>>
>>51223667
I'll bite anon, why are [4] 2.7 GHz krait cores better than 8 big.little config cores?
>>
>>51223782
The exynos cores are stock ARM garbage and are way less power efficient than Krait cores. The SD note 4 gets better battery and better single-thread performance.

Go shill your exynos garbage elsewhere samsung shill, I know you want to sell those crappy exynos models because the profit margins on them are higher.
>>
>>51223831
But those exynos cores give you ~30% better multi-core performance though. Of course all that power will cost you some battery juice. However you will always be happy to know that your exynos processor will be able to playback HEVC video just fine. HEVC is going to become popular in 2016 as they improve its efficiency and encoding time. You're gonna want a phone powerful enough to play those HEVC video files.

Single thread performance is becoming more and more relevant too you know.

Finally you can OC all those exyno cores to 1.6-1.8 GHz. You literally can't OC that SD note 4

SD805 will have no issue with it.

>You literally can't OC that SD note 4

I don't even know what to say to this. I can't tell if you're taking the piss or what.

On second thought, you just sound like an idiot who bought the exynos note 4 (probably from some chink ebay seller for cheaps) and are now regretting your decision of not getting the superior SD model.

nah, I just look at the insane OC scores posted on geekbench and note the SD note 4 can't OC for shit. I just own an LG Volt if wanted to k ow that.

But it also gets shittier multi threaded performance tho.

Go take your snapdragon housefire and shove it up your ass. Snapdragon phones should come with a fire hazard warning label on them.

>>51223782
Other major differences i know of is that the sd note 4 has a faster gpu and average performing DAC compared to the exynos model's hi-fi dac

lol what. I've owned the N4, N5, and gave my mom a 1+2, and they've all overheated and throttled. Qualcomm is good with their viral marketing but Exynos always curb stomps Firedragon chips. We'll see who's the last one laughing when the 820 (custom ARM chip) comes out and actually performs worse than the 620 (standard A72 big.LITTLE ARM config) due to throttling.

Nexus 6P is the best device of 2015. No shitty bloat, and topnotch screen, camera, speakers and battery.
>>
>>51224477
Qualcomm is retarded. Who the fuck convinced them using a 2ghz+ chip on a fucking phone was a good idea? Unless they somehow manage to water cool their 820 housefires then yeah they will probably be outperformed by their own 620s.

True, though it bugs me that there is an audible hiss when listening to quieter parts of a song
>>
>>51224805
The average joe should care though. You are paying top dollar for that note 4, it should be top quality as well. I fucking hate snapdragon because all of their chips throttle so fucking much but their internal DACs are pretty decent.

Why can't a company get everything right the first time, fuck.
>>
>>51224674
>>51224707
It's not a home button, it's a fingerprint scanner. It's actually placed in a great spot. I have the 5X and it's awesome, just not convenient if the phone is on your desk.


>>51224797
yes, if you are a big guy (aka Bane) it is possible FOR YOU to bend the phone using all of your might. Normal people will not bend the phone in their pocket, or even if they try very hard.

You mentally challenged or something? What did you the think the iPhone's home button was? An iris scanner?

>i have the 5X and it's awesome
TOPKEK

>big guy (aka Bane)
see webum
>>
>>51225021
The home button is an on screen button which is *da dum* ON THE SCREEN.

Fingerprint scanner is only used when unlocking the phone or if you are making a payment using Android Pay.


If you can't understand the difference between a home button and a fingerprint scanner and how they can be separated you have no business calling someone else mentally challenged.

Fuck off retard
>>

>and topnotch screen

I'd wait for Anandtech's review and DisplayMate's measurements before making that call. Google claim it's latest generation Samsung OLED, but the display is significantly dimmer than the Note 5, features a very warm color temp (despite Google engineers claiming they paid close attention to white point) and has several reports of navbar burn-out after only a week.
>>
Then I'm probably gonna try to get the exynos note 4, though surely the difference between it and the SD version aren't really that much?
>>
>>51225181
Don't fall for the tripfaggot's memeing.

Get the snapdragon version, unless you don't like battery life. The exynos version is inferior in EVERY way except multicore score, where it must ramp up ALL 8 of it's cores - high and low power, just to squeeze past the SD version.

It is a shitty, shitty fucking chip.
>>
>>51225181
pretty sure the exynos version has much less developer support, which you absolutely need if you're buying something that comes with touchjizz out of the box

If that isn't important for you, go for it. But it was the reason I chose the oneplus 2 over the g4 so

slower than note 5 because of slower storage.

This. I don't understand why people keep recommending the snapdragon fire hazard version
>>
>>51228216
Because it has a far better performance and battery life, also better developer support
>>
>>51228316
but only better single core performance though, the exynos btfo the snapdragon on terms of multi core performance tho.

big.little configs are getting VERY popular, dev support is growing as a consequence.

The battery life I can agree on but it means jack shit when you root it and lower the frequencies a little.

>which you absolutely need if you're buying something that comes with touchjizz out of the box
just kill the touchjizz meme already, its irrelevant to the current samsung offerings (note4, S6, Note5).

Touchwizz is fine these days, obviously its not perfect, but its certainly good enough to use as a daily ROM and unless you REALLY are an android nerd who just likes to fuck around with ROMs and shit, you'll be fine with the stock ROM.
