from the developer community, so flashing custom rooms is gonna be bad time.

                  I think European are very strict, they're even make regulations for USB type c for all smartphone even for iphone next year. Why they can't make regulations for Samsung to use snapdragon for flagship? They can ban Samsung if Samsung don't obey that. I wanna see if Samsung have guts to said no and losing the market share.

Exynos 2200 is painful and the main reason I sold both S22 and S22 Ultra I owned. They did not behave like flagships, they barely behaved like entry level devices with a MediaTek G35.

                    I am talking about the way the phones lag, not comparing both SoC which would be ridiculous, but 2200 is so bloody unefficient that it hurts.

I'm still daily driving my Galaxy S8 that I got at launch and I might upgrade to the S23. I know a lot of people who keep their phones for over 5 years despite "new shiny things" getting released

                                      Enigma1, 20 Sep 2022More likely Samsung will do what iPhone is doing, s23, s23+... moreI think you actually might be on point. Knowing how Samsung constantly mocks Apple and then copies whatever they are doing, this is the most plausible scenario. Exynos on S23 and S23+ and Snapdragon on S23 Ultra. Which suuuuuuuucks.

                                      Or just make Exynos better. Exynos has its benefits, being Samsung's own design allows them better integration, but it always ends up being worse which is just weird and makes no sense.

                                        I feel sorry for European customers. They should start complaining more like Australians did then we finally got Snapdragon. Either that or pull your wallet out for a Z Fold (which is Snapdragon globally).
