| Samsung Exynos 5 Octa vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 |
When it comes down to comparing these two processors- the Samsung Exynos 5 Octa and the Qualcomm Snapragon 800- it comes down to saying which one is better for what work. The two are vastly different, when it comes to processing power, which is the biggest differentiation one can draw between the two, but there are a few other things that balance the comparison
The quad-core Snapdragon blows the octa-core Exynos 5 out of the water when it comes to pure clock speed. The former boasts an impressive 2.3GHz per core, while the latter is about 90% slower at 1.2 GHz. The Exynos trumps the Snapdragon in the sheer amount of cores and threads it can support: with its eight cores and eight simultaneous threads- to the four cores and four threads of the Snapdragon- the Exynos is much more suitable for multitasking and is more than capable of executing a larger amount of tasks, where the Snapdragon would most likely choke.
The statistics below also show this conclusion, that the two are superior to one another, but in different aspects altogether.
