Why the fuck do normies have a huge-ass hard-on for it? Why the fuck are they so defensive about it? Why the fuck are they taking everything Exynos related so fucking personal?
I genuinely don't get it. There were pre-release benchmarks for it - geekbench (the popularity of which I also can't fucking comprehend when it claims iphones have faster CPUs than enterprise-level PCs) where it scored better than Snapdragon and real-world performance something, where it scored worse in every single category available. All of that was prior to the actual phones being released as well as Samsung supposedly "throttling Exynos to match Snapdragon". After the phones were released, every single test and benchmark had repeated the very same results. And the comment section to every single fucking test and benchmark is full of people screaming "EXYNOS IS THE BEST!" and "EXYNOS WOULD'VE WON IF IT WASN'T FOR SAMSUNG THROTTLING IT!"
As it stands now, literally the only thing Exynos does better than the Snapdragon variant is passing the fucking geekbench. Why does it have a literal cult following it? What the hell? What am I missing here? Is it just retarded 'murican kids who had to go through a hassle of getting their hands on the Exynos variant from abroad instead of just buying readily available in US Snapdragon, so now they are asshurt after realizing they had wasted their efforts, time, and money to get an inferior version so they are overcompensating? Explain this shit to me, Jow Forums.
One benefit to the Exynos variant is the unlocked bootloader. The ROM community for Exynos Galaxy phones is much larger than the community for the Snapdragon variants.

Exynos S9 literally has LineageOS already. Project Treble really expedites the process of building custom ROMs and honesty, it should have been something that Google should have enforced earlier. Even obscure Chinkphones with god awful MediaTek processors are getting the taste of stock Android.
Nathaniel Torres
Is this some sort of a retarded copypasta?
Wyatt Flores
Exynos is Samsung designed silicon...so similar to iOS/A-series...Samsung can optimize their software for the chipset, as well as build in features they otherwise cannot do/use with Snapdragon chips.
Chase Wilson
Literally the opposite is true
Logan Stewart
>The ROM community for Exynos Galaxy phones is much larger than the community for the Snapdragon variants. lol no
Leo Walker
Still, why are people so personally invested in Exynos? They are defending it like it's their child or something.
Ethan Rogers
Exynos is faster than snapdragon and has better RAM management
John Parker
See this retard? Who can explain the existence of this retard to me? Why are there people white-knighting fucking Exynos of all things?
Nicholas Lewis
Because it's true.
Tyler Hall
But it is factually wrong, user. Exynos performs worse than Snapdragon in everything but geekbench. I am not trying to start an argument here - I'm asking "why people are making a cult out of Exynos?"
Kayden Scott
Because retards actually believe that those shit benchmarks mean anything, when in real life usage the snapdragon shits on the exynos
Ryder Flores
People are stupid and misinformed. Applel fags are all raving about AI and thei bionic chip like its the next coming of christ, samsung faggot like their exynos because it was made and designed by samsung so its somehow better, its only sold in south korea and surely samsung would only keep best parts for itself and home market. Its basicly like this, people are retarded and have no clue how cpus works. The next gen quantum bionic AI chip with 300 cores(tm) will likely have at nax 30% better score on a benchmark
Hudson Watson
Most likely it's a poojet or gook. They think buying brands makes them superior to other people and get post purchase rationalization like a mfer
Joseph Bailey
>it wins in benchmarks but they don't count
It's sold pretty much everywhere except the US
you dumb cunts are literally defending a monopolistic trash chip maker
they haven't done anything good since the snap 800 and the only reason exynos isn't in the US is their patents and CDMA
Charles Ramirez
>I have no idea how benchmarks work >I just parrot the opinions of retards as I am a retard myself you should seriously consider suicide
It wins in a single specific benchmark which Linus calls "shit". It loses in all the other benchmarks. It loses in every single attempt of side-by-side real-use comparison. And no, it isn't sold "everywhere except US".
Grayson Martinez
stay buttblasted, americans. Samsung locks down the bootloader on Snapdragon phones so hard for no reason at all, which mostly means no custom kernels and most ROMs are stock based until a shitty bootloader hack (like safestrap) comes out.

