The next Samsung Galaxy S24 series is causing quite a stir in the rumor mill, and the latest leak adds a surprising twist to the processor range. While leaked Geekbench benchmarks indicate the Galaxy S24+ has an Exynos 2400 CPU, rumors say that Indian market receive a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 version only. This dual-processor enigma tells an intriguing tale of two chips.
Galaxy S24 + Geekbench Results Surface Online
The prominent benchmarking platform Geekbench has listed scores for the Samsung Galaxy S24+ (SM-S926B), with the Exynos 2400 processor. The device scored 2193 points in the single-core test and 6895 points in the multi-core test, which is rather impressive.
These results are a significant improvement over previous Exynos 2400 benchmarks, bringing it closer to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 performance level. This change may be viewed positively by those who have previously preferred Snapdragon variants due to worries regarding Exyno’s performance and thermal throttling.
Despite the Exynos 2400’s excellent growth, rumored benchmarks for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered Galaxy S24+ (SM-S926B) continue to place it first. The device got 2297 points in the single-core test and 7104 points in the multi-core test, demonstrating a small improvement over prior Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 scores and continuous optimization work.
The plot thickens when it comes to the Indian market. Rumours suggest both the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. This runs counter to the industry standard of offering Exynos devices in some regions and Snapdragon ones in others.
While the specific reason for this is unknown, it could represent Samsung’s commitment to addressing performance issues and offering Indian consumers with better experience. As the countdown to the formal launch on January 17th continues, many of the above mentioned questions remain.
Despite prior speculation that the Galaxy S24 would be the only model in the series to include an Exynos chip, it appears that the S24+ will also be included in the benchmarks. However, a report suggests that India will receive the Snapdragon version of the S24+, claiming merchants as sources, but we have yet to see benchmarks for it, and the phone has not yet appeared in any Indian certifications.
The appearance of Exynos 2400 benchmarks, combined with reports of a Snapdragon-only launch in India, adds another layer of excitement to the Galaxy S24 series. The rivalry between Snapdragon and Exynos is heating up, and the Galaxy S24 launch could be a popular smartphone series in this continuing conflict.
