Samsung has caused confusion about the 4g support, the samsung Galaxy S4. The variant with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor would initially the 4g version. The Galaxy S4 with its own processor Samsung supports, however, also 4g, so says Samsung’s chipdivisie.
The Exynos 5 Octa, the processor of the Galaxy S4 in many Asian and Eastern European countries, supports 4g on all twenty frequency bands, so says Samsung’s chipdivisie on Twitter. This would the octacore variant of the Galaxy S4 fit for Dutch, but also North American 4g networks.
The netherlands and many other western countries, however, the quadcore version of the Galaxy S4, with a Snapdragon 600 processor from Qualcomm and 4g five frequency bands. The confirmation that the Exynos processor, 4g on board, the rumor that Samsung is not enough Exynos processors can and that’s why Qualcomm chips in various variants put more likely.
It is still unclear whether there is any difference in speed or battery life is noticeable between the two versions. First results of benchmarks Antutu and Quadrant point, according to GSM Arena suggests that there is little difference in terms of performance is observable. Tweakers used Antutu and Quadrant, however, not to in reviews as the results are saying little, and by manufacturers for marketing purposes to be manipulated. Benchmark results of the final retailtoestellen can also differ much from that of current software – in both positive and negative way – so there is still no conclusions can be attached to these results.
Both variants have ram size of 2GB and a 2600mAh battery. The Exynos 5 Octa has two quadcores on board; one of them is based on the performance-oriented, but little fuel-efficient Cortex-A15, the other four processor cores are based on Cortex A7, which zuinger, but also much less powerful. The Snapdragon 600 has only four Krait-processor cores at 1.9 GHz on board.
Samsung presented the Galaxy S4 a week and a half ago during a private event in New York. Tweakers published as a hands-on with Samsung’s new phone, which is equipped with a 5″full hd amoled display and Android 4.2. As novelties, Samsung has a infrared transmitter and a screen that the finger detects if just above the display is floating.
