Quote from: Official Samsung Hater on February 10, 2023, 10:34:34I'm actually considering the Galaxy S23 as I think this is the first time ever Samsung has gone Snapdragon for EU release. It's kind of ironic that Pixel's seem to be more Exynos these days than Samsung themselves and I don't see this changing anytime soon as apparently Google seem to have a 3 year contract with them (so the upcoming Pixel 8 / Tensor G3, will be based on another outdated Exynos design).
Yeah, their software is bad but worst comes to worst can always just flash another rom whereas there's no easy fix for Google's lack of competitive CPU performance on Tensor. Not gonna wait 5 years for them to catch up. I need SD 8 Gen 2 performance right now as Skyline emu seems to be taking off recently with dev's even planning online multiplayer netplay feature parity to that of Yuzu/Ryujinx.
At this point, if still going/purchasing Pixel, you're literally just paying for the future further R&D of Exynos SoCs.
But I don't like a monopoly on one brand of SOC. back to the intel case first. The exynos SOC isn't good yet. The dream team's SoC line is really new, isn't it? from the Exynos SoC core, it will be produced in 2025. Google Tensor G3 is likely to be a custom Exynos 2300. Up until now, the Exynos 2300 has not been produced. (Are you using the newest Arm Cortex-A53 CPU, and do you use the latest AMD GPU? You still don't know. (Make sure the latest Samsung SOC is available on their website.) (My question, for example, is: for Samsung line phones and all Mediatek SOCs, do you 100% agree?) Or do you agree that Samsung phones use 100% Qualcomm SOCs? But in my opinion, I don't agree with Qualcomm becoming a monopoly on the smartphone market.)
