That’s how the Exynos 2200 performs better on the Galaxy S23 FE than on the Galaxy S22 Ultra

What’s cooler than being cool? Being ultra cool, apparently, because it gives you a performance boost – at least when we’re talking about phones.

When it became known that Samsung would power the non-US variant of the Galaxy S23 FE with a two-year-old Exynos processor, concerns about the phone’s performance arose. As you know, Samsung integrates different chips into the same phone model, depending on where the devices are sold. US buyers get the Qualcomm chip.

Some have noted that the Exynos 2200 chipset inside the Galaxy S23 FE works better than on the Galaxy S22 Ultra, and there’s a reason for that.

A teardown video, courtesy of Comments on PBK shows how and why the Exynos 2200 inside the Galaxy S23 FE works better.

The secret to improving performance lies in Galaxy S23 FE have a huge vapor chamber cooling system – “the largest ever on Samsung phones”, SamMobile notes.The large vapor chamber cooling system keeps temperatures in check, which is why it works better and doesn’t choke as much as on the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra. The chipset performs better when it is better cooled.

During the disassembly part of the process, 20 Philips screws need to be unscrewed before the back plate of the phone can be removed. There are a few ribbon connectors, a charging coil and an NFC antenna to remove – you can then easily remove the battery using the pull tab. All major components including chipset, RAM, storage, sensors and cameras are connected to the main board.

THE Galaxy S23 FE received a fairly respectable repairability rating of 8.5/10.
