Title: In a shock, the Galaxy Note 20 could be stuck with Samsung's underwhelming Exynos 990 SoC
Post by: Redaktion on July 11, 2020, 11:04:54
In a shock, a possibility has emerged that Samsung's Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra models could continue to be powered by Samsung's underwhelming Exynos 990 in markets outside the USA and China. XDA's Max Weinbach and Samsung insider @Universeice have indicated that this could be possible with Winebach confirming he has seen no references in the Samsung's source code to any Exynos 992 variant making its way into either device.

I don't care for Exynos at all, no matter how good it is. I'm from Europe and I will skip Samsung phones if they continue to ship them with Exynos SoCs. As I am currently using a Note9, I'm looking forward for Note20 as an upgrade. If it doesn't ship with 865+, I will go for the 8T Pro when it launches.

lmfao, is any more proof needed that Samsung treats its flagship users as stupid and gullible? BOYCOTT NOW! Lest your intelligence be insulted.

As I said before, the Note hasn't been a flagship phone since the Galaxy Note 4. It's just a Galaxy S variant now that gets released later to get rid of spare supply.

Interesting take, but until the foldables came along the Notes have indeed occupied the flagship pricing segment, if there is one. And following your argument...Samsung hasn't had a flagship for years, nor have most others in the industry.
