[Q] Galaxy S5 : Exynos vs Snapdragon - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm tempted to upgrade my decrepit S2. Now with the S4 it seemed like the choice was like this
1) The Snapdragon based i9505 had better battery life, stability and LTE. It was supported well by Cyanogenmod
2) The Exynos based i9500 didn't have any of that stuff.
On the other hand the Exynos version was the only version on sale in Taiwan where I live. Now I could get an i9505 in the UK but the UK's a horrible place to buy phones or indeed anything - the prices are the highest in the world and Samsung products sold in Europe had funny SIM locking issues.

NB links are nerfed to avoid the spam filter - s/w w w/www/g to make them work
So I decided to pass on the S4.
Is the same thing going to happen with the S5? I've found a list of model numbers
w w w.sammobile.com/2014/01/29/all-model-numbers-sm-g900-galaxy-s5-confirmed/
- SM-G9006V_CHN_CHN (China)
- SM-G9008V_CHN_ZM (China)
- SM-G9009D_CHN_CTC (China)
- SM-G900A_NA_ATT (AT&T)
- SM-G900D_JPN_DCM (Japan)
- SM-G900F_EUR_XX (Open Europe)
- SM-G900H_EUR_XX (Open Europe)

- SM-G900L_KOR_LGC (Korea)
- SM-G900M_LA_VF (Vodafone)
- SM-G900P_NA_SPR (Sprint)
- SM-G900R4_NA_USC (US Cellular)
- SM-G900S_KOR_SKC (Korea)
- SM-G900T_NA_TMB (T-Mobile)
- SM-G900V_NA_VZW (Verizon)
- SM-G900W8_NA_BMC (BMC)
I also know that the ones on sale in Taiwan are SM-G900I. I guess the question is whether they are Exynos or Snapdragon?
Of course it's also possible that Samsung have fixed the issues with the Exynos that caused Exynos based S4's to have worse battery life - rumoured to be that the Cache Coherent Interconnect bus didn't work and had to be disabled. Even so I think custom Roms are important and for the S2-S4 Snapdragon based devices have been better supported by them.
Questions
1) Am I right that Snapdragon based S5's are a better bet?
2) Is the SM-G900I Snapdragon or Exynos?
3) Does anyone know a shop near New York or Washington where I could pick up a SIM unlocked Snapdragon S5 for a reasonably price? I think I'll be on the East Coast of the US for a business trip in a month or so so I could get one then.

I personally will choose Snap not Exynos as its always hot whike processing. This been proved from various Samsung models.

The Exynos version is expected to pack the new 5422 SoC that supports HMP, so it should be able to run all 8 cores at once, in which case it will be definitely faster than the 801. Battery life is a big question, but the Exynos 6 Hexa in the Note 3 Neo ain't bad at all, so the new Octa at the minimum looks promising.

Not Galaxy S2, Note1 and S3 (with S3 the actual problem is the RAM, not the CPU). At that time, US versions use what people called Crapdragon.
Note 2 has Exynos version only, but it's very hard to get hot, highest stability result ever in any mobile phone, and the best battery life at its time.

I just hope this time they will bring LTE to the Exynos variant too. Otherwise i'll have to go with the snapdragon.

Yup!

Snapdragon version would be better IMO because it will have more dev support than the exynos version.
snadragon version also has LTE
And yes, the i9505 had better battery life than the i9500.
correct me if i am wrong, but the exynos octa used in the S4 isnt too different from the one used in the S5?
So if that were true, the snapdragon 801 should create an even bigger gap between the new exynos octa in terms of battery life.

Hmm.. exynos s4 has longer battery, you can check thread in xda or ericca griffin youtube comparison

Android system percentage is way too high, maybe you have some app causing long wakelocks.
Anyway, here is a reference to my battery life on the exynos S4 on android 4.4.2:

The New Exynos is much better with HMP and a better GPU than the Exynos used in the S4.
It is similar to the one used in the Note 3. The Exynos version of the Note 3 has good battery life and is as good as the SD800 version.

Not so much with Qualcomm's envelope tracking technology. LTE can be more efficient than old school 3G antennas, although much depends on reception (usually stronger for 3G).

