Samsung may be bringing Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1-powered Galaxy S22 models to more markets this year compared to previous launches.
According to tipster @dohyun854, markets in South East Asia including Singapore will be getting the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 variant while Exynos 2200-powered models will be coming to Europe, West Asia, Middle East Asia, and Africa. Below's the purported list of Galaxy S22 processors by region:
- Europe: Exynos
- North America: Snapdragon
- South America: Snapdragon 4
- East Asia: Snapdragon
- South East Asia/Oceania: Snapdragon
- West Asia: Exynos & Snapdragon
- Middle East Asia: Exynos & Snapdragon
- Africa: Exynos & Snapdragon
With the exception of the Galaxy S21 FE, consumers in Singapore have always been getting the Exynos variant of the Galaxy S flagship phones. While there are a group of supporters for Exynos chipsets, most consumers prefer Qualcomm's offering as it is seen as more power-efficient and superior.
However, the Exynos 2200 is a force to be reckoned with; it usses Xclipse GPU which is based on AMD RDNA 2 architecture. It has advanced features such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing and variable-rate shading, which greatly enhance its graphics performance.
Samsung will be unveiling the Galaxy S22 lineup next month. Until then, take every rumour with a pinch of salt!
