International units of Samsung Galaxy S21 could be more power efficient than the US variants

Published

Exynos 1380 Indian certification

Yesterday, we’ve reported about the benchmark listing of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S21+ device. The Snapdragon 875 powered smartphone has obtained higher points in comparison to the previously tested Exynos 2100 variant.

However, the benchmark result of the Exynos variant was nearly two months older than the recently listed Snapdragon model. Now, a new leaked benchmark result alleges that Samsung’s upcoming flagship processor, Exynos 2100 will beat Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 875 SoC.

Both, Samsung’s Exynos 2100 and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 875 chipsets will be manufactured using the 5nm process technology. It is also expected that each processor follows the same architecture, including one ARM Cortex-X1 core, three Cortex-A78 cores, and four Cortex-A55 cores.

Adding to this, both of the chips will be clocked differently and a reliable source, @UniverseIce claimed that Exynos 2100’s Cortex-X1 core will have a maximum frequency of 2.91Ghz.

It’s three Cortex-A78 cores will have a frequency of 2.81Ghz, and the four Cortex-A55 cores will be clocked at 2.21Ghz while the Snapdragon 875’s Cortex-A78 cores will be clocked at 2.42Ghz and Cortex-A55 cores will offer clock speeds of up to 1.8Ghz.

Moreover, @MaxWeinbach said that Exynos 2100 has a better energy efficiency ratio than previous generations of chips, so there may not be a need to worry about it will consume more power than the upcoming Snapdragon 875.

Leakster UniverseIce further claimed that the Exynos 2100 got more than 4000 points in the multi-core test while yesterday’s tested Snapdragon 875 received 3319.

It seems like the South Korean tech giant has made remarkable significant improvements to its Exynos 2100 SoC which can help Samsung’s Exynos chipset to leave Snapdragon behind for the first time.

Samsung’s One UI 7 update, rolling out this month, brings new features to Galaxy devices. However, Galaxy S24 and S25 users report significant battery drain issues, raising concerns about the update’s impact on performance.

April 2025 update brings smoother animations, enhanced AI tools, and improved security to Galaxy devices. While these changes aimed to elevate user experience, some Galaxy S24 Ultra and S25 Ultra owners noticed a sharp decline in battery life.

Robin noticed that the battery’s performance has sharply declined on his S25 Ultra after the April 2025 update. He figured out a battery life decline of approximately 20%, leading him to seek feedback on X to verify the difference.

Surprisingly, this sentiment echoes across social platforms, with users frustrated by the reduced performance.

A Galaxy S24 Ultra owner commented, “Before, I charged once per day. Now I’m charging two to three times per day”. Another Galaxy S24 user noted that while design and AI improved, battery life suffered significantly.

Similar complaints surfaced from other users. One S24 user stated, “After the One UI 7.0 update, the battery drains faster”. It seems the Galaxy S24 FE is also affected by a possible bug, with the user reporting “battery drains fast after the April update”.