Samsung announces Exynos 5 Octa, an A15 and A7 hybrid SoC

Samsung's most exiting announcement yet - the Exynos 5 Octa chipset.:laugh:
It brings 8 processor cores, which distribute the work load among each other.
Four Cortex-A15 cores ensure incredible performance while the other four are low-power Cortex-A7s that kick in for the less demanding tasks and save battery power.
The chipset is based on ARM's big.LITTLE tech, which ensures that you will always get enough performance without having to deal with terrible battery life.
Samsung promises up to 70% lower power consumption compared to the Exynos 5 Dual, which is powering the Google Nexus 10 tablet and the latest Chromebook by Samsung.
The Exynos 5 Octa could posses as much as twice the 3D rendering prowess of the Exynos 4 Quad, which is found in the Galaxy S III. :good:
Will this end to Samsung S4?
Hard to say, normally use exynos 5 quad since no device using it yet
Yet, the other 4 core should use cortex a9
Then totally is a beast already
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
So? What is it that a single A15 core can not do but 4 A7 cores can? Low expected performance or low power consumption?

I think the main idea about this chip is the low power consumption.
Tegra used single companion core but Samsung uses 4 companion core-like.
Samsung is crazy they may add it in S4, besides they are the manufactures.

Agree. A7 cores may provide good battery life but i guess performance will not be up to the mark. But then there's 4 a15 cores, a heck of performance

All that announcement sounds great, but how to cool it down when reaching high clocks and high temperatures? Isn't this Biglittle chip more suitable in a bigger body , Chromebook, tablet, rather than in a phone? I understand the swapping on the fly between the lower and higher cores, but the heat question is not answered for me. Can somebody with better knowledge enlighten me?

Some rumours suggest that they'll use the 8 core in tablets and chrome books, and that the S4 may have a 4 core version with 2 A15's and 2 A7's. Just a rumour but heat and volts will be a lot lower with 4 less cores. I have no idea how dual A15's are in terms of perfomance, haven't checked other phones benchmarks in ages

You must look at this as the current Intel laptops who have I3,5,7 processors.
When you are browsing the web the onboard videpchip is doing all the rendering. But when you Start up for example FarCry the onboard chip gets overloaded and the graphics card takes over the duty. Power when you need it, to save power.
Another example :
When the V-TEC kicks in yo !
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
The reason for the A15 and A7 is that the A7 will handle simple tasks and minimal multitasking but when pressure is placed on the CPU it will switch to the A15 to easily handle it then back to A7 when the power of the A15 is not needed aka BIG little tech which means the perfect balance between performance and battery life

If they switch to Dual A15 and Dual A7's then Sony Z will take over in performance and will be the number one choice.
If S4 gonna have Big Small 8core its gonna Rock and will have unbeatable performance.
About the temp, when on 3G and browsing i guess it will be on A7 so temperatures is expected to be low.
Do you know most of the time S3 uses dual core and the rest are off and sometimes single core only!!
Note III will have plenty of space to include this monster of a chip. Looking at all the 5"+ devices at CES, the S IV will also be big enough for it (and also with enough room to dissipate all the heat).
Guys, just think, if you check on wikipedia, there is no Exynos 5 quad and I don’t think they will release any after the OCTA: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exynos_(system_on_chip)
As everywhere is said, the exynos 5 quad will be just a murder for a battery, so I’m sure they will use OCTA in S4. Come on Samsung, we want S4 with OCTA !

Wikipedia is written by users, not companies.
There is a Exynos 5 Quad and they announced it in their smart TV's and that expansion module for upgrading for > 2012 models. It's running at 1.3GHz.
We know there's a 5410 (As shown during the Octa presentation at CES) and a 5440, as disclosed in the Linux upstream kernel.

Do you have the thread link on PCInLife? Edit: Found it but attachments are registered only and I can't get passed the Chinese catpcha.
Anyway, those slides are great. It supports all use-case models so basically the possibilities are limitless on the side of the kernel and power management. Only thing I wonder now is if the two clusters are on separate frequency planes.
I think it's come from here : http://we.pcinlife.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2038663&extra=&ordertype=1&threads=thread&mobile=yes
But i'm not sure because i don't speak chinese. I found it on Anandtech's forum.

