Apparently the Exynos990 is 10% slower and 100% more power hungry compared to Snapdra - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News

We did some simple test with specint06 (self compiled binary, cannot distribute, don't ask me for it)
865 score is about 34, power draw is 2w
990 score is 31, power draw about 4w.
Conclusion is that Samsung really fkup up hard this year and exynos 990 is a total disaster.
RIP all exynos S20 Users(including myself)

To clarify this does not translate to 50% worse battery life.
In fact the real world difference will be much smaller than that. However this does guarantee a significant and noticable difference in battery life and sustained performance.
According to our anecdotal experience S20+ exynos (which I am using now) can do ~5hrs sot in one day and 865 s20+(my friend is using) can do ~7 hrs
And attach simple screenshot of result as proof.

I am waiting for Gary explains to make a proper comparison. But thanks for the effort.

By the way, did you make a test like This between the s10 or note 10 exynos and Snapdragon version?

I need to see how it compares to my previous devices on my daily routine, I normally have a good idea then.
Lazy two devices have been decent for battery.
Think it's subjective tbh but we'll see.
Sidenote, the exynos variants tend to get hammered with updates fixing all the things that were broken on launch over the first year.
Kind of like apple in that way

I did not do specint comparison like this but I did gaming comparison between 9825/9820 and 855
Check these out

Install dolphin.
Open windwaker as a test.

I've been doing this for the past one week and the battery endurance of S20+ is worse than S10+, Note 9 and similar to S9+ in my usage pattern.

One of the Exynos 990 core use old A76 architecture. While Snapdragon 865 use newer A77 architecture. possibility of the slow and bad power consumption?

Can confirm. I was using a sd s10+ before switching to exynos S20+
In light use like Twitter, chrome, WhatsApp, s10+ practically does not heat up. However s20+ will get warm in a few minutes.
The experience degradation is worrying I would say.
What makes Samsung think it can get away with this kind of ****ty product?

A76 is not as good as A77 but not bad either.
It's the exynosM5 cores that are just bad.

I have SD s20U.
After 1.5 weeks, battery is on par with my s10+ (around 5 hrs SOT) over course of 24 hours.
Much much worse than N10+. I would end the day regularly with 40-60% battery left on note 10+. Whereas left with only 10-20% on S20U

If i look at comparisons i think this time the Exy will be similar for performance no real battery comparison yet.

A good read from reddit
- about the batterylife of S20/S20+/Ultra, endurance of the Exynos is way below the SD!

Most ppl with exynos were actually getting good or decent battery life .. so im not sure if we were checking the same thread. The difference isn't really much and with updates as always it will equalize.
But ofc this is no excuse for Samsung. I'd also rather have the snapdragon.. but hey at least we can root.

It was never "equalized" IMHO in the past, the drain was tried to be minimized in a way that to achieve it, even the performance was throttled in the Exynos in the past with updates in the S9's. It is also well known that the Exynos never performed like the SD counterpart in N9, S10's, N10's including overall battery endurance. In the S20's "that gap" might have been reduced but we'll see..
As for root, I don't need it at all.

Returning the Exynos and buying a Snapdragon model. It's absolutely trash. Barely lasts a full day on battery

Same could be said for s10 sd vs s10 exynos. Don't use the exynos chipset. It's been this way for generations. If you're outside of the US though, you might have to due to the GSM bands but I'm willing to bet a s20 sd would work fine in most situations.

Are you using 120hz? I mean that's a given to use much more power. It's essentially doubling your SOT if you think about it.

[Q] battery life comparison exynos vs snapdragon?

Are there any comparisons of the two cpus available on the s4 when it comes to battery life? Thats the only reason for me to try to get an exynos version if its shows to be better in that respect.
Yeah, that's a good question I want to know the answer too, there are many people having testing devices but they are too hungry about testing the damn processor and gpu instead testing properly the battery life. -_-

With wich cpu? Also no comparison to the other version mentioned here.
I'm not convinced, even with S3 you can spend all the battery juice in 3 hours if you want. To do a proper test you need to leave the device doing the same job like an Snapdragon S4 during the same time.

Octa has a longer battery life than SD600.
That's why samsung used 8 cores technology.
And by the way the 5inch HD screen saves power too for both version

Thaty what one hears, yes.
However I would like some actual test reports - for instance how long does the phone last for web browsing, for video playback and on standby?
I would like to see actual numbers.
As for the screen:
It is said to use 25% less power compared to previous amoled display generations. However that 25% value is something we have to trust samsung on I think, at least I have not seen any actual tests on power consuption of the display alone and it's probably not easy to test.
The way they have managed the display to consume less power is to use use phosphorescent instead of fluorescent green diodes, which use way less power. Until now they could not produce the green ones with an acceptable lifetime. The red ones have already been phosphorescent, and the blue one are still fluorescent since they are hardest to produce.

