Exynos 2400, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 run neck and neck when it comes to real-time gaming،
In the United States and China, the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ are powered by the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset used to drive all Galaxy S24 Ultra units in all markets. In all other regions, the Galaxy S24 And Galaxy S24+ are equipped with Samsung's Exynos 2400 SoC. Exynos chipsets have a reputation for having thermal issues and lagging behind Qualcomm's Snapdragon chips in performance.
Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S24 series now!
But with the Exynos 2400,
Samsung has finally created an application processor (AP) capable of supporting Qualcomm's latest AP, the
Snapdragon 8 generation 3. The Exynos 2400 has 10 cores and while it lagged slightly behind the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in benchmark testing, the results were pretty close. And when it comes to real game testing
produced by NL Tech, the difference between the two chipsets was as narrow as possible when running mobile games such as Fortnite, PUBG Mobile, Genshin Impact, and Mobile Legends. The Exynos 2400 SoC powering a
Galaxy S24+, and the
Snapdragon 8 generation 3 SoC powering a
Galaxy S24 Ultra, both offered stable frame rates of 90fps while playing PUBG Mobile in smooth graphics settings. Both chips managed to maintain a stable frame rate near 60fps while playing Genshin and both chips managed to run Fortnite at 90fps although the framerate dropped to around 70fps during combat . There were only two matches where
Newfoundland and Labrador Technology I saw a difference between the two chipsets.
Samsung Galaxy S24+ is powered by Exynos 2400 SoC in most markets
When playing Call of Duty: Mobile, the Snapdragon 8 generation 3 The chipset was capable of delivering a frame rate of 120fps throughout the game, compared to the 60fps framerate that the Exynos 2400 AP could achieve. However, in War Thunder, the Exynos 2400 topped the rankings. Snapdragon 8 generation 3 the former offering a frame rate of 100fps while the latter could only achieve a frame rate of 40fps.
Ray Tracing allows games to display enhanced lighting such as reflections, shadows, indirect lighting, etc. Since War Thunder uses Ray Tracing, we can assume from the frame rate differential that the Exynos 2400 Xclipse 940 GPU handles Ray Tracing better than the Adreno GPU used on the Snapdragon 8 generation 3.
You have to stop for a second to see that this real-time gaming test was carried out, as previously indicated, on an Exynos 2400 equipped
Galaxy S24+ and one
Snapdragon 8 generation 3-team
Galaxy S24 Ultra. The latter has a larger vapor chamber keeping the phone cooler. Despite this advantage, the Exynos 2400 AP held its own against
Snapdragon 8 generation 3 AP during this real-time
video game test.
