Hey Chaps! Do you think Exynos will ever catch up??

UPDATE 1: labels wrong way round at 00:27
UPDATE 2: It seems only the US Snapdragon model has a single Nano SIM, others are dual-sim
UPDATE 3: feet/metres is due to phones language, not the different SoC

I don't want parody, I want 1 phone in all regions, close enough or almost the same? What an scam Samsung is pulling in EU

Exynos hasn't been good since S6, and the way the 2200 was hyped I thought Exynos will finally be back in the game. At this rate, I feel like its more about optimisation. I mean they are all good chipsets to begin with, its just that many more stuff are just being optimised for the snapdragon

[czaraldover]

Feet/Meters in the Camera app is based on the system language. If set to English (US) you get feet, English (UK) you get meters

[rainZSlayer]

I think the distance unit in the camera app depends on the region of the device since my Indian 8Gen1 ultra uses metres in the app and we also get dual physical SIM support.

FINALLY! I've been waiting for this for too long.

Hello with regards to Exynos game performance did you enable the alternative game performance mode in labs, and enable game boost? Thank you for the information, great video.

My personal experience with the Exynos is that games lagged as they aren't well optimised for the chip and the UI also has minor lags and stutters. Returned it as soon as possible as my Oneplus 8 genuinely gave me a better user experience

• Video was better on the Exynos, better dynamic range although SD had better stabilisation...
• Photo was pretty much equal...
• Performances Snapdragon...
• Battery pretty much equal...

Soooo Exynos is pretty good, the hate it receives isn't legitimate.

I just purchased two samsung S22 and S22+ today.. and both have dual sim with Snapdragon 888 gen1 plus it also have esim for third no, I'm from Malaysia

[Garrettdx]

I absolutely love these performance reviews. Really speaks to my nerdiness.

I have the Exynos version with 512GB and I don't care about games, I watch a lot of movies on my phone. But Samsung needs to step up their game with this chip for the gamers. It's unacceptable that this phone is still as pricey as the snapdragon version but is lagging like hell in games.

Got mine from Wonda Mobile. I believe it's the HK version. Can confirm it's working fine with 5G in UK. Also even after a really heavy day of use my battery has never gone below 30%.

Heya Tech Chap, I've been doing a lot of research lately for a new phone. I'm planning to buy a new phone for both me and my partner. Our budget is 500 euro each. The best pick I could find for that price point is the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5g which is 449 in France. I'm mainly interested in a great camera/video capability to be top notch. Do you know any other phone that can beat this model at this price range? Thank you!

Great info as usual!
After the latest update, my Snapdragon is a beast now here in the States & compared to my Note 10+ hand in hand.
The antennas are surprisingly superb!
Where I only get 4g or a few bars of LTE on my 10+, I'm getting LTE Plus or 5g on my Ultra!
I have a locked Vers. & I'm not able to make changes to Global or 5g or 4g only. It just auto switches when the signal is better.
I bought mine because I mainly watch downloaded movies outdoors & the screen brightness does make a difference. Can't see it on my 10+ but I can see HDR movies easily on my S22 Ultra. Battery performance is lagging though. It gets almost the same Screen on time as my 3yr + old Note 10 Plus.
Camera's are fantastic & I've put my DSLR away & just use my 22 Ultra for photos now. Especially Portrait Mode! 🤟

Sometimes I think its much better for Samsung to add exynos as a supporting chip to the main SD version of the phone. Just like Iqoo implemends its intelligent display chip and oppo is using marisilicon x chip for boosting its camera performance. I am sure that will help reduce the discrepancy.

[deanowarrior]

So close. Only significant difference was the studio video where the Snapdragon really messed up the "tech chap" wall light . It was all over the place while the exynos was perfect. I don't game although both seemed great, so I'd take the exynos as 5g is 800mb where I live in Manchester. Added bonus is on most tests it's also slightly better on battery.

[pothoharpk]

In Pakistan it is going to be given people with 2 nano sims with snapdragon gen 1, It is a different matter that we have not received it yet as it was pre-ordered on March 1

[johnjeffels]

I'm only a few days into ownership of the s22 ultra (exynos version) and so far the only disappointment is the battery life. Right now with 4.5hrs screen on time today I'm at 27% remaining so I'm surprised and impressed with the figures Tom managed to achieve. Hopefully it will improve for me over time as the phone learns my usage patterns 🤞🏻. I have had the phone on charge for a couple of short bursts in the car in that time too 😬.

[MHWGamer]

has anyone ever tested multiple phones of the same kind to see if hardware difference between exemplars can make a difference?
Sure the processing like noise reduction is based on the processor but slight colour changes could be also due to just sensor difference... at least I could see that as a possibility.
Would be funny if these differences could be really that big that you could spot them next to each other but no one ever tested that because the "obvious" mindset is that same chipdesign = same output
