One of the reasons why some might be a bit apprehensive at the idea of Samsung bringing back the Exynos chipset for its Galaxy S24 smartphones next year is because over the years, it has been found that the Exynos chipset tends to underperform compared to Qualcomm’s chipsets.
Unfortunately, it looks like the upcoming Exynos 2400 is no different. Based on benchmarks found on Geekbench’s website for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and the Exynos 2400, it looks like Qualcomm’s chipset is once again pulling ahead of the Exynos in their performance scores.
The benchmarks revealed that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 scored 2,234 in single-core performance and 6,807 in multi-core performance, whereas the Exynos 2400 scored 2,067 and 6,520 respectively. The gap isn’t that big in the multi-core side of things, but it is more obvious in single-core.
It is unclear how this difference will translate in real-life use of the phones. It is possible that users won’t be able to tell the difference in performance for day-to-day tasks like browsing the web, chatting, sending emails, watching videos, and playing music, but it might become a bit more obvious when more intensive applications are being used, like gaming, or photo or video editing apps.
That being said, if you are concerned about the differences, you might want to consider the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra which is rumored to use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 across all regions it will be sold in.
