Snapdragon for Galaxy?
Last year, Samsung and Qualcomm reached a multi-year partnership to bring Snapdragon chipsets to Galaxy devices. The S23 series is equipped with a fine-tuned variant of the original Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, and it could be continued further.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset is breaking performance records in the Android smartphone market. Especially for the Galaxy S23 series, Qualcomm brought overclocked CPU (3.36Ghz) and GPU to the “for Galaxy” variant for better performance and efficiency.
Europe could be the test field?
Last year, Samsung expanded the Snapdragon-based Galaxy S22 smartphones to more markets, compared to its conventional strategy. The proportion of Snapdragon reached 75 percent in the S22 lineup and Qualcomm became the sole supplier for the S23 lineup.
As the Exynos chipset is coming back to S flagships, the company may ship Exynos 2400 variants in Europe region or some markets. It’s going to be a bold move as the lineup may face sort of sales just because of the issue-pack reputation of Exynos.
Google Play Console database confirmed that Samsung’s Galaxy S23 FE will be available in two SoC variants. The company is about to introduce a handful of new Fan Edition products including a smartphone, two tablets, and a pair of wireless earbuds.
