The Exynos 2400 will be Samsung’s next self-made SoC for mobile devices. Destined for the high-end, the first filtered data that comes to us from results they are promising. If confirmed, Samsung could catch up on performance against the competition and also against the developments of partners like Qualcomm.
As you know, Samsung designs and manufactures its own mobile chipsets with the Exynos family. A strategy used by other manufacturers with Apple as the greatest exponent. Faced with them, a global manufacturer like Qualcomm sells its developments to anyone who licenses them. Samsung is one of them and combines them with its own even in the same product line as has happened with its flagship series, the Galaxy S. Compared, the Exynos have always been below Qualcomm’s developments in performance and very far. from those of Apple.
The results that come to us from the Geekbench 5 benchmark, tell us about an average of 1530 points working with a single core and maximum peaks of 1711. Being an advance compared to previous Samsung SoCs, they are still below the Apple Bionic A16.
Much better in multicore with the 10 cores that the Exynos 2400 is believed to have, where it averages 6,210 points and peaks of 6,967. Not bad at all considering that would outperform on multicore by 31% the results obtained by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, the most powerful of Qualcomm at present, and also on Apple’s A16.
Another even more interesting point would be the integrated graphics, Xclipse 940, more performing than the Adreno 750 used by Qualcomm. In this field Samsung can stand out thanks to its alliance with AMD and the base that would provide a Radeon with four computing units, 256 shaders, 16 texturing units, 8 raster units and two cores to accelerate ray tracing.
Promising results, but little else. There is no confirmation of the veracity of the information and even if we did, you know that the synthetic tests they don’t say everything about performance In the real world. In addition, it is believed that Samsung will not have this Exynos 2400 available until 2024 and by then both Apple and Qualcomm will have already released other developments with more performance than the current ones.
It is believed that Samsung wants to have its new SoC available for the launch of the Galaxy S24, but it is not clear if it will use it in all versions of the mobile. Qualcomm can bring out a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, re-mark the ground, and force Samsung to keep using it. Wait and see.
