Transcript
- 0:00so the big news that we got today is good news
- 0:05so i mentioned what a week or two ago that samsung
- 0:11is still trying to figure out still trying to
- 0:14determine what cpus to put in what devices in
- 0:19what regions around the world if you're unfamiliar
- 0:21samsung been doing this for years do a cpu split
- 0:26right Some devices will use the latest and greatest
- 0:30Qualcomm Snapdragon chip. Some devices will use
- 0:34the latest and greatest Samsung Exynos chip.
- 0:37And some countries are, you know, steadily on
- 0:43the Snapdragon chip train. And some countries
- 0:48have been getting nothing but Exynos CPUs throughout
- 0:51the years. Probably not going to be happy customers.
- 0:57Look, I think the Exynos 2700 this year is going
- 1:00to be pretty good, but I don't want to risk it.
- 1:02I don't want to risk it. Now, if you're in the
- 1:04United States like I am, you don't have to sweat
- 1:07it. You're getting Snapdragon. So on the S27
- 1:12Ultra, the upcoming S27 Ultra, Samsung is putting
- 1:16Qualcomm Snapdragon chips in the S27 Ultra worldwide.
- 1:24worldwide so that's good news if you're potentially
- 1:28thinking about getting this phone because just
- 1:31imagine what if you're in india what if you're
- 1:34in one of these asian countries um hell even
- 1:38europe parts of europe get exynos that would
- 1:42blow i would i would not be happy because every
- 1:46each and every year i don't know what what is
- 1:49this chip gonna suck is it gonna overheat is
- 1:51it gonna perform well usually with snapdragon
- 1:55you don't have to worry about that right i had
- 1:59very few times where i purchased a phone with
- 2:02a snapdragon chip and i regret buying the phone
- 2:05because of the chip right and it's the opposite
- 2:07for samsung exynos cpus where most of the time
- 2:11i've used an exynos chip i regret buying the
- 2:14phone um but if you're eyeing this s27 ultra
- 2:18you can take a side relief because you are getting
- 2:23the latest and greatest qualcomm snapdragon 8
- 2:26elite extreme gen 6 stupid name what about the
- 2:32pro not so fast so samsung is still debating
- 2:38on what countries to put what cpus in the pro
- 2:42the the s27 pro is going to be a smaller flagship
- 2:46ultra premium flagship if you're in the united
- 2:50states And you want to get an S27 Pro. Another
- 2:55sigh of relief because we here in the States
- 2:58are getting the Snapdragon variant. That is confirmed.
- 3:02So S27 Ultra, all Snapdragon all around the world.
- 3:06S27 Pro, Snapdragon confirmed in the United States.
- 3:11They will get Axanos variants in other regions
- 3:15of the world. So I know some of y 'all are on
- 3:19pins and needles. in regards to this s27 pro
- 3:23um depending on where you live now i think this
- 3:28samsung axios 2700 chip i honestly think look
- 3:33there's always going to be skepticism with me
- 3:35and i know with y 'all too when it comes to these
- 3:37axios chips because again i've had a bad experience
- 3:40with them but you know see i said this last year
- 3:45i'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt
- 3:48and i think they're on to something this year
- 3:51i said that before and i'm i'm really trying
- 3:55to restrain myself from saying that now because
- 3:58are they onto something or are they on to just
- 4:02shitty cpus right like i think samsung's gonna
- 4:06need a track record of at least maybe three years
- 4:11three to four years of manufacturing and producing
- 4:15really good cpus before at least for me, before
- 4:20I can like feel comfortable and not really second
- 4:23guess what they're doing with these CPUs. And
- 4:26if you're unfamiliar, Samsung has their own CPU
- 4:30and they would love to have all their devices,
- 4:33all their phones, all their tablets using their
- 4:37own CPUs like Apple, like Google, like Xiaomi
- 4:40is trying to do, right? That's the grand plan.
- 4:43That's the master plan here at work, but it's
- 4:46just not. It's just not catching on for Samsung.
- 4:49A lot of the times they have issues with production
- 4:52with their yield rate, meaning the chips that
- 4:56actually go through the production line, how
- 4:59many get to the very end, how many actually get
- 5:01shipped off and or put in phones has been below
- 5:0470%, which is not good. And the ones that they
- 5:09do ship off and put in devices, they have a history
- 5:13of overheating. So thermal management, thermal
- 5:16throttling is really bad. So it's just a real
- 5:19rocky road for them. And again, it's probably
- 5:23going to take a few years of good CPUs before
- 5:27I stop second guessing them. So if you want an
- 5:32S27 Ultra, you're in the clear, you're getting
- 5:34Snapdragon. I have all the confidence in the
- 5:37world in Qualcomm when it comes to this new Snapdragon
- 5:39chip. They've earned that. They've earned it
- 5:44the hard way by producing a phenomenal product.