that's all that gets Snapdragon

Lol all these salty american's who can't get the exynos so now have to blindly defend Qualcomm like they're the best chips you can get

Benjamin Garcia
You know you can buy an international version in the US right? How retarded do you have to be to not realize this?
Jose Myers
>China, USA, Japan China and Japan are huge markets on their own. Latin America also gets Snapdragon. The point stands - it isn't "everyone but US".
Camden Fisher

Isaiah Wilson
Samsung being completely retarded at configuring DVFS settings isn't a new thing, it's been happening forever.
The usual solution was to buy an LG and flash Cyanogenmod on it, but with LG's hardware quality in the toilet, most people are stuck with Samsung and their shitty """Android""" fork.
Jordan Wilson
Literally the opposite
Cooper Young
No one is praising Qualcomm, you retard. I'm asking why all the Exynos fags are so fucking buttblasted about it. What's the fucking reason for it?
Ryan Young
>Lol all these salty american's who can't get the exynos so now have to blindly defend Qualcomm like they're the best chips you can get "Can't" is strong word to use since there's nothing stopping an american, or anyone from any other country with internet acces from buying a phone with an "exynos" cpu.
Daniel Collins
Because there's no possible way an American processor could be better KOREA STRONK
Xavier Taylor
because it'sa good cpu and isn't made by Qualcomm
except it doesn't support all LTE bands and has no CDMA to work on verizon/sprint and like 50 other resellers

>Verizon Opinion invalidated.
>N910C Sorry user, that phone sucked, and LineageOS 14.1 is still broken on it. The Note 3 got way better ROM support...
Christian Allen
They need to defend their parents credit card bill.
Exynos fags are part of samsung's meme machine. That cartel is literally more powerful than koreas president, and shadier than the chinese triad. I personally don't buy anything made by samsung at all, so it doesn't matter to me which cpu they use. >except it doesn't support all LTE bands and has no CDMA to work on verizon/sprint and like 50 other resellers Most phones sold in north america don't support most lte frequencies, so it should be fine if they support the important ones, no? And verizon/sprint are cdma, but att, and tmobile are gsm, and gsm phones sell pretty well in the US without being cdma compatible.
Alexander Howard
I know But then again my batteri is absolutely destroyed, I've replaced it once but as it is right now any extensive power draw (Such as someone calling me or using the screen while browsing the web or some shit) will cause it to drop reception, crash and then reboot I've been thinking of buying a new battery but I can't find anywhere that still sells anker ones and I don't fucking trust anyone claiming to sell originals, the only third party ones anyone has ever recommended have been anker If anyone has any Note 4 battery recommendations I would be very grateful
Jordan Barnes
I have the same option in my Lenovo/One plus Snapdragon phones, so why Samsung leaves that option out of their Snapdragon stuff is beyond me.
Oliver Morris
Exynos 9810 in the S9 is bretty slow. Anandtech did a very throughout in depth review and even showed how easily it would be to make it more performant. Sadly Samsung did not answer and there is no remedy in sight. If you dont want a last-year-performance phone for a current-year-price stay far away from samsung Galaxy s9!
>iphones have faster CPUs than enterprise-level PCs They can be faster without processing as much in a given timespan, ya know ;)
Jayden Reyes
>Exynos performs worse than Snapdragon in everything but geekbench. Not quite, there is a random test where the Exynos smokes the Snapdragon, but no one knows why.
No one knows why the Exynos is performing so bad in application tests. The possibility is there that Samsung needs to implement some driver fixes.
Nathan Kelly
>OP made thread expecting people to be convinced by him begging the question. >OP gets BTFO instead

Andrew Martinez
Didn't anandtech determine it to be slow ramping up of clock speeds?
Tyler Jackson
How do I unlock bootloader for my Samsung s7 snapdragon (us)? Pls help!
Gabriel Cook
>OP makes the thread hoping to get the answer >Gets his point undisputedly proven by retards flooding the thread, yet gets no answer. Thanks for stroking my ego - nice to see I was perfectly correct, bur I really want to see the answer to the initial question.
Xavier Walker
So, are burgers really assmad they preordered an inferior and limited variant from abroad?
