While not officially confirmed, the prevailing expectations for the Galaxy S24 Ultra suggest its exclusive use of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, while the Galaxy S24 and S24+ are anticipated to deploy the Exynos 2400 in most regions. Initial comparisons between these two chips indicated that the Qualcomm variant outpaced the Samsung counterpart in terms of CPU performance.
Recent Geekbench results, however, reveal a noteworthy development, suggesting that the Exynos is narrowing the performance gap. Early results from the Galaxy S24+ with Exynos 2400 and the Galaxy S24 Ultra with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 showed the Snapdragon maintaining a lead. However, in the latest assessments, the gap has diminished, reducing from 8% to 5% in single-core tests and from 4% to 3% in multi-core tests.
With the unveiling of the phones scheduled for the 17th, early buyers can anticipate having a Galaxy S24 in their hands by the end of the month. Samsung typically initiates a two-week pre-order period following the Unpacked event. While comprehensive hardware details for the chipsets are yet to be fully disclosed, current information from both official and unofficial sources provides a glimpse into the CPU clusters of these chips.