- 5:48for their customers right in these cpus their
- 5:53customers being samsung oneplus oppo all that
- 5:56good stuff um but if you want an s27 pro yeah
- 6:02you might you might think again and once these
- 6:05do launch if you are in one of the regions that
- 6:08let's say you want an s27 pro let's just throw
- 6:11out there for example i don't know if this is
- 6:13getting exynos i'm just using it for example
- 6:16say you live in germany and you want to get an
- 6:19s27 pro and you're like damn man these s27 pros
- 6:24i want a small flagship but freaking samsung's
- 6:28putting this stupid exynos cpu in here you know
- 6:32and let's say the united states is getting the
- 6:37snapdragon variant in the s27 pro here's what
- 6:41i would do if i was in germany i would probably
- 6:44try to find an s27 pro that has a Snapdragon
- 6:49chip in it. Like go to eBay. I know, I know it
- 6:53sounds, look, I don't know how the average German
- 6:57purchases their phones. Like here in the United
- 7:00States, there's some people that get them from
- 7:03the manufacturer, like Samsung's website. You
- 7:05have trade -in deals that knocks a lot of money
- 7:07off of these devices. You go to one of these
- 7:09carriers, AT &T, T -Mobile, Verizon, shit, they'll
- 7:12give them away for free, right? Sort of. you
- 7:16know i don't know how they do it in germany but
- 7:19going to a third -party retail site like ebay
- 7:23the only disadvantage to that is they don't have
- 7:26these trade -in deals they don't give them away
- 7:28for free essentially right so you're gonna have
- 7:33to be showing out a little more money so it's
- 7:35probably easier said than done but i don't know
- 7:39if i would feel comfortable at this point buying
- 7:43an exynos 2700 cpu uh in the s27 pro if you're
- 7:50living in one of those regions it might be best
- 7:52to wait when these do become available for sale
- 7:55you might want to wait a month honestly and let
- 7:59the first wave because with these with these
- 8:02youtubers a lot of times when these devices just
- 8:05like really stupid with these google books when
- 8:08these are released you get all these creators
- 8:10that get invited to these events and they just
- 8:14gosh all oh the google book here and the ace
- 8:18are here but they don't tell you oh they have
- 8:21a boot loop issue or damn it doesn't work if
- 8:25you don't have android 17 on your phone like
- 8:28you don't hear that stuff until like a week or
- 8:30two later right until like people start actually
- 8:32getting them getting them and start using them
- 8:35real people like you and i so it might be worth
- 8:38your time worth your weight wait a week or two
- 8:42and let let these again if you're in germany
- 8:45let these s27 pros get delivered to people in
- 8:49and around your area maybe observe some online
- 8:52forums some youtube channels of the s27 pro with
- 8:56the exynos cpu and see how people like it right
- 8:59wait for real reviews not these youtubers that
- 9:03don't say anything bad about these products just
- 9:06so they can keep getting invited to these launch
- 9:09events i think that's the dumbest thing in the
- 9:11world it's probably why i don't get invited to
- 9:13many but um that's what i would do if i were
- 9:17you again i don't think that's going to be bad
- 9:19i just think the better option is the snapdragon
- 9:22variant so for the s27 and s27 plus i've heard
- 9:26i've heard samsung is going to do all exynos
- 9:302700 cpus in all of the s27 and s27 plus Yikes.
- 9:36Not going to sell many of those. And that's going
- 9:41to be around the world. So S27 and S27 Plus are
- 9:44getting the Exynos CPUs around the world. S27
- 9:48Pro is getting split Snapdragon, split Exynos,
- 9:53depending on where you live. In the U .S., you're
- 9:55getting Snapdragon in the S27 Pro. And then in
- 9:59the S27 Ultra, they're getting Snapdragon all
- 10:04around the world. So at least you have a little
- 10:11bit of information and you can kind of move forward
- 10:13with that. But stay tuned to the channel because
- 10:16once we find out what countries are getting the
- 10:21Snapdragon variants and what countries are getting
- 10:23the Exynos variants, I'll have a list here and
- 10:26I'll let everybody know as soon as I get the
- 10:29information. We will review and see what countries
- 10:32are getting what CPUs. But again, S27 Pro in
- 10:36America is getting the Snapdragon CPU and S27
- 10:39Ultra worldwide is getting the Snapdragon CPU.
