GSMarena is saying South Korea gets the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 variant. If that's true, it's a safe indicator the Exynos is dogshit. Wouldn't be surprised if performance/watt is worse than the 865 since no Samsung fabbed SoC has beaten that one yet.
Edit: seems like South Korea are getting Exynos for the S24 and S24+. Looks like GSMarena are wrong. Hope it isn't a shit show like the 990 and 2200 but I don't expect much.
Nice phone but why is Europe having exynos again?
Because Samsung considers that Europeans are going to buy it anyway. They have to be more competitive in the US where they face Apple.
Eroupe has more options than in the US. Wouldn't Samsung want to be more competitive as well?
Yay they're bringing back an orange colorway like for the S20 FE. Too bad prices are crazy and I got a nothing phone 2 for less than 3/4 the price of the S24+
Based on the other thread, I don't think a lot of people are excited.
Yeah it seems like that most people see it at best as a software refresh imo.
I like their design but I won't buy a nerfed European version and I don't want AI. So yeah no thanks, if work buys me one cool but otherwise no. I don't get excitement out of buying a new phone anymore.
Unless they bought me an Xperia or something mad out there.
Is it perhaps time to unsticky this thread, as it's been six months?