This. This so many times over.
So many people are parroting the "Exynos will have better battery life" thing but this really remains to be seen.
If the better battery life is in exchange for crippled A7 performance at inconvenient moments then it's useless. If better battery life isn't available for when you're using intensive apps then it's also useless.

Thinking of getting this tablet-could you post battery stats?

Hi guys.
I'm making a decision between this and the Samsung galaxy tab s 10.5 .
It seems that the battery life on the sony is actually much better than the samsung despite the samsung having a greater capacity. Could somebody please post up some stats from the real world usage of the sony? I'm thinking total screen on time, total battery life, time between charges.
Thanks!

I will not have less than 5% battery till 2 days or so. But I can tell you for now that watching movies, a full charge last 11 hours.
Enviado desde mi SGP512 mediante Tapatalk
Look in the tweak for more battery time thread a few down from this one. I posted mine in detail.
Considering the capacity of the battery, the battery life is outstanding. For example when the tablet is idle it uses virtually no battery, games and movies will see it drop but not at a fast rate, it would defo see you through a day of hard labour. This is why sony stuck with the quad core, and the very beautiful screen. Having looked at the samsung galaxy s with their superior resolution and octa core, Im glad I went with sony, as looking at the threads over on xda people are not happy with battery life, and they are complaining about lag in games, I guess the octa core era has not been totally settled
Hell. 4 cores is more than you need really! Especially in Android. It's not even really used fully in a much more complex os like windows!
BS. 4 cores is saying nothing about the capability of a device.
There are plenty of laggy, slow phones and tablets with 4 cores out there.
I think that the number of cores is less important than the actual day-to-day handling of a device.
I am trying to make a decision between the two best devices here, and the Samsung has double the number of cores. This is irrelvent if software and hardware implementation means a slower actual experience than a device with half the processor cores.
Or indeed a longer-lasting device with a ~30% smaller battery capacity.
I've seen the battery thread mentioned in the reply above- thanks for that.
Can anyone else post their screen-on time or general impressions of battery duration?
Thanks

My point wasn't that because a device has 4 cores it must be good. I have two Rockchip 4 core devices that are not fast! My point was that octa core is complete overkill as even with 4 cores they are barely ever all used.
On an additional note: I know that the point of the Samsung octa cores is that they can run on the lower freq cores for low Intensity processes for improved battery life, but our 2.3ghz cores can also run at a lower speed when more is not needed and although this may be slightly less efficient than the Samsung 1.3ghz cores, I would still choose the Sony any day on cpu alone!

Battery Life, SOT

Hey guys! So the Honor 8 Pro has launched in India at an incredible price.
So I am tempted to buy one.
But all am worried about is the battery life.
There are mixed reviews. Some say it is good some say it is average.
Please the Pro owners can you please share some SOTs and comment about how it lasts.?
It's the only thing I am worried about otherwise the phone is extremely compelling.
Thank You!
For Indian reviews had to wait for a little .
but i recommend you just go for it,the best deal ever by honor in india

from whatever i heard, battery life is excellent
and also, honor 8pro is a complete package, processing power is much greater than Snapdragon 821.. this will be the best ever bang for your buck.. just go for it
Sot is around 4h 30 min with very heavy use, otherwise it is around 5h 30 min, I've had like 6h 30min too but it all depends what you are doing with the screen on. I Have 2 email accounts syncing, weather widget, WhatsApp etc. on, and no extra optimization apart from the screen resolution lowering on low battery. Seems the battery optimization is pretty good because you can drain this beast down to 1-2% without having to worry about the phone shutting down at 5% or so. Just remember that the flash is turned of at under 15%
I've been playing Heartstone (on cellular) with the 8 Pro and it doesn't drain the battery any more then say a video, less even.
Summa summarum, the battery life is good, not stellar, not average, not bad, good (best on 2k screen I think).

How is the exynos variant doing after a year of updates?

I jumped on the s10 plus bandwagon right away last year, and since im from germany had to do with the exynos variant. There were quite a few compromises back then. Battery life, standby, performance and camera quality were not up to par with the snapdragon variant. I had a few smartphones since then. Switched sides with the xs max and the 11 pro max, but since i cant quite cope with ios back to android i went. The Pixels are fine, the 4 XL is not that bad as everyone wants us to believe. I am using a 3a XL at the moment, and monthly updates are really something. But samsung came a long way in this regard.
I had a G9750 S10 plus (the snapdragon Hong Kong Variant), and was very fond of it! I really do regret selling it. I just may get the same model again. The S 20 will be too expensive, and i don't feel the need for the features. Even the 3aXL with its 670 Snapdragon is fast enough for me. I miss the samsung features (remappable bixby button was very handy).
The G9750 does not get updates in the same timely fashion as the exynos variant though. That bugs me a little. I won't root, but using adb is not a problem. Im using naptime to enforce doze, and standby time was instantly better on all of my android devices. Is this going to work on the exynos version as well? So much that i could negate the standby problem? How is the camera in the meantime? I don't need gcam. The G9750 took great pictures imho. Performance differences wont bother me, but having a good battery is a must. The 11 pro max was killer in this regard, as is the 3a XL.
I'll probably will get the G9750 again, but having no warranty over here is also something i have to take into consideration.
Or should i get the N9750 (the snapdragon Hong Kong version of the note 10 plus)?? Price difference would be about 150 €, and i would get more ram, faster storage and the s-pen. These really are first world problems...
The reason i m choosing the hong kong version is, that voice over lte and wifi calling work as intended with my provider here in germany (O2).
Thanks for any insight!
Let me shorten the question. For those of you using the exynos S10 since launch. Did it get better (standby, normal battery drain) or is it the same?

