The Galaxy S22 series is official and like years past Samsung will ship its new devices with different chipsets depending on the region. Some models will be powered by Samsung’s own in-house Exynos 2200 chipset while others will get Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 platform. A new report from is bringing in more clarity on which chipset is coming to your region.
Samsung is going with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in South Korea, North America, Australia, India, the UAE, and South Africa. Europe and the UK will get Exynos 2200. Historically Samsung shipped its S-series flagships with Qualcomm chips in South Korea the US while other regions were left with the Exynos variant. It’s interesting to see why only Europe and the UK get the Exynos chip this time around.
Chipset | Region |
Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 | South Korea, North America, Australia, India, the UAE, South Africa |
Exynos 2200 | Europe |
Both chipsets are fabbed on 4nm process and have octa-core processors with a Cortex-X2 performance core, three Cortex-A710 cores, and four Cortex-A510 ones. We’ll wait for some official benchmarks to see how the two stack up.