BB AMOLED and Exynos :(

Sad news...
Yes you just read the title of this message right. Our insider just gave us the first official “unconfirmed” specifications of the next generation Galaxy S, the Galaxy S IV. The Galaxy S IV will no longer use the Samsung EXYNOS processor and according to the latest rumours this processor has overheating issues. Today we can confirm Samsung will use the Snapdragon 600 and it is clocked at 1.9 Ghz which is 0.2 Ghz higher than the HTC One. The Galaxy S IV will have 2 GB of RAM and will come in three variants 16, 32 or 64 GB. As the rumours earlier reported Samsung is going to use a Full HD display. The Galaxy S IV uses a 4,99″ Full-HD SoLux Display we have no information if this is based on LCD3 like the HTC One. But a couple of months ago we posted the first hint regarding Samsung’s LCD factory is ready to produce Full HD panels from early 2013. And we also know Samsung’s AMOLED factory does have many problems with the production of full HD AMOLED screens.
We also know more about the build and dimensions of the device. According to our insider the dimensions of the device are 140.1 x 71.8 x 7.7mm and the weight is 138 gram, the new Galaxy S IV will use a home button and will have touch buttons. If you look at the photo below you will see that it will be square formed again, so they dropped the Galaxy SIII design line. He also said the sides are made from aluminium but the back is still plastic which automatic hints to a removable battery which is good to know.
Yesterday we already found out that the Galaxy S IV will have a 13 megapixel camera. Some leaked photos created by the Galaxy S IV showed up to confirm that.
If our insider is right again this is a bad sign for all the EXYNOS and AMOLED freaks out there. Below a list of the confirmed specifications through us right under the specification list you will see the boot screen photo.
- 4,99″ Full-HD SoLux Display
- Snapdragon 600 1.9 Ghz
- 2 GB RAM
- 16, 32 or 64 GB
- 13 Megapixel
- 140.1 x 71.8 x 7.7mm
- 138 gram
- Home button with touch buttons
- Plastic back with aluminium sides
- Removable battery
- Black / White

Exynos 5 Octa uses I think it was 4 low power cores and 4 high speed cores, so it's not a battery drain for low end tasks. (Octa = 8)
I will wait for official word on this, I can't see Samsung announcing the Octa this year, then not using it, it gives competitors a chance to trump it.
If they do use the snapdragon 600 it will be good because whist yes the Exynos is a good processor Samsung will not release decent documentation for it, so developers have a hard time getting AOSP roms working efficiantly, the Snapdragon range is completely open source so roms will work a lot better, and be easier to port. Exynos has already made developers leave Samsung devices.

doubt that, since they got LTE and exynos working together finally. but the snapdragon seems like a give and take situation. that octa looks like it'll be an amazing processor, but if it's a snapdragon then we can finally get AOSP working fine.
as for the LCD, that's gonna be a personal preference for everyone. I wouldn't mind either, but I'd miss the blacks on the LED. the color punch is really nothing, I set my display to natural.
but really, do we even need the octa now? these phones we have now are over powered. I run my note ii at 1ghz with 1 core enabled and notice no differences in day to day use (except video chatting, that requires at least two cores lol) . point is, these quad cores (by today's standards) are just too much, and kinda gimmicky. I don't think we'll need to see the octa for a good year or two.

Samsung have announced the Octa now, it won't be long before other chip manufacturers try to beat it, then Samsung's great idea will be old tech before it comes out. They have no choice but to put it in something if they want to make any use of it.
Btw we will get more details from Samsung on mwc starting tomorrow. Ill believe this only if it comes from Samsung. Whatever the processor or screen it has already been decided and s4 shoukd be in mass production right now.
《posted from s3》
I think that's nt true. Because making a SS on PS and open up that image on a phone and taking a photo in bad light conditions isn't too hard.
Actually, I think that phone is Xperia Z or LG Optimus and photo taken with a S3...
Next Galaxy S device(international version) will have Exynos Octa(5440 or 5410) or Dual(5250) with 5" FULL HD Super AMOLED Display. Why Samsung use another solution? I don't know any logical reason. Warming? Power consumption? Software based reasons? I don't think so. This is my two cents.
On the other hand, I think(I know, I used a lot -I Think-s)next Galaxy S device will have Exynos Octa, 2GB of ram, Mali T604 or T658 GPU, better camera lens(S3's sensor is good but lens is a bit deficient.), 2600mAh battery and also more durable chasis and screen. On software, Samsung will do wonders...
Edit: If I had gramatical mistakes, I want to say I'm sorry for that. Because Eng. is my 3rd language.
You obviously seem to have very little knowledge concerning technical product design. If it' physically impossible at the moment to manage the heating problems in this case, then in fact THIS IS a reason to kick the Octa processor for a Snapdragon...
|| Typed with my S3 or my Note 10.1 ||
I for one welcome Qualcomm in the international Samsung phones. Makes for a great if not superb aosp experience, doesn't it? Or am I being too naive?

