It’s pretty much a known fact by now that Samsung has been struggling with its Exynos chip division, as the company’s most powerful Exynos 990 isn’t able to match the performance and efficiency capabilities of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 865. Both chipsets are found in various Galaxy S20 models, depending on which country you live in. If you’re residing in the U.S., any Galaxy S20 model you purchase is fueled by the Snapdragon 865, while any model sold in Samsung’s home market of South Korea was treated to an Exynos chipset. However, things took a different and reportedly, an ugly turn when it was decided that the Galaxy S20 models sold in South Korea would feature a Snapdragon 865, not an Exynos 990.

If Samsung’s Exynos chip division decided that it was in the best interest of their customers that Snapdragon 865 versions of the Galaxy S20 should be sold in South Korea, then they’ll probably receive lots of two thumbs-up from customers reading this. Unfortunately, that decision wasn’t taken lightly by Samsung shareholders, as they reportedly grilled employees in a recent meeting, while also asking if there were any plans to improve the Exynos chip division.