Thanks for the reply. Are you seeing bad standby drain, as reported by so many? I was using the exynos version for three months last year, and standby drain was noticable. I was getting through the day though. Oh well. I'll hang on to my 3a XL for a while and look at whats coming our way in the next few months.

No i lose about 6% over 9 hours, getting a solid 9 hours SOT with 20 hours standby. Even today i watched a 1hr downloaded video and 1 hr 40min stream from Netflix still managed 7hr SOT and 10hrs Standby, with some Facebook and game play.
Thanks again for the reply. Everyone talks about the pixel phones being the greatest and sure they are good, but there are so many things i miss. Bixby routines, the remapable bixby button, expandable storage, greater base storage. Logic dictates i wait for a few months until the 20 series drops in price or if it is even worth it.
My phone ia still great till now

I only heard that the snapdragon version might take better pictures according to some people

Official S20+ Exynos Battery Life Thread

Post your Battery usage here. Lets see what we get with these new devices.
Is Bad battery...
Can't say I'm very impressed so far, I switched from a snapdragon s10 plus. Stand by battery drain was never a problem on the s10. I would finish the day with at least 50% battery left. Less than 3 hours screen time and I'm at 40%. And that's running at 60 fps, 1080p. Snapdragon was so much more efficient for me.

So far, not too impressed either, getting 5.5 hours of screen on time, with no video watching or gaming. Literally bit of instagram, whatsapp, messenger, camera and spotify. This is at 120hz FHD+.
This will honestly be my my ''normal usage'' but still having removed it from charge at 9.30am and after 12 hours on 20% is a bit sad to some point, specially after those youtube videos with 6.5 hours of screen on time playing games and and filming videos and what not... Hopefully they will get a fix for it, this is UK version with the (not so lovely) Exynos...
Coming from an LG G6 lets say battery wise Im having same performance
For me 6 hours with 120hz, that literally destroys the battery, switching back to 60hz you get 1 - 2 hours more....watching youtube is no issue, but as soon as you get to any scrolling or
multitasking it all goes away.. especially with that 120hz, also it's not very efficient in standby, you can go to sleep with 100 percent and wake up with 93 or something like that..
Hopefully they'll get an update
Not awesome battery life, if I wasn't careful I need to charge twice a day
50% left, 2h33 min screen on. I disconnected charger at 12am, woke up at 7am. Lost 5% during the night with 4g on. I was playing a lot today. Screen at 120hz
It's so unbelievable bad... Damn :/
I'm glad i.ordered the Snapdragon version
This is always the case when buying Samsung flagships early. An update comes out a few months after to address the issue.
Hmm, I have to agree with you. Upon further use, I don't think stand by drain is the issue. It seems to be more app optimisation. Have to give it some time for developers to optimise their apps for this processor.

Don't get me wrong I totally agree with you. There is even speculation that exynos doesn't get the same Sony sensors for the camera. Instead we get Samsung made one's. Totally not cool for sure. I imported a snapdragon s10 last year and it was amazing for battery life profomance. But honestly, I can fully charge this phone in just over an hour. So to say that the shorter battery life is a major problem is just not true imo.

Samsung Pay, VoLTE, Wi-Fi calling, Google pay... what all in these worked? - doubtful..

I understand, but I haven't come even close to needing to charge the phone during the day yet. I'd say I'm losing about 10 to 15% more battery then I did on the s10 so all good for now.

Yes, "usage pattern". I'm charging twice a day with the +, something that I did years back..
This is the only complaint i have so far, battery life. It is not disturbingly awful, but I usually have to charge it in the late afternoon, so I dont run out of juice in the evening (I am getting 3.5 - 4 hours of screen time). Situation is even less annoying since It charges really fast. I am running optimised battery plan, bluetooth, wifi, data on. Other than that it is a beast, I am fully enjoying android freedom over my iphone X. Battery will probably improve with updates though.
First and first full charge, 120hz all time. Let's see next days.