Octa 5, which is also named as 5410, has 4+4 cores(Can be both enable at the same time, but Samsung doesnt provide 8-core mode because of power consumption ) and 544mp(maybe 533mhz 544MP3) GPU.
The good news is that 28nm HP makes it has much lower power consumption than 4412 when only the A7 cores are running.
But sadly it only get 24000+ scores in Antutu, lower than Tegra 4. What's worse, they both dont support Open GL 3.0!!!!!!

i find this hard to believe. For a start A15 cores are huge and hot and made for tablets unless clocked around 900mhz. Die area for an 8 core design is going to be way bigger than anything else on the market. Makes me think this isnt made for a phone.
Even Tegra 4 is made for tablets and the 4i is the phone variant with LTE built in. Since all of these are 28nm then there is no die shrink to help.
Snapdragon 600 looks to be a quad core with low power use and benchmarks very high. I doubt the solution is an A15 + A7 chip 8 core.
Where is the proof?
From 'various' source I have read (just google) the international will have the 8 core where the US version will have the snapdragon 600. These are mostly speculation with 'some' insider info. Won't be much longer until we know for sure...
Here is the maximun power list
4210→about 3w
4412→2w
8064→about 5w
tegra4→between 5w and 7w

Those preliminary numbers from Teg4 are nothing but Nvidia's famous marketing hype which they are far better at than meeting delivery schedules and self-declared performance claims. The benchmarks were from a cobbled together device that can't even be considered a reference platform. And there was no battery life optimization applied so, at the scores posted, a tablet would probably last three hours. Until their chips are in a device that's purchasable anything Nvidia's says or does should be taken with a grain of salt.
Or maybe Octa start from A7s to A15s, That it isnt higher than Intel Dual Cores makes no sense

What makes no sense?
Are you guys still fighting over Antutu/quadrant scores? Someone should kill those benchmarks. Waste of time and a disgrace in the name of benchmark tests. an antutu/quadrant score is just a score. you could literally smell a device and give better prediction about performance than those benchmarks could possibly give you.

26xxx points in Antutu? I think all these benchmark screenshots are fake. Tegra 4 gets more than 36xxx points while getting double the cpu integer and floating point performance of the exynos octa. Both chipsets are using 4 A15 cores. The only reason for such a bad score can be that there are only the A7 cores running instead of the A15 cores. So I think, the final S4 with Exynos Octa will get at least 30xxx points or more in Antutu.

I will be actually happy if the device runs most times on A7. If that means lower scores on some benchmarks, i will have no complaints. BTW, it's useless discussing about nvidia's marketing numbers. we can talk this to death after it's released in a device. i am sure we can also do a lot with benchmarks on a heatsinked test device.
the moment a whitepaper talks about antutu/quadrant scores, it starts to lose credibility.
BTW, antutu is a device benchmark tool, not a processor benchmark.
Finally freed from ARM Mali 400-MP4 ! Note 3 will probably also have this system. Now in Real Racing 3 in high details ~25-30 FPS so it's sad

Exynos 5420 vs Snapdragon 800

Hello guys,
I am a newbie and I would love if someone could technically compare this two socs.
I have already read the topics in the Galaxy S4 sections, but they are not updated.
I would like to hear from expert users what are the differences performance-wise.
I also have some questions:
1) Which version is the Octacore soc in the Note 3? 5420?
2) In practice I know that if I choose the Snap800 version I get LTE and 4k video recording; but what are the advantages of the Octa Core soc?
I know that the new Octa Core is 15-20% more powerful than the 5410, but so is the snap800 vs snap600. What is the best in raw performance between the two socs?
3) How does the new Adreno 330 compare against the new Mali T628 in terms of pure performance?
4) I read in the S4 forum that the Exynos 5410 is affected by a bug at the Corelink which caused some slow downs in the switch between A7 and A15 cores. Is the Exynos 5420 bugfree?
5) Which cpu is more future proof? I mean, aren't the A15 cores newer than the Snap's Krait 400?
6) Do we actually know if the 5420 supports the HMP (Heterogenius MultiProcessing)? If it does, will we have to wait for a software upgrade? (kernel?)
7) Which will be the best for battery consuption? Today I read that the Snap800 has an Envelope Tracking which should reduce the battery consuption caused by the mobile network by 30%, but I have read everywhere that the octa core is a bit more power efficient.
Sorry for all those questions and for my english. I study economy and I have just a little knowledge of these things

Thank you, so we have an answer for my 6th question, but are we sure that the video is referring to the 5420 soc and not to a future revision?
Edit: for the people who might be interest, I found this page in a forum in which there is a comparison between Adreno 330 vs Mali T628:
http://beyond3d.com/showthread.php?p=1768581 and in terms of pure performance the Adreno 330 seems to be around 25-26% better than the Mali. But both deliver more GFlops than the Tegra 4.
So at the moment:
Snap800:
+ Ultra HD 4k video recording;
+ Lte
+ Better GPU performance (aprox 26% more)
OctaCore 5420
+ HMP which should led to better battery life
+ New A15 platform
The only things left to understand is the raw power of the cpu (4 A15 @1.9ghz vs 4 Krait 400 @2.3ghz) and the efficiency (Octa's HMP vs Snap's Envelope Filter http://gigaom.com/2013/09/05/thanks...xy-note-3s-huge-screen-wont-kill-its-battery/ which is said to spare 25% of battery life! Is that believable??)
Any idea?

