Samsung fans after years of “torture”: “It wasn’t that bad”

• On Twitter, a well-known Samsung leaker asked fans about their feelings about the Galaxy S23 chip change.
• He chooses drastic words and speaks of torture with the Exynos processor.
• The reactions are divided.

Samsung’s two-chip strategy has been a source of debate among fans for years. While in Europe the new Galaxy S appeared with Samsung’s Exynos chip, in other parts of the world it was sold with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. According to many experts, the Snapdragon variant was considered better. With the S23, Samsung is now using a Qualcomm chip worldwide.

The well-known leaker IceUniverse takes this as an opportunity to ask European Samsung fans about their experience with the S23 Ultra. He wants to know how they feel now after years of “torture with the Exynos chip”.

The tweet has already collected numerous, sometimes surprising, replies. Some fans find that the topic has “always been overstated”. In everyday life there have never been any problems with the Exynos chip.

So it’s not all that bad? Other fans see it differently and choose similarly drastic words about the chip change as IceUniverse. “I feel like I’ve been robbed of the real Samsung experience for years,” writes Holly.

Above all, the proponents of the chip change want to have noticed a significant improvement in battery life. The S23 Ultra with Snapdragon should no longer lose as many points on the battery indicator overnight in standby mode as compared to its predecessor with the Exynos chip.

The many reactions show how emotionally the topic is still being discussed. The chipset debate could flare up again soon. Samsung is said to be planning the return of the Exynos chip for the Galaxy S24.
