I spend a good deal of time browsing web news articles on my phone and switching rapidly between apps. These were not cherry picked sites but rather the first three benchmarks I found after researching this. On this last site, which is the least damning, you'll still find that the categories in which the Snapdragon bests the Exynos, it does so by about 10% but the categories where the Exynos is the better performer (GeekBench 3 multi-core & Basemark ES 3.1 / Metal) it is better by 20%! Samsung Galaxy S7: Snapdragon 820 vs Exynos 8890 flavors compared This other site with a set of benchmarks shows that in the categories where the Snapdragon bests the Exynos, it does so by no more than 10% (mostly on graphics) but with the browser focused benchmarks the Exynos is better by 33% (Vellamo browser) and nearly DOUBLE the performance in the javascript centric "Sunspider" benchmark. Strange since both systems have the same amount of RAM. This first manual benchmarking of the two shows that the Exynos is about 10% faster in opening apps but is a wopping 33% faster in re-opening apps that should have been kept in memory but in the case of Snapdragon, they were not. So, why is it still sourcing from what must be a more expensive Qualcomm? I have no idea but these benchmarks suggest that Exynos is the more powerful choice in the categories that matter to most people (browsing and keeping apps in memory). Exynos is Samsung's own ARM fabrication SoC.