Don't look at GFLOPS number for 2 different architecture. Doesn't make much sense.
Just as an example, check numbers for Adreno 330 and T4. GFLOPS are quite different, but actual GFXbench numbers are very close.
Samsung says GPU is 2.3 times the Octa 1st-gen.
In SIGGRAPH event, they showed that it's 2x N10 numbers in a prototype. Just not the fps, but the overall demo looks much cleaner. So, I expect the number to be close to 2.5x-3x once it's optimized fully. You will notice that similar happened with T4 Shield. Over period of time, it has got much better result.
Another very nice demo of the T628 GPU:

1) Exynos 5420
4) Exynos 5410 had its CCI disabled-a hardware limitation, not a bug. The CCI is enabled in 5420
6) It does support all the 3 processing types. Latest linux kernel has the support.
The rest of your questions (3,5,7) need real life testing and user reaction and professional reviews as the two variants will finally be out.
BTW, the youtube video demonstrated another new variant- Exynos Octa-Pella which most probably will be called Exynos 5440 and will come later this year.

Thank you very much. I learn a lot everyday here on Xda!
If you want a more future-proof device, i'd go with an obvious (for me, at least) choice for the S800. You'll get the drivers and more dev support. Samsung doesn't release all the drivers - they never did and i don't think that's going to change for their Exynos chipsets.
Not to mention the fact that if you like CM/AOSP stuff, you better stick with the Snapdragon model

Regarding better dev support for the S800 a person ( most likely spam but I am unsure not being fully immersed in the tech world) on this site in the comment section claims vice versa, poor support from qualcomm and better support from samsung.
Seems I can't post the link because I am a new member. Can anyone confirm this?
Also on a side note, what size is the architecture of the A15 built on and the new Snapdragon 800 eg. 22nm process or 28 nm process?
Preliminary benchmarks!

Mediatek is also a popular chip set used by some large smatphone manufacturers and is been doing great contribution to developers since there were many mediatek devices with a number of custom rom have been developed. And it is too early to expect updates at the moment maybe later next month ?.
I'm still comparing this device with lenovo a7000+, asus zenfone max.
Maybe you can help me decide ?
Hopefully LG will give more updates to K10.?
I don't know abt Lenovo but I was choosing between this and Zenfone Max as well. What i like abt Max is its battery but honestly I do notnlike the UI of ASUS.? also the screen of K10 is better than Max's. When it comes to camera functionality, Max is better as it offers more modes though not sure abt the image quality. Is Max a midrange?

Definitely max is in mid range device. I agree with the elegant design of k10 i hope that the battery can be replace by higher capacity.. I'm planning to buy this phone on may.
Just received mine 2 days ago, bought on eBay from Taiwan (needed the 700mhz freq for Telstra woohoo).
Going by CPU-Z mine is an Octacore MediaTek MT6753 1.30GHz with GPU Mali - T720, 2GB ram.
For the price $249au - posted, its an awesome phone. I do agree with some reviews about the dullish screen, but its not a dealbreaker for me.
4G Telstra works fantastic, havent taken a lot of camera shots as the weather has been average here atm.
I did an AnTutu benchmark, 35516.
Antutu and CPU-Z pics below..
I've LTE version and the chipset is MT6753 with 2GB RAM. It comes with marshmallow. Couldn't find time to test battery life. I'll try to build CM13 as soon as possible. Mine model is K430TR.

Hi, I have 2 questions for people who have the DSY variant. Can you put 128gb micro sd on it? I read the spec on the net that it only supports up to 32 gb. Is it right?
Also, is this mediatek chipset faster than snapdragon 800? Can someone tell me as I am really new about this.
thanks ....

It says on GSMArena that it's expandable up to 32gb of SD card only but some users say it can read 64gb SD card. Not sure with the 128gb one.
I am using the Mediatek variant and I can say that it's very smooth. Not sure with the Snapdragon variant.
