But real use cases will be important

It seems that Samsung Galaxy S24 smartphones based on SoC Exynos 2400 will still be. Initially, there were only various rumors about this, but now the test results began to appear. For example, in the Geekbench test, the Xclipse 940 graphics core is ahead of the Adreno 750 in the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3: 13,858 vs 12,946 points! By comparison, the Exynos 2200 scores only about 9,000 points.

The processor part of the Exynos 2400 is also impressive, which is ahead of the Exynos 2200 in Geekbench by 31%. SoC scores 1711 and 6967 points in single-threaded and multi-threaded modes, respectively. If we take the same Apple A16 Bionic for comparison, it scores approximately 1870 and 5300 points.

Of course, you need to consider, firstly, that the release of Exynos 2400 is still far away. Secondly, it is still impossible to say for sure that Samsung will decide to release this platform. Thirdly, Exynos 2200 also performs well in a number of benchmarks, but problems occur in real use cases.

The information was shared by an OreXda insider, who previously announced the formation of the Samsung MX department before the official announcement of the company.
